Is Jaffer not good enough? I guess it looks like he isn't. TBH I don't see much point in taking Virender Sehwag and not playing him. I know he hasn't scored any runs in yonks, but your taking a punt in picking him, but then I don't see the logic in not using that punt.
He certainly doesn't look good enough against this attack. Probably one of the issues in scoring a mountain of runs on featherbeds against an average attack.

I don't think they should play Sehwag but then I don't think they should have even picked Sehwag. He's clearly not there to gain experience of provide cover though so he's really a wasted touring spot, IMO.

Yuvraj wont last 2 overs at this pace and swing. HUGE mistake NOT including Sehwag :@ He would have givenJaffer some confidence as well.

Well he did just say that Ricky Ponting is a better captain than Michael Vaughan, that's pretty offensive. Not to mention untrue.

I think it was something about Dravid playing the ball like someone with Alzeimers because he looks so jittery at the crease.

Well, yes, but Chappell said something about Dravid jumping around the crease 'like someone with Alzeimers' so I tried to paraphrase...

well chappel is right .why that is offensive:unsure: More like having Amnesia .he forgot that he was a batsman once upon a time.

Cuz that's like saying JustTool is a tool, even though he is, I'd most likely get warned for saying something like this because it is offensive.
