    Today's match was a tight one and we deserve the Victory :)

    But only one thing.

    Why they didn't Test Sehwag's bowling.

    Since he is a part time bowler he can make some magics at a crucial situations.

    He would have tested atleast with one over.

    ^^^ I don't know why Dhoni doesn't uses Sehwag to bowl... Ganguly used him time to time and he also got wickets.
    By the way match was superb.

    Dhoni have his own tactics to spoil Indian players.

    Why did the selection committee chose Jadeja and kohli ??

    What about Rohit Sharma,Yousuf Patan..etc What they are doing why they didn't select them?

    I feel Yousuf Pathan is a better all rounder than Jadeja.

    Rohit Sharma is Good in Fielding and also a Good batsman compared to that of Kohli.

    Why this selection Committee is playing with the lives of good and talented cricketers.

    Well BCCI always like to do so! We are telling for more then 8 months that Rohit Sharma is much better player then Virat Kohli but BCCI still yet to realize about it! Don't know why Dhoni pick him ahead of Dinesh Karthik who also a good batsmen!

    414 and 411 ???
    It was a thriller, but I think BCCI should be a bit more serious about the ground size and pitches.

    I think this is not a issue with size and pitch but now we are watching some T20 effects on ODI too where batsmen are open their arms and hits big shots without any fear and in future we might see 300 runs will not be a big total to chase!

    You are right, but such batsmen will fail for sure when the pitch has some bounce and grass on it.

    Yes and we know India have only one pitch which has natural grass and it's Mohali's pitch! BCCI should think about pitches as we are watching big scores in Ranji matches too!

    It is heartening to see a very good bench strength at least in the batting department. There is no harm in giving chance to everybody once in a while and see if they are up to the task.

    I personally like the rotation in the lower middle order, as it is keeping everybody on their toes, making them give their 100%! :)

    Rohit sharma is an average player. Kohli was the captain of winning u-19 world cup team. he bats well. Dhoni gave many opportunities to Rohit infact much opportunities as compared to kohli. Let Kolhi prove himself.
    As far as jadeja is concerned, I don.t think he deserves to be in team neither does yousuf. Middle order is full of hard hitters like yuvraj, raina and dhoni. I think Irfan pathan as an all rounder should have been selected.

    first of all congrats India, well done job.

    To stay in the match, India should take wickets at first itself and should field well too, then it will be very easy to win the match

    I am not hearing anything about Irfan Pathan doing well even in domestic cricket. Where is he these days? :confused:

    Sreesanth got a look in when he did well in domestic circuit and I am sure Irfan would be lapped up equally well if he manages to bowl well in internal games.
    His batting does come in handy at times... but the point is he has to bowl well!

    Ya same here. Irfan is out of news now a days. Don't know why. Well My point is that we should have some serious all-rounder in the team (serious because now a days people are thinking that harbhajan can bat too :D)

    Fitness DOES matter friend :)
    Kaif is not fit at all! did we see him playing in IPL 2? No because of fitness issues.
