i don't know why piyush is selected and on what basis he was selected.He hasn't played any ODI since 2008.Moreover will he be in final 11 ahead of Ashwin & Harbhajan is a million dollar question ??
ReplyDeleteyaah ,,selectors just thought of piyush as he was a leg spinner apart from aswin and bajji who are off spinners..i think any way piyush has less scope of being in final 11 squad.
ReplyDeleteThey can select ojha instead of chawla.den it would be more better.
ReplyDeleteAnd im very happy because dey didn't select parthiv...dhoni is always fit..so Der is no need of parthiv...
So far da team is very gud...lets see wat wil happen..
But u hve done vry gud job ra..
ReplyDeleteHow much patience do u hve?!
I even think why Rohit Sharma was neglected.......Its better to take ana experienced player than a debutant player.......
ReplyDeleteI will go with rohith sharma rather than aswin or piyush..... one spinner(bhajji) is enough.... its better to take irfan and uthappa........
ReplyDeleteyaah rohit would be a better choice,,but u know he is unlucky,,everu time he is out for umpires bad decisions,,and he is very lazy in the field..a controversial behavior..which made selectors to deviate away from rohit
ReplyDeletenice job buddy............:)
