Sehwag was the Indian Hayden - great as long as the attack and/or pitch weren't against him...
thats where the applied bit comes in.....

I think Hayden was a better player than sehwag.
They were similar type of players though.

I'd go the other way, albeit only slightly.

Fair enough mate, its a line argument really. Probably comes down to personal preference.

Although from memory Hayden finished with an average of 40+ against 7 out of the 9 test nations and at least 30+ against all of them(im not 100% on these stats), where as Sehwag averages less than 30 against South Africa, England and New Zealand!

Still both are very good players.

Haddin in for the injured wade as well, this is truly staggering. What a shambles!!

Maybe they didn't bring anything to the team so that's why they didnt do their homework?

love the comparison to KP, however I pretty sure KP wouldn't get dropped for not using powerpoint and I very much doubt Andy Flower would take the same "homework" approach. I bet Warne will love this....

"Line in the sand moment" - what for getting rid of your decent players?

If Clarke's back goes before the next test then that will make my day. It'll serve him and Arthur right.

I can picture poor Mitchell Johnson with his pen in hand, scratching his head. Sat next to a bin full of rolled up bits of paper overflowing out of the top.

Surely the rolled up bits of paper would have missed the bin and be scattered on the floor?
