Not really. Only people who have a case to be dropped are Dravid, Raina and Yusuf Pathan. Then Nehra, RP Singh... yeah, I actually agree with you.:p

Dravid is far over due to be retired in deed........

Mohammad Kaif wasn't all that bad, amazing fielder for sure.........don't know what happened to him.

not good enough to break in as a batsman and we cant select specialist fielders. :p


Sachin, WAG!!!

Probably can bat better then Raina, and Pathan on any day....lol

And why Nehra? What happened to Munaf....was able to swing both ways....a bit lazy in style but certainly gifted.

probably in tests. But for ODIs, as a batter, I feel he is like the late 90s Dravid. His best position would be at 3 but he doesn't really have the technique to hang around on a dificult wicket and on a good wicket, someone like RAina will score quicker than him..


EDIT: @ Pratters.

What you say regarding slowness is true. But I felt it was harsh never to recall him, especially when India were going through a torrid time in 2006, 2007. He had two good seasons followed by a bad one and surely deserved another chance. I hope he has learnt how to bat quicker now because I certainly back him to score runs at least.

But still, Sachin = ODI cricket God.
