Squad: MS Dhoni (capt & wk), Virender Sehwag, Gautam Gambhir, Virat Kohli, Suresh Raina, Rohit Sharma, Ravindra Jadeja, Harbhajan Singh, Praveen Kumar, Zaheer Khan, Ashish Nehra, Pragyan Ojha, Ashok Dinda, R Ashwin, Saurabh Tiwary. Do you think India can win Asia cup with above players???
I am glad that the selectors are ready to show the door to players not performing. If not for anything, it would at least make some senior players realize that their place in the final eleven is not forever and that they need to perform... to be in the team! Regards, RightMan
I guess Yuvi is dropped to give him a warning for the upcoming worldcup and also rohit sharma is playing good.
It doesn't depend on the squad only but he mindset, fitness and the intent of the player. The mindset with which India played in the ongoing series will lead them to no where.
Many time this kind of indirect warnings and messages passed on to 'Season Players', does that make any difference. IMO it only works for one or two series G!
IMO 3 players will be very crucial for the Asia cup and they are Virender Sehwag, Gautam Gambhir and Ms,Dhoni. They will have to play well because they are the most experienced players in the team. Sehwag is a key factor of the game. India need Blast from him now.
I think Sachin should have played, since this is an important tournament, which we lost it to Sri lanka last time around, due to Ajantha mendis...... Sachin has had enough rest after IPL, so he should have played this, that too in the absences of yuvi, sachin is a must....
I appreciate selectors for dropping Yuvi &Y. Pathan. Recently hey performed poor cricket. There are lot of young talent cricketers are available in India.
Age seems to be finally catching up with Sachin... as he seems to rest more these days, than play! Regards, RightMan
What a match we had last night....Ind V Pak. Bhajji hit the 6 and then raised his bat towards Shohaib Akhtar and he just showed the way to pavilion to Bhajji. Well well these things expected in such a big game. But my concern is the batting of MS DHoni. I do not understand why he comes at no.4 and play terribly in defensive mode. I have noticed this since last year or so where Dhoni comes at no.4 and India lost the match OR fought very hard to avoid the defeat.
