***Official*** India in Australia

Doesn't make sense to drop someone averaging 44.28 in ODIs over the last year. BCCI are ridiculous, and so is Dhoni if he wanted it. I believe in giving the captain what he wants, but Dhoni is a total knob if he wanted that.
Ganguly, based on the last 12 months - it makes as much sense to drop him from ODI's as it does to drop him from tests. (The slow batting argument is weak, his strike rate in 2007 is about what it is through his ODI career). Ganguly+Tendulkar opening were really producing in the ODI's, I thought.
Taking the whole of 2007 doesn't give you the right picture though. It includes some ordinary attacks in India before the WC. Since the WC, against SA, Eng, Aus and Pak he averages 34 in 20 matches.

Intersesting stats-
Since India's disastrous tour in 1991-92, the teams have met 21 times in Test cricket; the numbers now stand at 10-8 in Australia's favour. In the corresponding period Australia's record stands at 27-9 against England, 12-2 against Pakistan, 15-4 against South Africa and 9-1 against Sri Lanka.

Hopefully we will square it in india when you come this year.

How is that relevant to the statistic that he presented?
