Is there any chance of seeing a more detailed breakdown of who voted for what - ie minutes of the selection committee?
No doubt I expect there's as much chance as there is of you playing the 1st Test match.

As there is clearly suspicion of favouritism with the selection of Camps ahead of Robbins, I'd like to state that I wasn't even keen on his selection to the Test touring party in the first place. However, in the defence of the selection, Camps had both a better FC season and is a more established allrounder.

I must say, considering I've been running the Dev League for 8 seasons as well as 75% of the tours, this suggestion is very disappointing...

When we have a Test record as we do the gun should be permanently at their heads.
You don't think we're putting the best XI on the field everytime? I do look forward to hearing what changes you'd have made.

when you have bowled at indian sides 3 times and had 3 declarations against you the bowling power as strong as possible.

I imagine the problem is the bowling success of ones who've been dropped in the previous series - not often a player can take wickets at about 20 and then be dropped.

1st Test

CWXI vs India..

Match Summary without givin much away: The first test was a high flyer , CWXI won a good toss to win and chose to bat first.. the wise decision on a battin track.. and we put up a good show indeed after a disappointing start to the tour.. Hats off to Pete ...

Damn Sehwag took to our guys with the long handle 226 off just 250!

Guess we were a bit lucky that Ganguly and Laxman got run out before they got going as well...

Heads up guys...two more tests to go...

Congrats on the solid debut Dave. a very handy 25* down the order and tight (compared to others) figures. Well done, unfortuently the team got batted out of the game, buttheres a few positives to come out of it. After all, a draw is better than a loss.
