India A to play 3 first class matches on the A tour to WI, June 2012


Recommended Posts

Rahul Sharma and Akshay Darekar are there. Akshay is a good left arm spinner' date=' taking lot of wickets in FC. Should have picked Awana and Aaron for RP and Bhuvnesh.[/quote'] Rahul Sharma and Darekar? Are they going to be our future spinners in tests? Great. How long will it take India to reach bottom then?

The likely 11- Dhawan. Mukund, Rahane, Pujara, Rohit, Manoj, Saha, Rahul, Shami, Dinda, RP Singh RPS' name there is like a sore thumb. Should really have got Awana in tat squad. Hopefully he will continue to pick wickets and force the selectors to name him in this squad.

Awana & Abu Nechim in place of RP & Bhuvaneswar Kumar would've been ideal.Aaron is a certainty in the India squad so he was not selected.Dinda,Shami are good picksthough.I can't really understand why Jalaj Saxena manages to get in these squads of India-A or Rest of India?Does he has some kind of godfather coz he's a club level cricketer.

Rahul Sharma is the only young leggie in the country (besides tried and tested Chawla and Mishra), has done well in the chances he's got so far. Don't see anything wrong with his selection. As for Darekar, he's done well, taken loads of wickets, but I would have preferred to see Iqbal Abdulla being given a run, but a terrible domestic FC season seems to have spoiled his chances. Same is the case with Bharghav Bhatt as well. Who else would you have liked to see instead of these two?

RP in the A team is a joke,he doesn't have domestic performances behind him to get a spot in the team, also he wasn't injured so they have him in the team to see how he bowls lol, Awana , Gony, P Singh rightly deserve that spot also Abu Nechim.Also there should have been a bigger squad or separate teams for 4 day and shorter versions.
