J P K Posted August 5, 2011 Posted August 5, 2011 Left-arm pacer Ashish Nehra has submitted his fitness certificate to the BCCI and has made himself available for selection for the upcoming one-off Twenty20 and five-match ODI series against England starting August 31. "Yes, I have submitted my fitness certificate for the upcoming T20 and ODI series in England," Nehra told PTI from Bangalore on Friday. Nehra who was in England a couple of weeks back is currently training at the National Cricket Academy in Bangalore. "I am 100 percent fit for the series and currently training in Bangalore," Nehra added. Nehra sustained a fracture during the World Cup semi-final at Mohali earlier this year and missed out on the entire Indian Premier League where he was scheduled to play for Sahara Pune Warriors. Although he had started bowling long back, he had indicated that he didn't want to rush his comeback until fully fit as he wasn't getting the required strength in his hand while batting.
deepak_sach Posted August 5, 2011 Posted August 5, 2011 We dont know if he is bowling fit I dont want to see him bowl again...
asehgal Posted August 5, 2011 Posted August 5, 2011 Thanks but no thanks. We already have a certain Khan who gets injured after playing a single match. Two of those will be just too much.
Number Posted August 5, 2011 Posted August 5, 2011 I feel they better invest in a young pacer , Nehra is a good ODI bowler when he is fit , but still his fitness is always worrisome and causes problems for captain.
Jayaram_IND Posted August 5, 2011 Posted August 5, 2011 Oldie -goldie- medium- pace- 120- Nehra... So you want younger unadkat?
deepak_sach Posted August 5, 2011 Posted August 5, 2011 So you want younger unadkat? Yes.And VA Raymond.
Jayaram_IND Posted August 5, 2011 Posted August 5, 2011 Hey deepak who is that fast bowler from Tamil nadu which Shiva talked about?
WC2011INDIA Posted August 5, 2011 Posted August 5, 2011 We are going to loose this series, so might as well let him play.
Septimius Severus Posted August 5, 2011 Posted August 5, 2011 Nehra please go. Hope Umadkat gets selected. He has the potential to be India's spearhead in the future.
NareshK Posted August 5, 2011 Posted August 5, 2011 Indian fans have such a short memory. He was devastating against Paks in the SF. Could have played the final too if it wasnt for the injury.
Cricketics Posted August 5, 2011 Posted August 5, 2011 Indian fans have such a short memory. He was devastating against Paks in the SF. Could have played the final too if it wasnt for the injury. Only post which deserves some attention in this thread. It's easy to say - Give chances to youngsters. But it hurts when you keep losing games after games. I would rather have Nehra play this series than any other player. We can rest guys like Sreesanth, who didn't do anything int he world cup.
Yoda-esque Posted August 5, 2011 Posted August 5, 2011 Nehra please go. Hope Umadkat gets selected. He has the potential to be India's spearhead in the future. WTH?!!!! Are you SERIOUS????
Cricket Tragic Posted August 5, 2011 Posted August 5, 2011 Nehra please go. Hope Umadkat gets selected. He has the potential to be India's spearhead in the future. :hysterical:
