Should Bhaji be guaranteed a spot?

[Sachinism]

For a bowler guaranteed a spot in the final XI, I don't think he's doing enough with the ball as the leading spinner. Maybe him keeping the runs down allows others to get wickets at times, but that isn't always the case. He used to be the bowler we could turn to for wickets, but that doesn't happen anymore and even if we do he doesn't get those wickets. On a pitch like todays against Ireland he had a good chance to get some wickets

Imo, no bowler except Zak should be guaranteed of a spot in the XI

[Sid]

No ,special dart classes were on display again today

[vvvslaxman]

Let me put this way. He should not be an automatic selection. Ojha is more potent than him. He is not even in the squad. So Ashwin must play. But for his batting performances he would not be playing.

[flamy]

well... he is glued to the team either ways, so no point discussing :/

[Lord]

hes not bad,got crucial wicket against England.but yeah should be told to go for wickets,even if he goes for 50-60 runs

[Shane]

Average display for a bowler of his experience, But is an automatic starter, esp after Chawla's performance. We should have a look at Ashwin for the next game.

[saneindian]

Of course yes, extends our batting to number 8 , has won key matches for us with the bat, so why not. Kept one end tight and the batsmen were looking to play him out. It would help if he takes wickets some more wickets though.

Bhaji is just like Sehwag in Indian team. Both of them are moody players, they can be out of form for 1 year, and then perform really well and this cycle shall continue.

If India has atleast 3 wicket taking bowlers we wouldnt be having to make 340 every match. Keep in mind we are not always going to make that much score.

[Hell Raiser]

Seems like Bhajji is turning into batsman and part time bowler and Yuvi is turning into spinner who can bat a bit.:--D

No Matter how aggresive his body language might be his bowling is pretty Defensive.

[The Realist]

They guy is a fraud in all senses. Projects an image of being aggresive but in reality is a mouse as his performances over the past few years indicate. When the going gets tough, he hides. He is in the team apparently as a strike bowler, looks like he has had all of us fooled.

[zubinpepsi]

its helps to be a buisness partner of the captain and also one of the best friends of Sachin..

[vvvslaxman]

Benn, Afridi, Swann.. all the main spinners of the respective sides pick wickets.

[pakexpress]

Benn' date=' Afridi, Swann.. all the main spinners of the respective sides pick wickets.[/quote'] dont forget Tahir who has taken 11 in 4 matches now

Did i miss a Shane Warne waiting on the sidelines ? We're in the middle of the WC, no big changes coming up.
