We have played three matches and so far we have not played our best bowler Ojha.Just being in Auistralia does not mean that we have to play only pace bowlers who are being hit all around. Play Zaheer, Umesh, Aswin and Ojha.
team india do what needs to be done... drop laxman/gambhir/sehwag/dhoni from test team now... appoint kohli vice captain under either sachin or dravid for a year or so... dont recall yuhi/bhajji... bring back rp / irfan / parvin / raina / mishra ... bring in pujara / rohit / manoj ... take some like naman ojha as wk for tests... indian cricket will be back to its winning ways... but all this is not going to happen coz too much money is riding on useless sehwag/gambhir/dhoni and very very selfish laxman is supported by southie media...

VVS is not the only failure in this team. Everybody except for Sachin and to a certain extent Virat Kohli can be termed as failures.

It is not that either BCCI or the selectors do not know what needs to be done especially after such an historical debacle as never before. Every day reams and reams of print appear in the media from experts all over he world with maladies and medicines. Endless TV debates happen on the issue but all become more of an academic exercise and things move on in the same ‘sab chalta hai’ culture land because the main problem is the people who are supposed to act just don't care and neither are they answerable to any body. These cash rich arrogant masters of Indian cricket have rebuffed no less a person than the sports minister of the country when he dared to suggest that BCCI should be placed under RTI. Professional decisions is a big NO, NO with these people. They neither have sense of national pride nor the sense of shame.Even after the humiliating 3--0 drubbing we hear still there is going to be no place for the man in best form, that is Rohit Sharma for the Adelaide Test ! Even if a fifth bowler is felt necessary no one can be asked to make room for him. It is not professionalism but personality considerations which form the basis of decisions of playing XI. If at all Rohit Sharma is to play only Virat K is to make way for him! With such unprofessional approach of the Indian team think tank what better result one can expect from this Indian side ?
All cricket column or story writers refer "sachin tendulkar" at least once, since he is most searched sports name in india, even they don't need to (some positive or some negative). This is to make sure their article get READ by few people. Otherwise, they just have to read their own words. Cricket auto biographies refer something or other to include remarks on him to make the book presense (otherwise who cares?). This include chappenlli, shoib, gilly, manjrekar etc on daily basis. How pitty.
