Dhoni now does not even deserve place in the team, he should get aside like prior from test team.

Why are they playing musical chair?

These two teams seem to have pre-decided who is to win which match.Imagine after the great show at Lords the Indian team seems to have told England,well mate it is now your turn in Southampton.England surrendered tamely at Lords and we returned the compliment at Southampton.With the present composition of the governing set ups, well anything may be possible!I am no expert in any cricketing matters but this drama somehow seems familiar.

Support CWG stars

It is better to support our great Stars at Commonwealth Games. These sportsmen struggle a lot with minimum facilities and horrible selection politics in our country. Yet with determination they have made our country proud by winning medals at CWG.
Well nothing to say about the Dhobi ghat performance. Shadows of 2011 drubbing seems to be still continuing. Dhobi team has enjoyed a lot with BCCI support. They never showed a single dot of professional touch in this test match. Dhobi himself has not lead in front by performing.
Please stop watching Indian cricket and support sportsmen representing our nation at Glassgow...common India...

Gavaskar though an opener par excellence, was a very defensive player during his heydays. Many of the matches which India could have won were drawn or lost due to his defensive tactics. It is very easy for him to criticise his juniors now that he is not in the middle of the field! Can he easily forget that he made 36 in 60 overs in the first world Cup!

That is what is reuired to stay at crease notout... He remained not-out many times to save India from defeats that against best bowling attacks in world when India does not good batsman to score 500 runs or good bowlers to take 20 wickets in 1970-80s . Same application was reuired to stay at crease on yesterday to save test match. Hope you got the answer. He has complete rights to criticize our current team. Once famous Imran khan famously said that Sunil Gavaskar is main difference between victory and loss for Pakistan in their matches against India

I agree with you Yogesh. I have followed practically each and every innining of Sunil Gavaskar (on Radio and TV)from 1971 to 1987. What you have said is 100% true.

Gavaskar was a batsman par excellence. It was he who lifted the team in west indies after the debacle in the previous tour. He is on the dot in criticizing the team which has simply not evolved. We now feel what Sachin, Rahul and Laxman used to play
