Ashwin must decide whether to be a batsmen or a bowler. He is not good at both. Let Ojha take over Ashwin & show his class in bowling again. How often he has to beg before selectors despite his proven records as a bowler. Only disadvantage for Ojha it seems, he does no get pushed.

Ashwin is getting trained for CKS for IPL5,don't you see that.They are taking IPL serious now ,these series are just a vacation (spending last IPL paid money with family).Now again the bazzar will open for money lover cricketrs.
despite critics complaining about his average for the past 2 years, ricky's average for 2010,2011, and 2012 so far is: 1650 aggregate runs at 43.42. still respectable and better than the new youngsters tried.

cricket Australia told them to play the game till 5th day otherwise public will sue them for finishing game on 3rd day & will demand for refund of 2 days.
How can our batsmen lose their wickets to spinners ? We have been acknowledged as the best players of spin in the world !! The ball that got Sachin was pedestrian . It should have disappeared from the park !!
Pointing must have been given chance to bat for 10 more overs because match will not enter day 5 tea time also so clarke made hurry to declare he must have waited for punter 100

And Punter looks like a G W Bush cartoon character
It's like living the moments again and again. Sehwag : His quick-far 62 was a typical one.. get some quick runs and get back to the pavillion in 15 overs.. Gambhir : This guy should talk less and let his bat do all the talking.. Dravid : poor fella. after a brilliant summer in England, he great fall from the greater heights is a like a greek tragedy. Tendulkar : Well, we all saw it comning. The so-called 'Mahashatak' got the better of him. He comes, gets some quick 6-7 runs and then gets into a cocoon, painfully crawl to get a 20 or 25 and then gets out to a delivery that he would have dispatched out of the park during his prime. The beginning of the end of an era! Laxman : End of the road for him. even though he scores a century, which's unlikely. Dhon(g)i Baba : Unfit to play test cricket. Enough of his clown dance on good test pitches. He should stick only to ODIs/T20s. Kohli : Decent series,huge responsiblities ahead. Saha : should be groomed as Dhon(g)i's replacement in Tests. Ashwani : By now, he must have realized how tougher life is beyond T20s/IPL. Ishant : should be dropped immediately and sent to Adaman Islands to practice with the natives.. just a 9-days wonder. Zaheer : I am sure he also knows that the end is near. may be 1 more year. Umesh Yadav : Stick to the speed, else he would end up like Venkatesh Prasad (the slowest fast bowler) :-D . Learning curve ahead.
