2nd Test v/s SAF - Sachin out due to groin injury, Kumble doubtful. Meanwhile Mohd. Kaif makes a comeback as Sachin's replacement.

It was long over due for Kaif. A very welcome decision by the selectors I feel.

i doubt if he will play though with yuvraj singh & rohit sharma waiting in the wings

normally_crazy · 30th March 2008, 23:58

Well Yuvraj is out with injury and Rohit isn't in the 15 - so he has a good chance of playing I feel.

Its time for reforms in the test team (like it was done in ODIs). Let the people who are 'victims' of reforms play IPL/ICL T20 matches.

It would have made more sense to get Rohit Sharma in rather than Kaif.
Anyway lets see if he can make the most of this chance, if he gets to play that is!
If he gets a big one, who will they drop in next match? Ganguly?

Currently, he is the weakest link.

India 53/5

maddy42 · 3rd April 2008, 10:43

Great guess they want the match to be over in 2 days.

Eddy · 3rd April 2008, 10:44

Anyone watching ? Is the pitch playing funny or is it us ?

diabloo · 3rd April 2008, 10:46

Now its 55/6.
Guess the team is getting ready for IPL.

Surprise · 3rd April 2008, 10:48

Recovery from this stage is very difficult. Our tail is exposed now. Reports say its easy to play on 2,3 & 4th days. Will SA pack India with an innings defeat?

diabloo · 3rd April 2008, 10:50

55/7 - Kumble gone. But still Pathan is there.
