Ashwin and Bhajji r both off spinners and both are good. I agree with Kumble totally. Ashwin has the guts to bowl during powerplay overs and bhajji can bowl during regular overs. After Kumble retired from International cricket, bhajji had a lot of pressure to perform and this kind of reduced his performance level. With Ashwin also coming good, not a bad idea if the team goes with two off spinners on a regular basis.

I think he lost all his potency doing girls, even had it not been the case he's useless bowlers, who can perform only against teams which are traditionally weak against spin.
Under srikanths period , we won world cup , we reached no 1 in tests & one days. When he played , he brought the WC in 1983. NO ONE HAS DONE SO MUCH FOR INDIAN CRICKET THAN SRIKANTH.He is the GOD of INDIAN CRICKET

Even after giving consistant performace with bat and ball, why is Manoj Tewary being left out, a cricketer who has to sit 15 matches after scoring a hundred, not getting a chance in T20 even after picking up 4 wickets in last match

Srikaant is no more the chairman of the selection panel- so u wont be able to see mukund vijay badrinath and balajee in indian team
And make Piyush Chawla and Amit Mishra open the bowling. The short stature of these two and their 80 kmph deliveries would literally make the opponent's opening batsmen pee in their pants.
Re: Why can't India pick up 5 spin bowlers in a match?

Already when zahir and balaji bowl the batsmen fall asleep waiting for the balll to reach them.
