Mr Dhoni, what happened to the long rope you keep talking about? Only applies to your favorites??

Uthappa?

Long rope leads to Dhoni's bedroom and only a select special few have access to the boudoir.

What happened to the long rope Mr Dhoni? Rahane dropped after one match!!! That too when he got a pathetic decision!! Why don't you just come out and say that the long rope is only reserved for your friends like Yuvraj, Raina, etc. *&%$@#!~

Rahane was not dropped, but was just replaced by fit-again Yuvraj. Yuvraj was not dropped but was unfit in last game so Rahane played. Yuvraj only got his place back as he got fit, but I would like Yuvraj to be dropped for bad form and replaced by Rahane or Pujara at 4.

No one asking the Q why Rahane played ahead of Rayudu who has been a bench warmer for 3 consecutive series now! Rahane got added to the ODI squad only for this tour

Sadly this was the last match of yuvraj singh. Got a find new gutsy middleorder batters soon.

So much love for rahane suddenly..:haha: Let me tell you something people, he isn't good enough for Odis or limited overs cricket. His strike rate is pretty poor even for his Ipl team RR. If dhoni backs yuvi, so be it. Hopefully yuvi will come good next time.

Zanjeer why dont you put up a list of young guys who you think are 'good enough' for ODIs/ Tests respectively. WOuld make for an interesting reading.

[Zanjeer]

Odis- Mandeep Singh, unmukt chand, zol, Manoj tiwary and Sanju Samson. bowlers - Varun Aaron, shami, Rahul shukla, umesh and dhawal kulkarni. Test matches - Rahane, Zol and Sanju Samson bowlers- shami, umesh, varun. All of them pretty new and inexperienced. These guys should be used regularly if someone fails in our team.

Uthappa still has 7-8 years cricket left:-)he is best option for odi if properly handled.

Manoj tiwary was GOOD but i am not sure now.. Sanju Samson is Special Talent. Mandeep and unmukt r good but sanju is Special. Varun, shammi and Rahul are Special , i dont think DHawal will be international class. Back these guys Varun/shammi/Umesh and Rahul shukla.......
