Nice to see Subramaniam Badrinath get his long overdue Test debut. Hope he makes a ton on debut. Just a question, is Subra his shortened name?

He was a token backup for Dhoni, probably to satisfy the East zone since he's the first player from Kolkata since Ganguly. Did not expect to play - the normal backup, Karthik, is busy scoring centuries in the domestic circuit.....

Total pie in the face situation for the selectors. A guy averaging 35 in FC cricket is playing as a pure batsman just because we ran out of people in the squad.

Shouldn't be a problem if the Indian selectors wanted to call him up even if he is involved in a match right now. A 180 and 150 in a match must prove that he is in some sort of form.
