Well i think selectors finding an opening batsman who can make run fast + stay long time on pitch so i think they have selected M vijay... because As you look at our squad ,,only two batsman are able to play such type of innings . viru and gambhir so i think it'll be an another option if anyone will be injured or face any problem..
He needs to perform well on test match so far we seen his talent in ODIs and T20. Don't forgot Vijay's record in domestic cricket is much better then Virat and he has good experience too and he is Regular opener so his job only to cover injury if Viru or Gutti have any injury problems.
Well Even Dinesh Karthik has been performing well apart from his keeping...Donno why selectors have left him...And Even though the performances of Mohd Kaif in the recent past have been excellent they have been keeping him far away and he wasnt even selected for IPL too...
Well I don't think so Vijay is selected as a middle order batsman and we know that BCCI always select 3 specialist openers for series and we all knows Dinesh Karthik is not a regular openers. Also Virat had a good series but it was ODI series while Vijay playing on good in this format. But yes I would say Virat should be in team instead of Badinath. He was selected because he is from same zone where Kris Srikanth belongs too.
No,this time Dhoni have to do hard work for get the series against Aferica. Africans are good fighter.
I have read about the turmoil in South African camp as regards the selection process and the whole committee was sacked a few days back. Is the issue sorted out or still hanging? This uncertainty could surely work in India's advantage as their players would be little demoralized! Regards, RightMan
Test Ranking 1. India with 125 points 2. South Africa with 120 points 3. Australia with 118 points India should win the series and extend their points to retain the no.1 spot since India have very less Test matches this year.
Not very less but this would be last series in this calendar year. So we don't have any test matches now.
yes.. we will win the match.. but RSA is playing good nowadays and they have a strong fielders too.. we have to improve in our fielding side...
