West Indies in India Nov 2011/12

I can't believe we didn't select another keeper. I really want to try and use Robin Uthappa as our backup lad in the shorter forms of the game. Parthiv just hasn't done enough.

I have a feeling Robin Uthappa has done something wrong outside off the field that he is being ignored continuously for the national side. Hope I am wrong!

r u joking..

india is not so desperate that they need to turn batsman into keeper. he doesn't keep for his domestic side also. yes in t20 you might have him if dhoni not playing, but in ODI no chance.

Karthik should be given a chance or Saha.

 

[aayush93]

Forgot WK, when Rahul Sharma is going to get chance. Let the guy play ranji trophy if he is not going to get pick.

I am the biggest Dinesh Karthik fan out there, but I think he has just lost flavor with the selectors now. He was given an extended run pre World Cup, didn't capitalize

Return of Irfan Pathan in the blue jersey

Irfan Pathan was picked in the squad for the last 2 ODIs against the West Indies after some brilliant performances in the 2011-12 Ranji Trophy where he was the leading wicket-taker before selection in the national team.He doesn't have that pace of 140 kph anymore as he had in 2003-04 when he made his debut for India but he sure looks to have turned over a leaf this time around.

Well, Pathan isnt playing

But then, Rahul sharma finally debuts and 2 spinners in the side and he has been in team for a long time so a good decision

 

[Gaurav_7]

3 spinners in fact. Jadeja as well. Why the heck is Irfan Pathan not playing? I would have had Aaron and Pathan as our new ball bowlers for today's game. Vinay Kumar, you lucky son of a gun!

 

[Paki007]

ah they selected vinay over pathan that's rubbish.Want to see him back in action i hope he'll do well

ATM i think Sehwag will tear WI apart today as he has started

WI have to blame themself. they beaten india in last game and got sehwag out on golden Duck.

He is hitting six today of first ball in over.

SRT's 200* record is in danger considering the know how of the turf.

 

[Rohit Doshi]

^^ Cant agree more Sehwag's on 90 already

----------

He is on 97, hope he gets 200, and we can say how much is he overrated

----------

100 for Virender Sehwag! Terrific knock just what we needed before the OZ series

 

[Gaurav_7]

That's what happens when you keep opening with so many combinations. I'd least expect these both to make blunders while running. But, that's how it is...

 

[Sedition]

FFFFUUU Sehwag, running out my captain when he finally performs

 

[Addy]

and we can say how much is he overrated

There aint any doubt that he's overrated. He got the flattest track of the series and he's performing.
