As expected cheeka once again proved that he will try his best to push players from TamilNadu. At least now Badrinath should not let srikkanth down, I am sure he will not find a place in the playing XI but for some one ruled out of injury in the last movement. Rohit Sharma and Virath Kohli must be feeling bad for not being part of the team even after performing well against the Aussies. I feel badri is still in the team just b'cas srikkanth beleives that he is good and will come good but i am not sure how long he can take his case in the selection meetings.
Good that Yuvi is getting a change yet again the Indian Team and most likely to play in Ganguly place in the playing XI. Even an ordinary cricket fan knows that Yuvi is a confidence player and if he his given a long run and selectors convey that he is the player for the future. He might not be technically equipped to play good fast bowling in bouncy tracks but if he is confident he can come over that prove successful.
I have a feeling that the series if happens, will be of academic interest alone and nothing more than that. Given the back drop of the Mumbai terror attack, this series will be played under threat and the element of fear in the back of the minds will not let the players to give their best. I also feel that Team India might play soft to thank the ECB for coming to the country to play this series.
As so many observers all over the world have pointed out that we should not given in for terror and cancel sport but as Boycott has mentioned its true that we should not given in for terror but in reality who is going to come for rescue if the stadium is attacked or the English players taken as hostage.
Its tough times for the biggest democracy of the world, I wish and pray that there is no more terror attacks and the country is peaceful.
India: Mahendra Singh Dhoni (capt/wk), Virender Sehwag, Gautam Gambhir, Rahul Dravid, Sachin Tendulkar, VVS Laxman, S Badrinath, Harbhajan Singh, Amit Mishra, Zaheer Khan, Ishant Sharma, Munaf Patel, M Vijay, Yuvraj Singh, Pragyan Ojha

I don't think either Badri or M. Vijay will get a chance to play in the elevens. Unless any one sits out with an injury.
In my opinion Rohit Sharma must be grooved right from now for the future. He is one player who has proved that he can get runs abroad in his very short career. He must be ready enough to step into Sachin's shoes when the little master retires. He has the potential in him and he must put it to the forefront.
Yes Ajay. Rohit should be groomed right from this time.. he should be told that he will not be dropped, if he doesnt perform for a couple of series. This will take the pressure off him and let him to settle and play his natural game. With Sachin, Dravid all reaching a time where they can retire anytime, Rohit, Badri should be used in tandem to play with those greats and also get to know a piece of their mind. Its crucial time for Indian test team. Hope the transition phase is smooth
