Wasim Jaffer, Age -35 years (February 16, 1978) Sachin Tendulkar, Age -39 years (April 24, 1973)
Wasim is good. He had his chance. He grabbed some and dropped some. How long is a guy who is 35 yrs old expected to last. If Sachin (who is virtually super human) is not expected to last long? Need to get younger blood tested - with enough rope! Yes, stop giving the same people who have been tested repeatedly cahnce after chance!

your sachin - the super human has been a super duper flop. if he can play , why not jaffer
going by the madness of this idea, when jaffer fails again after or two years, we will still have a non proven opener. jaffer is no great shakes and will do nothing great in the meanwhile.
so its short term loss long term loss.
jaffer is not a proven performer at international level. at international level, a good batsman averages 40 and india's batting standards are high.
his domestic averages mean nothing fort his sucess at international levels.
when will these short sighted ppl understand the ability to win matches against world class opposition is not certfiied by domestic success.
these are the sort of guys who will bankrupt a company.
there is no scope for short term view for the indian side. this side needs to invest in youngster asap.only a proven great player or good player can be there for experience.kartik and jaffer are not of this category.kaif is highly arguable at best.
first through out MSD. There are lot of deserving players in India for longer version of the game. You don't want shameless people every time walk on the field & make a mockery of Indian team.

well said muhammed. Dhoni is biggest liability in test & t-20 intl based on his last 5 yrs records against quality bowling. He shoudl be allowed to play only in ODI where manipulative batting skill can work

naturally wasim will be asked to carry sachin's outfits as he will be asked to fit into sachin outfit in Indian team.
