A Retrograde Step

If a team requires a veteran who has not played ODI cricket for two years, to play short pitch bowling of Dale Steyn/ Fidel Edwards at Champions trophy in South Africa, the team stands no chance of winning.

Reinstating Rahul Dravid in ODI team is a very short sighted retrograde step. A very disappointing move by Kris Srikanth & Co. If Dravid is in India ODI team, Ramprakash is a shoo into English team for 5th Ashes test. And where is Pragyan Ohja ? Amit Mishra is a good bowler no doubt but what mistake has Pragyan Ohja done?


I agree Rohit Sharma deserves to be sacked. They should have instead gone for either Badrinath or Cheteshwar Pujara.

In conclusion, Srikanth would be well recommended to read Edward de Bono.

Just as I finish the blog, cricinfo informs that Jonathan Trott has replaced Ravi Bopara -- so no Rampakash. Well done to Geoff Miller & co.
