Probable Indian squad for OZ tour (blood pressure warning: Agarkar a possible inclusion)

[bharat297]

WtH has that yuseless actor done to deserve a place... We might as well stop the domestic matches if they don't count.

Anyone who hits 6 sixes in an over is an automatic test player :haha:

[guju24]

Yuvraj Singh will NOT play in the 11 anyway - might as well take ONE extra opener as backup - Akash Chopra instead of YS?

thats a good idea plus..wht is agarkar doing there...does he wants to repeat his 5 ducks in a row again...

[Dravid]

atleast aggy did something to get the comeback :D, unlike a certain useless opener... :P

Guys,remember Adelaide Oval 2003-4. If can concentrate a bit more on line&length he will be the most succesful bowler there.He can seam the ball and any way with cookumbara that they use in Aus he can have a good time. I have no problems with him being in the team...

Gambhir, Agarkar likely for Aus Tour Rediff: http://www.rediff.com/cricket/2007/dec/05select.htm

Breaking News.... Selection for Australia likely to be delayed. Injury to players the likely reason..... Selection likely after 3rd test.

[Dirty_South]

Oh no ! Not again ! :afraid:

[SachDan]

Thats how it should be done. Lets wait for this test to end

[Mr. Wicket]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. Good Lord. NO. PLEASE. NO.

:whatchutalkingabout Issse kab peecha choote ga?

Even though I would go with Chopra ... Gambhir has earnt a spot. Agarkar ... hmm. Well I guess if Munaf is bowling like he is, and Sreesanth is not fit, then we have Zaheer and RP. Pathan will be selected I am expecting ... so if not Agarkar, who should be the 4th pacemen (its sad but its a reality)

This is good news (delayed selection). Let us first finish the Test-3 and then decide things. I have a feeling Kumble wanted it after the Test-3, and BCCI has accepted and given the "injury to players" reason. In anycase, it is a good move, and if Kumble has a hand in it, hats off to him.

[SachDan]

Fineleg, nothing assuch sort in any ANGREZI news channels.. so I think they r selecting today itself.

[Chandan]

It has to be 5 pacers and Munaf is sure to be selected. Openers: three MO :Five WK: Two Spinners:Two Pacers:Five Since one of the keeper and opener is common, it'll be a squad of 16 players.

[SachDan]

Chandan, exactly it should be that way.

[fineleg]

Fineleg' date=' nothing assuch sort in any ANGREZI news channels.. so I think they r selecting today itself.[/quote'] I guess we will know in some hours. I hope they dont announce Aus squad. That can wait.

[SachDan]

its slated for 3 PM IST. already started i think.

i like to see Ganguly opening with Jaffer so UV get into 11 should be good remember last tour of Aus, UV & Laxman killed Aussie

Are u talking Tests or ODIs? For ODIs - YS surely will be there. He is among the best we have for ODIs. Test match cricket and YS different story altogether! :giggle:

I was going on the assumption that it will be a squad of 15, so yea if it is 16 then 5 pacemen is not a bad idea. Although 4 openers is also not a bad idea either.
