Brainfade Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 ... is to drop KKDK, persuade RSD to open, move VVSL to #3, and get Yuvraj in at #6. I could live with that. RSD is vritually opening, anyway. And he has done it before. Link to comment
beetle Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 Has he done enough to be worth all this trouble.....? Link to comment
bharat297 Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 If we are dropping KKD then we should replace him with an opener ... I would be happy with either Chopra or Sehwag (and yes I know he has done nothing in domestic cricket to deserve it) because despite some good domestic form I am still not convinced about Gambhir. Sehwag should be given at least 1 more chance in Tests before the Aussie series because even if there is the most minute chance that he does run into some form ... wouldnt we want to take that into Australia? Remember batsman are usually 1 good innings away from turning around their form. Link to comment
Rohip Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 Sehwag will destroy this pakistani attack, he made his 300 against a fit Sami and Akhtar. imagine what he will do to an ill sami and akhtar Link to comment
Yuvraj4Captaincy Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 Has he done enough to be worth all this trouble.....? probably not:haha: Link to comment
bharat297 Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 Well as critical as I have been of Yuvraj, I must give credit where credit is due and he is certainly making the most of his opportunity here ... well done Yuvraj Link to comment
DesiChap Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 Dravid has to open Yuvraj Singh has to play. There is no way we keep him out Link to comment
Sachinism Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 i guess he should, he's already having to come in early due to india always losing a wicket early Link to comment
Chaos Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 hell no, only way for uv is to open Link to comment
Yuvraj4Captaincy Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 hell no' date=' only way for uv is to open[/quote'] hell no...yuvi should play in middle order...dravid with all his technique should open..when a wicket falls early...he is there anywayz Link to comment
Chaos Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 hell no...yuvi should play in middle order...dravid with all his technique should open..when a wicket falls early...he is there anywayz if dravid falls, so will chances of us winning. Only reason we did ok was rahul and laxman owned aussies. Link to comment
fineleg Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 YS played very well. Congrats. YS cannot open. New ball is different thing in Test cricket. Today also unfortunately YS got out to new ball. We should have a player who can play the new ball to open. Gambhir failed today, not sure what we are gonna do in Aus - Take Chopra and Jaffer and hope for it - If YS needs to be accomodated, then: 1. Dravid has to open or 2. Laxman has to be dropped Both problematic choices!!! We will have to take it Test by Test. Link to comment
Guest HariSampath Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 If I were made chief selector for 1 hour This will be my 16. 1. Jaffer 2. Sehwag 3. Dravid 4. Sachin 5. Ganguly 6. Laxman 7. Yuvraj 8. Dhoni 9. Kumble 10.Harbhajan 11. Murali Karthik 12. Zaheer 13. RP Singh 14. Agarkar 15.Dinesh Karthik 16. Pathan Link to comment
PaiN_KiLLeR Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 The only way is to make Dravid open with Jaffer and play Yuvi at number 6. Shouldn't be a problem for dravid since he mostly comes in to bat within the first 30 minutes anyway! Link to comment
jf1gp_1 Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 If everyone believes yuvraj is such an important player then why cant we drop one from middle order ? its not as if we cant win without the 4 in middle order. Link to comment
novpj Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 Drop VVS - he is old and doesnt seem fit to pla more than a year - why not use the spot for Yuvi? Link to comment
Guest HariSampath Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 It will have to be either Dravid or Laxman dropped or Dravid to open... Link to comment
Guest HariSampath Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 Drop VVS - he is old and doesnt seem fit to pla more than a year - why not use the spot for Yuvi? In fact Dravid and Laxman are both old, and Laxman has had a better record in recent tests than Dravid...probably Dravid will be dropped Link to comment
Guest HariSampath Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 Yuvraj was 1 short of his 1000th test run when dismissed :-( Link to comment
