Tough job for the Selectors

There are a number of questions which come up after this match making the job of the selectors tough.

1) Why was Ganguly dropped in the first place when Sehwag was in poor form and Ganguly in prime form before this series?

2) Will India continue to play a batsmen short or a bowler short for the remainder of the series? India lost by not playing Sehwag today and lost to Sri Lanka by playing a bowler short.

3) What is Robin Utthapa doing 6th down in the batting order? We all know him as a very good opener. He should have opened with Tendulkar since Gambhir is establishing himself as a very good one down batsmen thus strengthening the middle order.

4) Why was Yuvraj given 4 overs when India had managed to put Australia in great pressure? In the end Ishant Sharma the pick of the bowlers bowled an over short. Similarly Munaf Patel and Sreesanth bowled 1 over and 2 overs short respectively. Yuvraj’s 4th over cost India 12 runs. We could have bowled Ishant Sharma when Australia were 6 down and managed to get them all out.

5) We need an all rounder like S Badrinath in the side. Why was he not picked for this series? He was picked for the previous series but was not given a game. Further a middle order batsman who can bowl could help India to fill in the 5th bowlers gap and also strengthen the batting line up?

6) When will Suresh Raina get his first game?

7) When will the Indian batsmen be able to chase low scores without pressure? In fact they will need to put pressure on the opposition side?

8) Will Yuvraj come in form and play sensibly for the remainder of the series?
