Punjab defeats Delhi by 19 runs at Mohali. Inder and Sidhana both scored hundered for Punjab. Narwal scored some runs again. Highest scorer for Delhi with 62. Good victory for Punjab this.

Couldn't he get the attention of selectors prior to selection? This guy would have been a good addition when you consider the form of our middle order. What the eff is chawla doing there.

After 11-month layoff, Irfan suffers injury again Tushar Tere, TNN, Feb 11, 2011, VADODARA: Left-arm seamer Irfan Pathan's attempts at a comeback after a gap of 11 months suffered a huge setback when he suffered a hamstring injury playing for Baroda against Mumbai in the Vijay Hazare West Zone Trophy at Motibaug ground on Thursday. Irfan could bowl only 17 balls before he started facing pain in his left knee. The incident again raised doubts about Irfan's fitness. The player has been out of action since last year's IPL. He stopped midway through a delivery in his third over and returned back to his run-up mark, tried to bowl again but went down on the ground in pain as the team physio rushed to treat him. After a while, Irfan was seen limping out of the ground and did not play the rest of the match. "Irfan has pulled his hamstring. It is not clear yet how serious it is. It is bound to happen as he is playing after a long period," said a Baroda Cricket Association (BCA) official. Irfan had told TOI ahead of the IPL 4 auction in January that he had recovered from his back injury and would make a comeback in the Ranji one-dayers. The young team is heavily banking on the all-rounder. When Baroda were batting, he was bowled for a duck by Mumbai spinner Iqbal Abdullah off the second ball he faced.
All this clamor for Irfan Pathan across forums yet this guy has not found a way to get over the injury blues as bad as one may feel for him. Unfortunately staying injury free and being fit are a big part of the game and to that end looks like it is not totally unreasonable to ask the question will he ever be good enough to be threat as a fast bowling option at the FC level leave alone at the Test match level. As of now I say not.

Hmm..ok..Whatever the hell that means. I pretend to have not read that.

What about R.P Singh. Didn't check his stats' date=' [b']but regardless of how he would have bowled, I believe he is still one of the better bowlers in India. May be better than Nehra and Munaf too. Yes, surely he hasn't done anything perhaps to be selected anytime soon, but how is going these days?
So he could be dishing out crap but you would still consider him as one of the better bowlers in India. Nice.
