Dravid named in 30 man probable squad but Irfan left out

[surendar]

If Rohit sharma is not going to get his confidence like IPL, I think Dinesh Karthik would be given the green signal in place of Rohit. It's going to be hard for Dravid to come straight away! And leaving Irfan out doesn't surprise me either. As if he is the fast bowler! : Hardly we have any fast bowlers in form.

1. Sachin
2. Viru
3. Gambhir
4. Karthik/Raina/Sharma
5. Yuvi
6. Dhoni
7. Yusuf
8. Harbhajan
9. Praveen
10. Ishant
11. Zaheer


That would be my lineup I think Karthik would get the green signal because of his good form lately while other two struggled terribly against the short pitched deliveries.

Dinesh Karthik
Gautam Gambhir
S Badrinath
Yuvraj Singh
Rahul Dravid
MS Dhoni+
Yusuf Pathan
Harbhajan Singh
Zaheer Khan
RP Singh
Ishant

One can dream.

Where is Sachin? You know that he would be coming back, right?

He didn't want a choker in his team

Anyway, Sachin for Karthik. Easily done.

One thing, why haven't you picked Pravin Kumar? Him over Ishant/RP anyday. Don't know why this lad gets dropped everytime. He's far more reliable than Ishant or RP Singh, and a better bowler in the ODIs.

 

[Howsie]

India really need a quality fast bowler in One Day cricket. Sharma really hasn't kicked on.

 

[Leggie]

Ishant looked pretty good in the last game where he actually, for once, pitched the ball up and therefore got Gayle out.

 

[SciD]

Irfan 10000 times better than that ugly long haired skinny pole.

Anyway, Sachin for Karthik. Easily done.

You lost that right to say it after Sachin won us the CB series finals.

Sorry, the choker minus the CB finals.

 

[SaiSrini]

Sorry, the choker minus the CB finals.

Yeah, a choker who is arguably the world's best ever batsman of the current generation.

It seems Dravid is going to play in Chennai's local league,for India cements (which includes notable cricketers Badrinath,Balaji,etc) to gain match practice.

In ODI cricket.

Just thought I'd finish the statement.

 

[Amiya]

The choker is probably better than your national team.

 

[Insomniac]

The choker is probably better than your national team.

He's not as almighty as you think he is. Stop treating him like a "God" when he isn't one.

 

[Leggie]

Put it this way. I'd take Sachin over any of the Pakistani batsmen whatever form either of them may be in.
