Dravid's selection blunder may lead to India's loss


Rahul Dravid has made the selection blunder of his life in the deciding third test of the India Vs South Africa test series.


Not selecting Harbhajan Singh and selecting an injured Munaf Patel was the most stupid decision Rahul Dravid could have ever made. Dravid has missed Harbhajan even in South Africa's first innings, the limitations of having only one spinner on a truly turning track have been felt. Every time the dust came up when a spinner pitched a ball close to the rough,Rahul Dravid must be regretting his decision to drop Harbhajan Singh from the Indian cricket team


Rahul Dravid must be finding Munaf Patel an embarrassment to the Indian cricket team


Rahul Dravid has known that Munaf Patel cannot field and bat even in normal circumstances,but today,Rahul Dravid and the entire Indian cricket loving public probably figured out that Munaf Patel is too injured to even bowl in this crucial third and deciding test of the India Vs South Africa cricket series


Dravid must be cursing his decision to select Munaf Patel instead of Harbhajan since Munaf has been struggling to bowl even at 120 kmph with a new ball. It has been a ridiculous decision for Dravid and his Australian coach with weird ideas and India may live to regret the decision. On a cricket pitch tailor made for the Indian cricket team, India may still pull off an unexpected victory,but victory would have been really easy if Dravid had selected Harbhajan Singh

In hindsight picking 3 fast bowlers was probably a mistake. However, i don't share your apparent contempt for Greg Chappell, and i don't consider the selection decision to be a "blunder".

Harbhajan Singh has been in horrendous Test match form recently and India are unlikely to play Kumble and Harbhajan overseas now, given the fact that they have 3 decent fast bowlers. The only way India will play 2 spinners overseas is if they play 5 bowlers, and in Irfan Pathan's absence i doubt that they will do that.
