Re: 5th ODI: India v Pakistan at Jaipur - Nov 18, 2007
How come I don't see any columns anywhere in the media criticizing Ganguly's poor performance in this series. I guess as long as India is winning, nobody cares.
The guy has been easy meat for the Pakistan bowlers...he has only made some decent runs when given a few chances (like the 1st ball dropped catch- courtesy Akmal). It is sad that a batsman like Yuvraj may have to sit out in the Test Matches so Gangu can play, just to pacify the Bong fans. And of course Gangu's fielding - is super as we all know - esp compared to Yuvraj's ;)
Anyways if it was upto me , I would play the following team for the dead rubber at Jaipur :
Gangu OUT Rohit Sharma IN (Sehwag and Tendu can open - Sehwag cannot do any worse than Gangu)
Zaheer Khan OUT Praveen Kumar IN (Praveen Kumar should be given a look in considering this match is a dead rubber. Zaheer has redeemed himself nicely, btw)
