Also, I think Y. Sigh is India’s weakest link these days. Let’s give him a break and bring in someone else, at least for a while.

I think it was 7th over. Mahela came into bat struggling for form and Dilshan was not yet striking the ball well, Ideally i would have thought that any other captain would brought in their strike bowler to attack and take more wickets. Surprise move.. your thoughts?

Yuvraj is not the same player (who hit 6 – 6s in an over) and his fielding is also slow. Perhaps, he is nursing an injury.

SreeSanth is a strike bowler. He can take wickets, but he can be expensive. Without Zaheer and RP, there are not that many options.

Why not try Suresh Raina or some other players.

But don’t we have too many players in our team who are not performing at their very best?

1. Sehwag – I agree he scored an enterprising 150 in the last test, but he is no where near his best — ( Multan or MCG 2003 days) . He misses more often than he connects.

2. Dhoni – he is hanging in there with some valuble runs and grit. But no where near his dominating best. His weakness against quality bowling is being exposed well in Australia

3. Irfan Pathan – He has returned to cricket as a decent all rounder. But he is no longer the same Old lethal strike bowler for India .

4. Yuvraj – No Comments. Even his fielding doesn’t seem to at its best.

5. Harbhajan is again inconsistent.

6. Sreesanth again is very inconsistent.

7. R. Uthappa – No where close to the promise he showed in the T20′s. Its a little too early to suggest though given that he didn’t get enough opportunities.

So are they all lacking motivation ?

Having said all this. Gambhir seems to be at his best and so are the two young Sharmas .

Some show promise but time and again falter. Irfan showed promise but he has not been consistent.
