Checked cricinfo. Apparently Saha averages in the lower 40's which ain't terrible, I guess? I saw Saha's keeping, he was pretty good behind the stumps. DK is talented but inconsistent imho.
I feel Dinesh Karthik is more suited to ODI's than Saha is. The latter might be a negligbly better wicket-keeper (I am not too sure if that is true, to be honest), but the former is a better, more versatile batsman.

Karthik has my vote as Dhoni's back up as well.

We've been put into bat and Baz is fit enough to keep! Which is good news besides the disappoinment of not winning that Hopkins under 28 bet. Williamson dropped for How.
Gah, didn't realise I'd lose if Hopkins wasn't selected. Grump.

Go Macca.

"KM in with more interesting stuff. Going back to McCullum's 150-plus in the first IPL match, in Bangalore, KM reminds me it came against the same bowlers, Zaheer and Praveen, who were representing the hosts, Royal Challengers Bangalore then."- cricinfo

How could you know who's a better bat? I haven't seen him bat, but his List A record is better than DK which says he's a decent bat innit?

Fair play to NZ so far, 3-0 down, they always needed to come out extra positive today & hope for an ounce of luck & it's worked so far.

From the little I have seen of Saha which, admittedly, is not much, I get the feeling that he is crap. I might be wrong, though.
