cybervickey Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 Apni umra bhi bata dijiye Satya Shri Saai Baba (all relevant words in capital so I don't offend "sentiments") ? Nahin, I'll tell you this: I've been playing and following cricket for more than 2 decades. Do you agree with dropping sehwag and dhoni from our test team ?

[b']Do you agree with dropping sehwag and dhoni from our test team ? Please tell me from your memory.....in the last 10 Test matches overall...which Sehwag or Dhoni contribution to the team you remember. Also from the 8 defeats...do you recall something. All I see is both these guys keep getting out in similar fashion....& not willing to learn or apply themself....doesnt matter if the wicket is helping batsman or not...they keep getting out cheaply & mostly in similar fashion For Sehwag I remember this though that he continued playing in the IPL with injury...forcing him to miss WI tour completly...& then showed up unfit & unrecored with good belly in Eng. Dhoni.....looks bored in Test....Heck even Saha showed some fight with the bat. So if we dont follow past reputation...& have to select a team on merit...both these guys dont qualify to be even in the squad...forget about the playing XI

The point is not that how many play this game...the point is that these players have been badly under performing in Test cricket for India for sometime now. Continuing to include them in the team just because of those past performances that you want me to write is not the way to go forward.....plus tough decisions now when our Test team needs to be rebuilt will send out strong message accross the board...rather then saab chaalta hai attitude
Ultimate_Game Posted January 27, 2012 Posted January 27, 2012 Look at the knee jerk reaction with out Sachin our team will suffer. You call asking for changes after being blanked 8-0 by Eng & Aus a knee jerk reaction:omg: Maybe you can also elaborate how exactly the team will "suffer without Sachin". Will it be worse than 8-0 and a batsman in good touch averaging 30?

I said that sarcastically.... Coz Sachin was making him look like a LION and was giving him so much respect. Got it :idea:
achilles Posted January 27, 2012 Posted January 27, 2012 No one except the attention seeking media Yep. But you watching the news these days? They're onto Sachin and Dhoni for their "constant failures" et al. India TV asked Sachin and DHoni to learn how to play cricket from Pakistan :hehe:
