Lord Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 Rohit is a Mumbai Quota player...Selectors will have to face the wrath of Mumbai based BCCI if they don't select a quota player ' date=' so they play safe :hysterical:[/quote'] why not Sir Aggy then:haha: Link to comment
vvvslaxman Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 If there is a Mumbai quota there is no better candidate than Rahane. He has been in sublime form. Link to comment

spectre Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 n u agree that Dhoni was being inconsistent in playing IPL 2008 n skipping test series in SL' date='yes or no?[/quote'] beat around the bush dont you, whats their ages, who said i want to play in 2011 WC and win it, what format is WC2011 I just want him to be at this peak form for the WC, if playing all ODIs and skipping t20s to be in rhythm,so be it Becuase if he is not in good form, its going to hurt Indias chances badly, since t hey wont drop him He can play as many IPLs as he wants after the WC Link to comment

Show_stopper Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 Kohli is now way ahead at the pecking order for the 12th man spot and in the 11 to replace one of the bowlers Kohli will be a definite starter in the tri-series because of the absence of Sachin. And there might be a good chance Yuvraj might not recover on time..if so then even Rohit will be playing. Link to comment

vvvslaxman Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 Rohit got a triple hundred between now and before he was dropped. Hope he gained some maturity. If so that will be a good news for us I have nothing against Rohit. He is a talented player. But his total lack of application really ticked everyone off. The kind of form he showed in CB series made everyone think "Ah we got a gem here". Hope he capitalizes on the opportunity. He is an excellent fielder as well. Wish him well. Link to comment
Lord Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 i just wanted a simple yes or no answer:giggle: but anyways beat around the bush dont you' date=' whats their ages, who said i want to play in 2011 WC and win it, what format is WC2011[/quote'] WC 2011 is ODI ,so what?do tests,specially away test series not matter. as for ages,Sachin's older but fairly fit too,just look at his running b/w the wickets I just want him to be at this peak form for the WC, if playing all ODIs and skipping t20s to be in rhythm,so be it me too,but i'm willing to trust hs judgement in how e goes about it.i wont doubt his character if he plays in IPL n doesnt play meaningless ODIs Becuase if he is not in good form, its going to hurt Indias chances badly, since t hey wont drop him He can play as many IPLs as he wants after the WC how do IPL affect his form in WC?It may take physical toll but hes good enuf to combat it WC isnt the be all n end all.i want him to win every match for India,but respect his decision to play in IPL.there r lots of things that go behind the scenes Link to comment
urbestfriend Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 I dont think Rohit can make it to the 11, he has earned an easy call here after screwing up all the chances he got Kohli is now way ahead at the pecking order for the 12th man spot and in the 11 to replace one of the bowlers It doesn't matter whether he can make it to the 11 or not, but he doesn't deserve a recall. He is known for his inconsistency and his Ranji form proves that. He has got out for less than 30 every time except on two occasions in Ranji matches. Vijay,Badri, Pandey, Rahane or Dhavan are more deserving candidates than Nohit sharma. Link to comment
vvvslaxman Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 Manish has scored over 600 plus runs at a staggering strike rate of 76 !!! Link to comment
champ Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 sachin takes best decisions .. no surprises there .. but selecting rohit was not justified .. it was right moment to draft in irfan .. i am wondering now his exclusion with team is more to do with political reasons rather than performance .. hard luck irfan ..

vvvslaxman Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 Don't think Dhoni likes Irfan very much. Even when he was in the squad he was not played by Dhoni. I think he is happy with Praveen Kumar and Ishant. Praveen brings a lot more to the table than Ishant though. Link to comment
spectre Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 Lord - all this explanation for defending a simple statement that he should skip IPL :giggle: You can go to major distance to defend whatever he does I will have this sarcastic feeling if he skips India matches but plays in IPL, that's about it Link to comment

vvvslaxman Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 Isn't Praveen omitted from the squad? Didn't see that. In that case it is unfair. Praveen is a far better ODI bowler than Ishant. Link to comment

Equinox Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 Has Ishant been "rested"? I guess he is too good to bowl against Bangladesh eh?:winky::hysterical: Link to comment

You didnt give a straight answer for the below point, why should i return the favour :giggle: and why bring Dhoni here, keep it short whether you agree or not, and fyi, i would have told same thing if he played for CSK, happy Link to comment
