Badrinath gets his chance

Badrinath makes his debut as Gambhir pulls out of today’s game due to a stiff neck.

Now it is up to Badri to grab this unforeseen opportunity with both hands and make a reputation for himself.

NC,

Lets hope he continues this trend while batting.

Badri was lucky not to be sent as opener. When they want to discard somebody or ruin his career they send him as opener. He looks compact.

R,

The no.6/7 spot is equally dangerous.

good debut... I found it strange seeing him bat this low

Viswanathan said...

Ideally he should bat at no.3.

Looks like Badri got a decent opener. Agree OTTS he should bat at 3. I think he plays 4 for Tamilnadu, which might fit him well too. Hopefully he could establish well. Now is the right time. In Test, I think Ganguly is out, Yuvi not yet Test material, wonder what BCCI will do?

Slog,

I differ slightly. Most probably Dravid will get the axe. However, who gets the axe depends on what Tendulkar recommends to Sharad Pawar. :)
