Online consumers unhappy with Indian squad

NEW DELHI: In an era when television channels are urging viewers to use the SMS to send in their votes on crucial questions, MSN India and Windows Live India is conducted a series of polls on issues of interest to online consumers.

 

According to one such poll, 83 per cent of those who responded to a poll on the state of Indian cricket have said they are not happy with the team selected for the Bangladesh tour.

Interestingly, a majority of the 17 per cent who are happy want to know why Sehwag has been retained.

MSN India and Windows Live India have been conducting a series of online polls ranging from topics of national importance and sports to lifestyle and relationships. They reflect the voice of the Indian Online users.

 

After India‘s World Cup debacle and the subsequent resignation of Greg Chappell as coach, Ravi Shastri was appointed as the cricket manager for the Bangladesh tour. At the time, Shastri had said that a young team would be selected for the Bangladesh tour.

However, the only new face in the Indian squad for the ODI matches is Bengal‘s Manoj Tiwary. The selectors have recalled youngsters like Piyush Chawla, Gautam Gambhir and RP Singh, but have retained Sehwag for the one-dayers. In the Test squad, there is no new face.
