Another humiliating defeat against Sri Lanka. Lankan batsmen proved that there is no miracle in the Dambulla pitch. Local Umpire Dharma sena played brilliantly for Sri Lanka and led his team to the final. Pakistan umpire Asad Rauf played the role of a supporting actor. But these may not justify the irresponsible batting of Indian batsmen.
This kind of miserable performance is only due to poor team selection. What is the role of Ravindra Jadeja in Indian Team? Is he Dhoni’s favourite? If so performance is not a constraint for him. If he took two or three wickets, the pitch is definitely a bowler’s paradise. If a situation demands runs from he definitely threw his wicket away like a tail-ender batsman. So every one knows that he is given more preference than any other guy in Indian team.
Attacking batsman “Saurabh Tiwary” is treated as “Tourist” by Indian captain & Co. Virat kohli is capable of scoring runs easily through lots of singles and attacking shots. He is a good choice for the first down position. Instead of using these resources in the reserve bench, under performing Jadeja is included in the final playing eleven of every match.
Dhoni played major role in eliminating Dada and Dravid from the ODI team citing fitness problems and need of aggressive batting. Now the captain is swallowing his earlier remarks for his team mate “Jadeja”. Otherwise, Jadeja may not get a chance even in the Reserve Bench of first class cricket matches in India.
