We need to change some of the players immediately. Rohit Sharma should be replaced by Rayudu, Ishant Sharma by Umesh Yadav, Ashwin by Amit Mishra or Pragyan Ojha, shikhar dhawan also should be made to sit out for his indisciplined performance and wastage of talent. We need to plan bowling in a bvetter way...
Immediately change Rohit by Rayadu/Gambhir,Ishant by Umesh Yadav/Vinay Kumar and Ashwin by Nayeem or any torated Spinner. Then only India can win.Don,t waste time.
Re: Next match, Dhoni must drop Ashwin and Raina

yes, Ashwin must be dropped from the rest of the matches. He is useless. Did nothing in the last 5 matches. I am shocked to see him in every match included in the playing eleven,
todays lose is only do to MS DHONI. why rohit is kept in the team? why rahane is kept in the team? insted of rahane we should select S binny. this pitch is somutch fevarable to INDIAN batsman. no batsman of INDIA hard utilised it. do not think that I am A dhoni hater. in the next matche we should include binny,raidu. as far as dhawan is concern he is a capable player we should give more chances to him..

NO GAMBHEER. we will not select politisions like gambheer,sewag. there is no need of droping sir jadeja. I think harbajan will comeback in to the team . what is the need of youvaraj? he is the worst batsman in india against short pitch bowling. in 2013 we hard seen how he played against AUS,SA, WI. yuvi was A great batsman.
Our opening pair comprising of Shikhar Dhavan and Rohit Sharma is good only here in India. Rohit should bat at no 5 and Shikhar Dhavan should be dropped. Look at the performances by both of these batsmen, they are no where near the international class performances. One should not pick up the national squad based on the IPL performance. Have you ever seen the wrestlers from the WWF playing for their countries? IPL is similar as that of WWF. If India has to keep the interests of the cricketing fan going and BCCI has to remain the richest controler of the game, the national squad has to be selected based on the performances in the testing cricket and not fun and enjoying cricket. Drop all the non performers. There is no need to follow the quota system. Only the best should reach there and not by quota. Look at Shami, he is consistent in getting the wickets of the top batsmen of the opposition. Why can only he delivers the ball close to 140KM/s. Why not the others stress to keep the average speed above 135KMPS. Look at the bowling speeds of the opposition bowlers, they all look fearsome with e pace, while our bowlers indicate that they are tired and their body language is of already lost kind of person. The performance of any Indian team has been always most inconsistent irrespective of the legends playing for it. Why can't we have the killer instinct? Our team has been depending upon someone grate at that time but never a unit.
Rohit is 'home lion' and has successful failure record in overseas pitch and he got enough chances to prove his ability but always fails. Gautam Gambhi is better choice at overseas matches but he would not get place due to his rebel against Dhoni in 2011 and till N. Srinivasan is in BCCI.
M. S. Dhoni has poorest record on overseas tour - specially in test matches. But any selector speaks against him (like Amarnath), BCCI sacked him immediately.
Selection team is more with politics than selection.
