I agree. We do not need a third seamer.Let me become 100% fit then only select him. In last English Tour also he played the same trick and sat in dressing room for the entire tour due to cramps.
High time to give chance to young performing fast bowler like Ashok Dinda. Selectors must look forward and slect a team for future especially when it is home series.

Dinda will be thrashed all around for his friendly pace. We need some physically strong youngsters for pace bowling.

Dinda also always bowls above 85 mph and many a times touches 90 mph. do u call 90 mph a friendly pace?
Hope the Selectors take the Aussies way of Selection and not select half-fit players. India needs 'FIT' 11 players on the field come the First Test. Zaheer needs to be rested as India needs fully fit players to take the field for the England series.
Throw him out of the team. He get injured in every next match. Better look for physically fit bowler. he plays just 10% of the match and draw full salary

Pathan YES, but Praveen Kumar needs some more time/practice. His bowling hasnt been very good in the domestic matches as well.....

Yes, he achieved whatever he could for him as well as country. Therefore it would be in fitness of things, he gracefully retires and give chance to other young players.
can't understand about injury logic behind these indian cricketers they are fit for IPL/CLT20,even for advertisement but not for there own country.so shame......

Dont feel sorry mate. BCCI themselves are to be blamed for being money oriented than cricketing establishment.
Zaheer has long gone. Due to many lobbiest he is still there. Secondly, why we need to feel for Indian Cricket when the establishment and players have no passion. sorry state isnt it.
