Good performance by india.

I dont know why rohan gavaskar doesnt get selected in the indian team despite of being such a good batsman.......its just because he's the son of cricketer and the selectors dont want to take any chances taking him because people will think that he is jsut been selected because he is the son of a great cricketer and its a in justice for rohan gavaskar.

give gavaskar time, with more performances like this one in the second test, his indian side call up will happen. kaif has a case for the test side, with not bad performances in both tests so far. but i think yuvraj will get the call up before kaif just because yuvraj can bowl some too.
