India's best wicket keeper by far. The other names being mentioned are not Test class keepers.

Saha a poor choice. saha has got hsi fair share of chances. Why not give sanju samson a chance. He is well equipped to play on bouncy as well as turning track. Definitely something is not going well with the thought process of this selection committee

Naman Ojha looks the best at the moment...like i said samson is not a wicket keeper...he can try as a batsman but he is not a wicket keeper...and kohli is sold on saha just as he is sold on pace (i.e. aaron and yadav)...so bad luck ojha...

Saha's keeping has been questionable. In the first Test against SA, his keeping was not clean and even effected a Stumping off his chest.

selectors are adhering the quoto system for east. so saha is playing.
if not D.karthik who is better batsmen than saha and dhoni has to be in Indian team.
see his averages in the tests,one day etc for the limited intermittent chances given to him.

He is not even close to Dhoni. Come on nobody can replace Dhoni as of now because no one can match his caliber..

It is too early to say that saha can or can not replace Dhoni.

yes i have seen keeping of kirmani live...not engineer ...but his figures prove he is the best...look how many wickets kirmani and engineer have in how many tests and compare them with dhoni's no. of wickets in tests...even now he is 3rd or 4th in all time list of wicket keepers...

only gilchrist and boucher have taken more wickets behind the stumps in international cricket...

dhoni has played only 2 or 3 tests more than kirmani and taken close to 100 wickets more...

Statistic doesn\'t reflect actual ability. It is also saying Dhoni has taken half the wickets (stumping) in first class cricket and same numbers in test cricket (played 20 innings more) compared to Kirmani. During Engineer and Kirmani\'s time Gavaskar and Solkar used to open bowling in test crickets.
