It would have been different and now at least vengsarkar would have understood difference between men and boys ,when he went out all guns targetting dravid,laxman and ganguly...of course tendulkar untouched. All these guys that are playing now(in this match) are used to playing balls at a speed of 120 kmph and probably never faced a short ball because nobody amongst the indian pacer balls one. just consider the the guys playing today. 1)gautam gambhir---might have a bad run in this one but used to playing and scoring centuries against sri lanka and bangladesh. 2)sehwag--would remain the way he is. 3)murli vijay-----god knows why shrikanth is so fond of him 4)badrinath---the guy hasnt played any international level cricket and you want him to debut against this pace attack when the pressure would be on him when big guns are absent. why not a raina or jaffer who would have shown some solidity (of course not to short balls,we have seen the world cup) but at least to fast deliveries 5) tendulkar --lonely guy 6)dhoni----???? 7)wridhiman saha----i couldnt stop laughing after seeing the way this guy was at the crease and he got out.I just felt a 5 yr old boy lost in a village "mela" looking for his parents. why do u play this guy?this guestion is not for dhoni as he had no choice that morning but to pick him,but to shrikanth. You are picking an additional wicketkeeper,as a replacement to dhoni..then Q1)why not karthik,at least he can hold the bat Q2) how much match practice did this guy have before coming to such crucial match Q3) if this guy was to be given a chance why not against bangladesh Q4)are we playing in some other country that you need a replacement .If dhoni for god sake would have been injured cant you replace him in the next one.Instead of that you could have had an additional batsman here.Utter nonsense 8)harbhajan singh--the guy seems to have lost it.only passionate abt fun and not cricket.doesnt like being told anything by anybody..bowling wayward.....instead of him irfan pathan would have better .both the guys bowl at more or less same speed.both are not picking wickets,but at least you would have somebody who can bat in absence of the big wigs. 9)zaheer khan--fine 10)amit mishra----better than harbhajan 11)ishant sharma----somebody give a counselling session
