WHY DID THE SELECTORS SELECT YUVRAJ WHEN HE IS STILL INJURED? POLITICS BEHIND DRAVID’S SACKING. SRIKANT, SACHIN, SEHWAG, YUVRAJ OR DHONI?

WHY DID THE SELECTORS SELECT YUVRAJ WHEN HE IS STILL INJURED? POLITICS BEHIND DRAVID’S SACKING. SRIKANT, SACHIN, SEHWAG, YUVRAJ OR DHONI, WHO IS / ARE THE CULPRITS? (24th Oct 2009, 1925 Hrs)

Politics in BCCI is well-known all over the world. Each time the Indian team is selected for a series, controversies spread its evil tentacles viciously. The vicious intent of BCCI Selection Committee has been always against the best playing 11 and Captain always. Dravid’s omission from the team while return of injured Yuvraj in playing 11 is a shocking revelation indeed. If this is not a vicious case of corruption and politics, then why a brilliant player like Dravid has been made a scapegoat to accommodate an injured Yuvraj? Who is or are behind Dravid omission from Indian team?

Remember, how Dravid had to give up his captaincy because few team members were against him leading the team? However, his clean image to stay away from dirty politics has always worked against him. The Rock has always performed for the Indian team first before individual glory like Sachin, Sehwag and Yuvraj. While he performed at the Champions Trophy, Sachin failed to even score a two-digit run… Dravid dropped and Sachin’s place is intact. Strange isn’t it? Because the selectors say – “Performance was the criteria to be in the playing eleven.” So will the selectors as to how they have selected an injured Yuvraj, when he is still not fit for tomorrow’s match?

Has Sachin, Sehwag, Yuvraj, Srikant, Dhoni and the selectors joined hands together to sack Dravid from the team? Why? Is it because he performs always while the others are always nursing their injuries and licking each others’ ***? It is a clear case of ‘you lick mine, I will lick yours’ syndrome. Dravid is also a great fielder at slips while Sachin is always seen with heavy plasters in his both fingers, Yuvraj is always with the knee cap pads and plastered fingers…

It is indeed a pity that to safeguard their poor form with the bat, Sachin, Sehwag, Yuvraj and Dhoni have joined selector Srikant to sack Dravid from the team. Srikant should clarify to the nation as to why an injured Yuvraj was selected in the first place if he was still not fit for the first ODI tomorrow??? Well, wherever Sharad Pawar is there, dirty politics will always be played at the cost of our nation’s performance, pride and crores will be swindled…
