Dravid, If you think India needs Sachin now, let me ask you whether he was not needed when India was whitewashed in England and Australia.What was his contribution? If you think India needs Sachin, they need Gavaskar and Kapil Dev as well, ask them to come out if their retirement and play for India.Of course we miss you, Dada and VVS as well.That would be good , play for eternity, no retirement!!
Posted byThe point being missed in this interview is that its not as if Harbhajan was super effective in getting the English batsmen out. Monty was spinning it at considerable pace and I dont think the track would have suited any of the indian spinners. So the question of underutilising a spinner does not arise as all of them were ineffective. I doubt if the outcome would have been different if the spinners were used differently.
