So Saurav is back in the test squad for the South African Series.The entire episode which still continues is a big joke.The only thing it reaffirms there is hope for everybody and nobody should put away his kit bag in a hurry.I am sure (and i am prepared to put my neck on the line!) that Saurav will find it hard to score runs out in South Africa.The bouncy,hard pitches and the pace attack of South Africans will find holes in his technique sooner than later.This will also in a way seal his future in Indian Cricket.
So,VVS finds his back in the one day team after being called unfit by the chairman of selectors.And more importantly being named Vice captain for the Test series.So that puts Sehwag in a spot.I dont many players in the international cricket have been the long rope like the way the Indians have been given.Justin Langer with so much of experience is always on the line with Philip Jacques pushing him for a spot.Micheal clarke was dropped after being identified as a future great by many well known commentators.Brad Hodge who a year back made lots of runs is nowhere in the picture.Gillespe has been slowly and surely eased out of the team.Now compare it to the Indian team.Sehwag,Sachin,Raina,Kaif and others should not be finding a place in the team on the basis of current form.
Indian Cricket stutters along as the cash registers keep ringing in ,so who is bothered?
