And then Chawla. Urghhhhhhhhhhhh

I would understand Jadeja playing if we were playing 2 pacers. But this is ridiculous. Seems like they looked at the cricinfo team and thought how it could be made worse and came up with this team.

This is the worst selected team of my lifetime. It makes no logical sense.

zorax · 12-12-2012, 08:44 PM

I'd like to see Kohli with the new ball actually.

Yeah even Andrew Hilditch would probably have a chuckle at this one. Four spinners and Ishant Sharma on pitch which is obviously going to reverse... one has to wonder

Jadeja balances the side though, it's Chawla who's the complete surprise, at least for the fans because apparently Cricinfo were saying he was a favourite pick, why I have no idea.

Old spin quartet: Bedi, Prasanna, Chandrashekhar, Venkat
The new spin quartet: Ashwin, Ohja, Chawla and Jadeja

Wow.

zorax · 12-12-2012, 08:46 PM

Chawla just took 1/108 on this very pitch against Vidarbha.

Yes, lets toss him into a Test match against England. He should go just fine.

Happy with the England selection - 5 days of Root jokes.

Wow.

Obviously the new spin quartet are better because they can bat also!

Scaly to turn up and point out BCCI influenced by cricinfo and all that hizz. Also to mention Onions at least 8 times.

centurymaker · 12-12-2012, 08:48 PM

glad in a way that india's lost the toss. at least the batsmen won't be under pressure right away to score 450+

Who will keep when Dhoni starts bowling?

Group B: Vidarbha v Uttar Pradesh at Nagpur, Dec 8-11, 2012 | Cricket Scorecard | ESPN Cricinfo

that too a tailender

just great, I hope he gets pasted this match, that's how bad this selection is.

Pup Clarke · 12-12-2012, 08:50 PM

Jadeja's selection completely makes sense, but I just hope he's used as a front-line spinner.

Pothas · 12-12-2012, 08:50 PM

Surprised and very pleased that Root is selected. I like Samit but he is never going or be a test match batsman.

Even happier that we won the toss, let's not **** if up now please.
