The Seniors make it

The Indian team keeps its pride intact. After a sporting declaration by India A, yuvraj singh and sehwag scored centuries to take the seniors to victory. We must note that the axe was hanging on their necks. Laxman and dravid wasted a good opportunity to get some batting practice. It would have been good if they had won by seven wickets instead of five. Tendulkar was named in the fifteen member squad, even when he says he is able to play 15 balls a day without pain. I do hope he recovers fully before playing. It is idiotic to think in short term about sachin. what is the use if you make him play one test and aggravate his injury? Now Srirams place in the team is in doubt. Kaif made a very good pitch for a test spot. He might be able to get the captains nod ahead of Sriram. In the other match Australians did not seem in much trouble against the mumbai attack. Bahutule troubled matthew hayden with his spin. Bhajji and kumble might as well take a leaf out of his book.( I really think I am suffering from cryptamnesia).
