first thing now is

should dravid be in the team ...does he need some time off

should shewag come in place of karthick.... in ODI team

 

[Turbinator]

I don't know why people are even thinking of giving Dravid some time off. The only way he'll overcome this loss of form, is by being out there in the middle and scoring some runs. And it's utter madness to leave Dravid out of the team just because he hasn't scored run in the past few matches. Remember the 90 something off 70 balls he played in England a few matches ago?

And yes I think Sehwag needs to be back in place of Karthik, especially since we all know how much Sehwag loves to play against Pakistan .

HOPE u r talking about ODIs. Otherwise, leaving DK out of the test side would make as much sense as leaving Yuvraj out of ODIs.

Let me get this straight... Aseem thinks Sehwag should take Karthik's Test place?

BTW - how long before we see Murali Kartik back in the Test side? I give it 2 games.

why 2 games !!!!

in all probability he and kumble might play the first game..with few left handers in pak line up these days

 

[R_D]

oh wow... first match is in Delhi... I'll probably be in Delhi around that time..... might head down for a day or 2.


Karthick is doing quite well as an opner and i don't think there's any need to drop him yet. He played really well on tough tour in England so i don't see how Sehwag deserves to come back anway.. not like he's been making bucket loads if run in domestic. Although Sehwag does have a Bradmanisqe average against Pakistan

Dravid to be MOS.
Sachin getting a 100 at eden garden and Pakistan getting smashed will top this trip for me. SOmthing i can talk about for rest of my life.

I should be there for days 1 and 2.

There should be No Question about Dravid's selection. He should be in the team. And No Sehwag should not be in the ODI, please bring in Rohit Sharma and Badrinath.

 

[nightprowler10]

Can't wait for this, though I get the feeling we'll get beat with the form we're in.

Yeah not too confident about the result (from Pakistan's perspective). My prediction:

Test: India 2-1
ODI's: Pakistan 3-2

No no no no no! I meant Sehwag should replace Karthik in ODIs, not Tests of course.

My dream come true for this series would be Sreesanth and Sachin (two most regularly bashed Indian players on PakPassion) destroying Pakistan .

My prediction:

ODIs: 3-2 India
Tests: 1-0 India

 

[haroon510]

they should have added one 20/20 game also..

i want pakistan to win....

in times like this i would say maybe the best team win..

And exactly what has changed since last time India-Pak met, well apart from Ms. Bhutto returning to Pakistan ?

I personally feel Dravid should be in the Indian side. He should be given some more chances to play in this Pakistan series. Unlike Ganguly and Tendulkar, Dravid was given far less chances before he was left out of the side because of his downslide form.

Dravid can soon be back to scoring runs. He has got a good technique which allows him to score runs even on a hard wicket to bat on. I feel he should be asked to bat at his usual #3 slot. I feel he is as good as Ponting for australia at #3.
