but i still cannot digest the fact that Wriddiman Saha has been selected.... Ya, Dinesh Karthik has not done justice to his selection, but there is parthiv patel if you want back up. I have not seen Saha performing wonders both with bat or with gloves... Parthiv has scored 700+ runs in this ranji season.....and has healthy average Saha has scored just 350 odd runs and not done anything extraordinary before as well...... So on what basis are the selectors picking the squad.....
^^^ Question of the Millennium!! Man i still can't understand what they were thinking while selection!
Badrinath is in a great form. BCCI wants to create separate squads for test matches and short formats so, virat is not selected and murli got selected! well I guess this thinking also belongs to the selection of saha in the test squad instead of kartik. Kartik is more suitable for ODIs and T20 matches rather than test matches. Now this vary concept collides when we talk about parthiv patel. so there is a sequence of questions..
On your point Cheteshwar Pujara is most suitable player for team India and hitting 3 Tripple century in one single season is something better then anyone since no Indian player did in one season! But he always ignore by BCCI, Why?
I think India will win the test match as batsman are bowlers are in good form for India. It will be tough competition but India will win
Rohit its not about our personal opinions! I am not a selector..am I?? yaar I was just giving a wild guess. I too don't know the reason why pujara is not being selected!
Well I just talking on BCCI's selection policy. When they selected Kris Srikanth as selection head I was too happy but he also doing nothing right and talented players are still not coming in team.
yes you are right.. he is just sitting and watching the games and saying the we will the match.. he is not taking any steps to include talented players in our team..
But this is BCCI and they have no thoughts on bench strength. What if Dhoni injured, their will be no back up for him.
South Africa give fight to come on no 1 position in the test ranking,this is not a baby team like bangladesh thats why Dhoni must have to make good game plan,to beat SA for NO 1.
Indian Team Being a blend of Experience and youngsters has a great chance to win the competition wait and it would be a tough competition
he made this century after the selection! And I am not saying that he has not got talents! I just think that BCCI is making different squads for different formats and we should appreciate this policy as the number of matches is increased now a days and rotation policy is one of the major steps that BCCI has taken. More matches with same players is not a very good idea if we take fitness in consideration!
Well I think this is just Zonal based selection only and sometime it will finish some players who always show good performance but fail to get place in team. Why we need full strength test team against Bangladesh? Shouldn't we go with youth team to give some international playing experience?
I guess... you are right. If only had BCCI listened to your advice, we would be having the services of Yuvi and Dravid against very strong South Africa! Regards, RightMan
