India's tour of Pakistan, 2008-09, 3 Tests and 5 ODIs

He (Kumar) had the ability to move the ball off the seam and in the air, He was in top notch during the CB series, Then he just dissapeared until that Asia Cup I think.
 
Shukla batting at five?

I'd play Saha as a pure bat and get Goswami in as the keeper. Or play Saurabh Tiwary.

Manoj is terribly out of form...

Shukla's a quality all rounder, I like him, I also liked the look of him as a batsman. Manoj is still quality, I'm still waiting for his form to return, and he will be tonking centuries everywhere like that season.
 
There we go, Praveen Kumar.

Knew he had a name that sounded like a girl's :p

Was mostly a line-length bowler though, didn't have that much pace. A good one day bowler though, should have played against England..
Dunno what happened to Praveen Kumar, actually. Looks like he was one of the casualties when the new selectors took over.
 
I reckon he would have slaughtered on Indian pitches anyway, Would have been useful for the New Zealand Tour though...
 
How would he have been slaughtered when he has such an amazing record in the domestic scene? Praveen is amazing.
 
I have to ask - will any of our Indian friends be making the trip across the border (or several borders if living somewhere else) for this series?

I may be attending all the games, starting with the 3 day warm up in Hyderabad, and ending with the 5th ODI (I definitely will not be attending the twenty20 due to personal reasons)
 
The truth is that Cricketman is not really a man :eek:

Back on topic- I hope you get to see Sachin on fire every single time :D. It will be interesting to see if Dravid is still playing at the time as he might choose to retire in this test series vs England because he started his test career playing against them. However, he might also choose to end his career against arch rivals Pakistan. This is of course assuming that he isn't dropped. I sincerely hope he isn't dropped to end his international career as I would be very disappointed if that were to happen.

If my company sacks me I will be coming. Lets meet at Wagah border then. :p
