But my argument is – Tier A player means a player who has won matches for India. I do not see Yuvraj like that.

I sincerely hope players like Suresh Raina, Venugopal Rao, … soon replace some of the players in this team.

Sanjay Manjrekar makes a very good point – In India selection in “one-day” and “Test match” is confused.

Kaif has been moderately successful in Tests and not so in one-day matches. But he is dropped from both versions of the game.

Yuvraj has been a good finisher in one-days, but not in test matches.

Offensive, no.

Your highly conjectures on Yuvraj are purely hypothetical. If he is given an extended run, we can see what he is capable of. In-one-match-out-the-next is not a stable position from which anyone can prove their credentials. Yuvraj can show what he is capable of once Laxman makes way… :-)

I know we are the offensive against Laxman. What has Yuvraj done to deserve a Grade A player ?

Has he ever played the 281 type of innings ever in his life ?

Yuvraj is clueless when playing spin bowling. For a middle order batsman, playing spin is vital for a middle order player.

I am sure he would have the same view re living in Inida–except for the pay, Kalyani beer and beef vindalooooooooo!

My answer is no.

All of them should have the decency to resign and leave the administration with someone else.

It makes one yearn for Jagmohan Dalmia.

Atleast we never faced international derison during his administration.

I am getting worried for your health–it is only a game, Yaar!

Why not make Dravid, the playing Coach and Captain—at most levels of club cricket in Australia, that is what happens, when they can’t afford a non-playing coach as well. And if Dravid succeeds, then other countries will follow Indian way of doing things.

There is always a fall back system in place–Dravid can ring a call center in Bangalore or Chennai and get the correct advice to beat the Poms!!!!–after they help me when I lose Internet connection or an ATM refuses to cough up money in Southland shopping centre!!

Look at what’s happening to VVS Laxman! Only in India :-)
