Whatever happens in Aus tour Dravid, Sachin and Laxman need to retire after that. I know I will a get a lot of hate replies but there is no more point in them carrying on after that (Now that No. 1 (way over-hyped by media) rank is lost).

Interesting to see many comments here to rest players for WI series to stay fresh for Aus tour.. Exactly they did the same b4 Eng tour and whn they fail(not exactly) in Eng, there were more comments here questioning their REST.. hmm.. Every coin has 2 sides.. :))

i think dhoni should be rested for whole tour test and odi series so that he is fresh to demolish aus acheive dream of a every true indian fan who knows abt cricket no those who just see IPL i think gauti shoulde be captain team viru gauti dravid/laxman/sachin( two of them for every test rest one in every game) virat rohit parthiv ashwin ojha pk ishant(if fit or umesh yadav) reserves rahane abdullah aaron saha from these best team for aus test should be picked

This is unbelievable!!! Why are we playing ODI's into December. India has a very important tour coming up in Australia and players need to be fresh. Unless you are planning to play a B-team.

Nice to see the Tests played at the traditional venues where there should be some good attendances.

The flat tracks in bangalore are not fit enough to play test cricket which will produce boring high scoring draws.. So its better to play in sporting tracks..
