Bhaji does good work on the field

Imagine that.

Just when you thought he was a professional dancer and talk show guest, the man pulls out wickets, away from home even.

And boy did he need them, because he has been flat away from home for a long time now.

He has been flat in general even.

You could argue that his ten wickets are still on the sub continent, and you would be correct.

But they are against a fairly well put together opposition, so they still count.

The problem for India is, how long to you pick Bhaji knowing that the next test he plays outside the subbie he will probably go wicket less again.

Looking at his series in Australia, and putting aside bastard monkey gate, he was marginally better than Brad Hogg.

And who wants that on their tombstone.

Bhaji has pulled out an Ian Bell here, but will the selectors look deeper.

In the future India need bowlers who will perform everywhere, not just at home.

That is if their aim is to be the number one test nation.

And I am not sure it is.www.cricketwithballs.com
