Sooda Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Tests Gambhir Jaffer Dravid Yuvraj Venugopal Rao/Badrinath Kaif MSD Munaf Sreesanth Ranadeb Bose? Powar maybe ....not much there by way of 'change' but it would be unfair to pick 'youth' over GG who was good in the SA tour matches or Kaif who deserves a good test run. Venu or Badri shd be there at 5...possibly Venu, hes been more consistent over a longer time... ODIs tricky one this Dinesh Kartik Uthappa Dravid Yuvraj MSD Raina Joginder Powar Ranadeb Bose Zaheer Munaf I haven't been that adventurous with my selections really have I... Link to comment

DesiChap Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Re: What do you want the starting XIs vs Banglas to be... Apo...Kumble has not yet retired from Tests...No way he will be dropped unless he want to sit out Link to comment
Chandan Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Re: What do you want the starting XIs vs Banglas to be... Tests: Sehwag Gambhir Dravid Tendulkar Yuvraj Ganguly Dhoni Sreesanth (VRV if Sree is injured) Zaheer Kumble Munaf If I'm not wrong, Jaffer had hit a ton on the last test played by India. So how can you drop him? On what basis have you not included Laxman? I say drop/rest Sachin from ODIs and Sehwag from tests for their good. Link to comment
apocalypse Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Re: What do you want the starting XIs vs Banglas to be... He will do that soon. We need to build team which will last for few years to come. Not someone who has retired from one part of the game. Link to comment
DesiChap Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Re: What do you want the starting XIs vs Banglas to be... Apo My bad....I thought I had put Jaffer in...... Jaffar for Tests instead of Gambhir Link to comment

MundaPakistani Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Re: What do you want the starting XIs vs Banglas to be... To be honest Ghambir doesn't strike me as a test opener. Link to comment
Sooda Posted April 13, 2007 Author Share Posted April 13, 2007 Re: What do you want the starting XIs vs Banglas to be... lol...Gambs. We might win with that lineup... Actually VVS almost has to be there...isn't he VC in tests still Link to comment
Sooda Posted April 13, 2007 Author Share Posted April 13, 2007 Re: What do you want the starting XIs vs Banglas to be... No Munda you're probably right...but he deserves a run to see whether thats for real. He did do ok in SAf. In any case there aren't any other REAL contenders... Link to comment
yoda Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Re: What do you want the starting XIs vs Banglas to be... anyone but tendulkar, harby, zaheer in tests. anyone but ganguly, sehwag, agarkar, harby in ODIs. Link to comment
veer Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Re: What do you want the starting XIs vs Banglas to be... i would drop dhoni too.... he is too much into his advertising.. he probably needs reality check.. he has lost the plot.. Link to comment
chanakya Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Re: What do you want the starting XIs vs Banglas to be... i would say manoj tiwari and ranadeb bose in tests for sure. In ODIs Joginder Singh. Give him and any other decent all rounder one finds a long long rope. 20 ODIs at least. 10 in the sub continent and 10 in seaming and bouncy pitches. Link to comment
karina Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Re: What do you want the starting XIs vs Banglas to be... Who cares. They'll probably keep all the seniors intact despite rumors. Only a fool would waste time and money to watch this useless team. Link to comment
Chandan Posted April 14, 2007 Share Posted April 14, 2007 Re: What do you want the starting XIs vs Banglas to be... No Munda you're probably right...but he deserves a run to see whether thats for real. He did do ok in SAf. In any case there aren't any other REAL contenders... Gambhir got a number of chances from the Bombay test in 2004 to SL series towards the end of 2005. He did not grab his chances in those 10+tests and hence had to be dropped. If I'm not wrong, he did not play any international match in SA. So wonder how you say that he did ok in SA!! Link to comment
