There are only 3 Test-capable batsmen in the team: Vijay, Pujara, Rahane.

The rest - including Kholi - are more ODI-Tonty players. They should drop Dhawan and Binny (he scores once every 10 matches) immediately for Gambhir and Rohit (adds an offie).

pujara flatters to deceive.
kohli needs to step up.
tail pushed india to a respectable total but england will build a massive score.
Can indian bowlers pull off one of those rare bowling performances?
i doubt if they can do it at lord's.

THIS Binny never showed any magic even in Ranji. This guy is no Roger.

Dump him right away. Dhobi is playing plain politics. Does not want Gambhir and Sambhar in the playing XI

Do you know that he recently took 6 for 4 on a green top in Bangladesh? To be fair, that could be just a fluke but one can at least hope.

"Swinging Binny stuns Bangladesh".

madan lal and mhinder amarnath were of similar pace but bowled with lot more control. happy to be proven wrong.

Tbt, I refer to the word "inwffective" in the title line of your post. Do you have extremely fat fingers, or are you extremely old? I can't blame you for either; I merely want to know, so that I may remind myself to be charitable and forgiving towards you.
