One reason why SEHWAG should never be made CAPTAIN.

He hasn’t heard about the word - DIPLOMACY.

Says he (as quoted at Cricinfo) :
*
“At least we got seven wickets, they haven’t got even one.” *

and
*
Pakistan probably didn’t want to prepare seaming tracks," he said, "and thought that their bowlers will get us out on flat, hard wickets. But we fought back well and are ready to play on any sort of track. It’s not a good wicket for a Test match and if we have to play a drawn series, there is no use coming here. I don’t think it will produce a result and tomorrow will be more like batting practice.*

He is quite right in what he says … when even for his standards it’s like batting practice then u know something (or quite a few things) has gone wrong dreadfully … the poor curator will be like a donkey in the village where everyone is out there to beat him

BTW Gangu must be spanking himself for opting out of the opening combo coz this pitch would’ve been the ultimate helper for his disputed claim for a place in teh side … and a vertain guppy wanted to do something special if Gangu crosses the score of 39
