team for 3rd test, hmmm, well retain the same

[King Tendulkar]

sree bowled ok. bowled witout luck

[ludhianvi]

I say get 9 specialist batsmen and draw the last match and win the series Jaffer karthik dravid tendulkar ganguly laxman yuvraj gambhir dhoni Zaheer RP Singh Make yuvi, gambhir and tendu bowl spin while zaks, rp singh and ganguly do the pace bowling. Thats a decent bowling attack for a draw, and an exceptional batting lineup I still cant believe that we went with 5 batsmen against England in the deciding test match in the series in India

[Cricketics]

I say get 11 specialist batsmen and draw the last match and win the series

rofl rofl rofl :hysterical::haha:

I changed it above to get some balance. But still If I was the captain/coach, I'd go with 9 specialist batsmen along with zaheer and rp singh. Now I am serious.:thumbs_up: Pace bowlers: zaheer, rp singh, and ganguly spin: yuvi, gambhir,and tendu lineup: ( someone relay this to dravid) Jaffer Karthik Dravid Tendulkar Ganguly Laxman Yuvraj Gambhir Dhoni Zaheer RP Singh

[King Tendulkar]

ludhianvi is on to something here, lets play 11 batters and seal the draw.

I would say lets get someone other than Sreesanth in ... but there is no one to go to!!! Sharma isnt close to being test ready and although Bose deserves a shot I dont think the Oval is the right place for him. How I wish we had Aag or even someone like Nehra in the squad.

[ludhianvi]

ludhianvi is on to something here' date=' lets play 11 batters and seal the draw.[/quote'] We dont have 11 pure batsmen on the tour, so lets opt for 9 batsmen including dhoni, and two pacers: Zaheer and Rp Singh, Gives us a good balanced team with the inclusion of yuvi and Gambhir to aid in the spin department along with Tendu.

[King Tendulkar]

Everyone stp bagging sree. He bowled great in SA. Bowled very well at Lords. And bowled ok here without any luck. Stop listening to those fools on sky etc. He is one of our main men and must PLAY. He rattles them, the bullies dont like being bullied

Call up 2 from the A tour. Then we can have 11 batters. They will never be able to bowl us out twice:D

Bunch of jokers you lot :hysterical:

[dial_100]

keep the same team...its going to be tough game ...the next one.. whats the weather like?

[ludhianvi]

Bunch of jokers you lot :hysterical:

I was joking with 11 specialist batsmen but not with 9 specialist batsmen. Really, are we desperate to win the last match or a draw is good enough. I go for the latter. For that reason, I'd go with the following team Jaffer karthik dravid tendulkar ganguly laxman yuvraj gambhir dhoni Zaheer RP Singh

[Gaurav]

Don't worry yaar :haha: We will win the next test anyway. British bulldog ki fat jayagi when it face our desi street walla kuta :hysterical:

[dial_100]

haha.. hey BTW... anyone for little gamble here... I mean just a thought. When are we going to prepare Yuvi for the test?? I mean realistically do we have any other person on bench who is worth anything? If Yuvi is our best bet, we should groom that guy. So if he is give a chance in place of SRT/VVS/Gangs/Kumble, then I wont mind. Even Dhoni for that matter. My point is when is this guy gonna be ready?? He needs more opportunities. Give him some... I will stop watching test cricket after out TOP 4 retire as we do not have enuff people to take their places. It will be same like we struggle with our openers for decades after SMG.
