Have the all rounders become extinct in India ??

[champ]

every team has their share of fast bowling all rounders . last match matthews came with a half century . today johnson came up with a quick fire 50.. but where are indian all rounders. this is my take on this.. in india selectors are obsessed with batting and bowling averages. so the expectation seems to be high. They are looking for a player in domestic circuit who scores a century and get a 5 wkt haul..tat is not gonna happen right?? so look out for average all rounders ..who knows with senior guidance in team .. he may turn out to be good in long run..

I agree that Irfan is the best fast bowling all rounder in India at least within the last decade but maybe there might be others like Nayar etc. soon

my question to dhoni and the selectors is why they picked mishra when they knew they were never going to play him?.without a medium pacer all-rounder it is very tough for us to pick 2 frontline spinners.irfan should have been in the squad.

Sir aggy was our best bet, I bet he could still bowl faster than RP.

Only real good all rounders these days are Morkel & Flintoff.
