- Jaffer failed the whole series in Australia and continue to fail in home series and there is no talk on his performance or replacement.
- Physio says Tendulkar is not fit, but he declares himself fit, but does not show up for fielding for most part in first test and scores a duck. Guess what, he is indeed not fit and ruled out of series. He probably realized that all he needs is a few weeks rest to be ready for IPL, so played @ Chennai inspite of being not fit.
- RP singh was pathetic and not fit for first test, but played first test and performed badly, got a chance to play second test and bowled pathetically under helpful conditions.
- While RP singh is finally dropped, his place was taken by Munaf, which is even more surprising. Munaf has always either been unfit or whenever he played, his bowling was average and his fielding was always awful and have shown no signs of improvement in any area.
- Ramesh Powar in tests ahead of other spinners? Well, the less you say the better it is.
- Irfan Pathan in tests is a huge luxury and it has been proved on several occasions. We need a bowler who can bat a bit. Unfortunately Pathan looks like a batsman who cannot bowl.
- Kumble appears to be not fit either and he played in the second test too. He might play third as well since he is the captain.
- Kaif is included in the squad (huge surprise in first place) and might not get a chance before getting dropped again.
- Suresh Raina, Dinesh Karthik, Gambhir, Badrinath, Praveen Kumar, Rohit Sharma and bunch of others must be wondering what they need to do to get in to the squad.
- Modi and Bindra are busy trying to get every dollar added to the BCCI treasury, Pawar is not concerned about anything happening locally and looks either incompetent to solve issues or looks too keen to take over ICC, Vengsarkar is only busy promoting Mumbai players and not ready to accept any blame.
Meanwhile Indian fans are confused with all these questions, still trying to post mortem Ahmedabad defeat, anticipate Kanpur test and IPL and hope India wins inspite of all goof ups.

Shankar,
Looks like you have lot of time to follow hopeless Indian Cricket sitting in the US. You are using both of them to improve your writing skills. Good job.
