1. G. Gambhir 2. V. Sehwag 3. M. Vijay 4. C. Pujara 5. V.Kohli 6. A. Rahane 7. Dhoni or Dinesh karthik (if possible) 8. Ashwin 9. Zaheer 10.Ojha 11. Umesh or Ishant or Parveen or Murali karthik (if possible)
After this series bring D.Karthik for Dhoni and Let Gambhir be captain for Test matches.. Bring in Irfan pathan as allrounder.
Sachin should be dropped. how many chances he needs to bring down his batting average below 50.We all know that Yuvi does not know how to negotiate a turning ball.Zaheer is unfit and over the hill,
As long as these fellows are in BCCI we can never expect our team to improve and compete with top teams....let them understand that sachin is not doing any honarary service and the team's performance is at stake when you know a person is failig continously and the selectors dont have the guts to drop him....sachin will say that he continues to enjoy his game and who is bothered about his enjoying the game as long as the team does not win...I hope sachin plays all the tests and we lose the series badly and he fails miserably...atleast then there will be a consensus and pressure on him to announce his retirement.....
1. arrogant sehwag- 1 century and 20 failures 2. dhoni - non performer 3. sachin - not hanging boots despite loss of form and age not on side. 4. zaheer- totally unfit 5. ashwin- thinking that he is batsman in team 6 yuvi- in tea despite question mark over fitness 7 kohli- overconfident from sucess in ODIs 8 gauti- talks more, bats less
One of the reason why India is not doing well is bcaz it is playing with 10 players, Sachin is a dummy player. It is hightime the selector take a call and ask him to retire immediately.

in fact india is playing with only 1 player- pujara. rest all no show.
Is int it strange that the likes of Sehwag, Dhoni, Virat etc have collectively failed? And what about our inept bowling? With just three bowlers England bundled the entire team out - only two spinners and both clicked n both innings. So a deeper analysis is required.

You have raised a good point. I agree that all the batsmen except (Pujara, Ashwin and Gambhir) batted poorly in the Mumbai Test. But Sachin has failed consistently in the past few Tests in India (including the Tests against NZ). Why should he get so many chances when age and form are not on his side? When will guys like Rahane or Tiwary ever get a chance?
Sachin should ask from his earlier legends for the reason of failures. When Hussey can score run why not Sachin. Sachin should focus on his foot movement. He is showing some lack of confidence against spiners.

he should be kicked by foot not to perform or improve foot movement. burden to Indian cricket
Sachin Gendulkar himself decide whether he would like to play or not? What a country? Where is the BCCI Or selection Board? A greedy cricketer himself decide 2 play or not , what a joke? He said hundred times he will not like 2 take retirement till his son will included in the cricket team. He got MP post from congress is not enough deal. He wants much more and more. What a cricket in India? All young players see the faces of these old man who played cricket arbitrarily.

Neither Sachin will retire on his own nor the board or selectors have the guts to ask him to retire or drop him because there is lot of stake involved. there will be pressure from sponsors on the board to let him continue as they have signed long term agreements with Sachin.

Don't ask for Sachin's retirement. TEAM INDIA is his own property.
