By straight point
yes this is true...
while o'bcci is looking to appoint paid selectors, we cant let you miss the opportunity here...
before new selectors of money minded, pathetic, unprofessional, bully (add more adjectives of your choice based on which place you are coming from) o'bcci take regime, we at fully transparent...as good as you, BCCI offer you the chance to pick indian test team for coming oz series...
you not only have to select team but provide vision and reason(s) for selecting the player(s) in your team as we said transparency is going to be the prime motto of this BCCI...
We will select the best selectors and publish their team and vision for all to see...
so guys what are you waiting for...now you have the chance to don the selectors cap and do what you couldn't with o'bcci...
have a go...
*thumb rule: avoid being politically correct*
sp - gng by o' bcci timing, they should have announced the test team today, after an odi win. Just like after Perthday.
ReplyDeletehold on...they will time it with our sl odi series win...after seeing 'perth' of some players...
ReplyDeletewhen is the new selection suicide squad being selected.
ReplyDeleteif india takes the odi series, there's bound to be a rub off - reckon msd will speak up, in a not very courteous way.
ReplyDeleteWhat if India go on to lose the ODI series? Whom will the selectors choose?
ReplyDeleteThis is going to develop into something...I'd like to see the teams and reasons. Heck, I'll have to reveal now I want as many Delhi bellies in the team as I can! How's that for a typical selectorial start....the belly first and team later?
ReplyDeletebelly first is interesting concept SB...
ReplyDeletelets have fellow bloggers belly too... :)

Raina
i would add
ReplyDeletea 'fit' sachin tendulkar...
my only difference will be gg opening with sehwag and raina in place of ganguly while badri being the 12th man...
Play Chopra for 4 reasons: tighter defence (than GG), greater levels of concentartion, less flam to balance Sehwag, ace close in catcher for spinners.
ReplyDeleteWould prefer GG to dominate the older ball/spinners. Gng by his form/and the middle order's lack, and the many failures in Lanka after an early wicket, like GG to be the test player that Ganguly could have been - + a middle order bully that gels with MSD.
