Winning matches now is also important. If you take a under-19 player and give him too much importance, there is also a chance that he may go astray (like Parthiv Patel almost did). And these players deserve a chance..The Freudian Couchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02846833382241285200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4314046106336468344.post-90660007833205478262012-03-13T11:43:58.168-04:002012-03-13T11:43:58.168-04:00Hey Amit, it is not about getting paid and getting...Hey Amit, it is not about getting paid and getting looked after. There are too many issues, like too many teams playing Ranji trophy,4 days system, with point systems that reduce all matches to a single inning match. Many things could be done to improve it, foremost being modelling the point system on English county matches. Also, they can bring in a few players from other A teams, adding more The Freudian Couchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02846833382241285200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4314046106336468344.post-55374307910689270642012-03-13T01:44:13.138-04:002012-03-13T01:44:13.138-04:00Whoa!

They didnt get any chance before while they were waiting in the shadows. What I sincerely hope there is someone promising in U-19 or somewhere playing gully cricket - who can come into the team in next 2-3 years and the team grooms him well, not how these Amit Ahirehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12801028928085382832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4314046106336468344.post-16319949595787675842012-03-12T12:47:07.413-04:002012-03-12T12:47:07.413-04:00Ha ha :) Like Ian Chappel told about the Sri Lanka...Ha ha :) Like Ian Chappel told about the Sri Lankan team, Rajasthan is a champion team, not a team of champions.

You are spot on saying that players doing well in domestic matches do not necessarily do well internationally. It is because our domestic matches have a very poor format, and are played in poor pitches. And I don't agree that Dravid should have retired before. One reason is that I am a great fan of him.

He is leaving in a decent form, and that's good for him. :)<br />And Speaking of others. None of the replacements are good enough to replace Dravid, he had overshadowed so many talents for so long, we never know who is a good player to replace him in the internationalIzackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10699029285908382350noreply@blogger.com
