    Build-up to Indian Domestic Season 2008-09

    Ajinkya Rahane : Time for him to step up and claim the big prize?

    Rahane is certainly behind Badrinath and possibly Pujara for a middle-order spot (neither Raina nor Sharma are competing with him for the #3 spot in the test side). However, Rahane has an outside shot at touring New Zealand as the reserve opener. Vijay just returned from injury and if he...

    Yusuf gone too. Did I jinx them? :-O

    Seriously, what the **** are Dhoni and Kirsten thinking? First, you leave out Balaji and Jadeja with a perfect opportunity to test bench strength. Next, Dhoni comes at one-down and as if that wasn't enough, Yuvraj comes next. Honestly, what's the point of playing Raina and Sharma if you're...

    ***Official*** India in Sri Lanka

    By playing Praveen, Irfan and Balaji, three of the leading candidates for the reserve spot in the test squad, the management gets an opportunity to assess who's in form and who's likely to threaten international opposition in NZ. Given that not all of Yusuf, Jadeja and Ojha will make the...

    Give him a chance to prove it then. Besides, we make up for the potential fragility at 6 by having a genuine all-rounder in Irfan Pathan at 8 ... or are you telling me that an attack of Pathan-Balaji-Praveen-Ojha-Jadeja-Yusuf isn't sufficient? Besides, Yuvraj playing again wouldn't do much to...

    Jadeja can't be labeled a bits-and-pieces cricketer just yet as he's been called up on the basis of a domestic season in which he was 6th in the run charts and 2nd in the wickets column. Domestic success doesn't always translate but Jadeja's put up numbers that Yusuf never came close to; based...

    Ojha finally delivers a strong performance but this presents a selection dilemma for the remaining matches. Jadeja, Irfan and Balaji should definitely play, as should Raina and Sharma. Sehwag and/or Yuvraj should be rested for the next match and Praveen Kumar should probably get a go...

    You've got to be kidding me. 3 bad decisions in a row?

    What does Yuvrj have that Yuvraj doesn't? :huh:

    How is that relevant to my post?

    ***Official*** India in Sri Lanka

    Not exactly. First of all, Praveen Kumar just had a great match and he's probably ahead of Balaji. Pathan's still in the squad and Sreesanth may get back in the mix if he returns with a bang in the Duleep Trophy final. Balaji would've been better served getting a very meaningful FC match...

    Dhoni, what were you thinking? Let the umpire give you not out incorrectly if he's going to give your teammates out incorrectly. He'll get praise in some quarters for walking at this stage, that's for sure.

    Haha, that was the semi they just won, the final's up next. Bhupathi's in the men's doubles final as well, with Knowles from Bahrain. As if things weren't promising enough from an Indian perspective, top-seeded phenom Yuki Bhambri has a chance to take the junior men's singles title.

    He's in the squad.

    Ojha has been disappointing for a strike spinner; Jadeja's probably a better option with bat, ball and in the field so I'd just go with him. India also needs to find a way to get Praveen Kumar and even Irfan Pathan some action - be it through rotation, another poor showing from Munaf (big...

    Roger looking extremely dangerous at the moment. Roddick needs to mix it up and attack to have any shot.

    On another note, Murali Vijay almost certainly has to be injured - there's no way Bandekar would make the XI ahead of him otherwise. Opening for Pujara?
