Jinxed and Axed

Very.Very.Sad Laxman has been dropped again. I'm beginning to feel a bit sorry for him. I don't have his recent scores in ODIs at hand but going by this article in The Hindu, i feel he's been getting a raw deal from our selectors. Maybe the upcoming tournament will prove the selectors right, who knows.....
The good news is that Dravid has been made captain (albeit only because of Dada's injury) and hope he gets a long enough stint before he is judged. Greg Chappel is said to have remarked "All are equal but some are more equal than others" when asked about Sachin being brought into the team after his injury. Hope Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar roars back to form and justifies Chappel's statement.
