First off a player of VVS's calibre should NOT be batting at 6.

So invariably he is the one to get caught in the rut to deal with the tail.

He clearly told in many interviews that after all his experiences and talking to his teammates he began to believe more in the tailenders much as Waugh used to.

Many times in the past in the team 2nd innings his valuable knocks are the reason we won matches.

I am sure if it is a selfish act his captains and coaches would have dealt with it by now.

So before we open our mouth rather type let us get real.

agree with you.

he has and so have others.

a fact that may have been exchanged amongst the relevant players.

Many times in the past in the team 2nd innings his valuable knocks are the reason we won matches.

without looking into individual matches ( which you are surely going to look into) the current averages indicate RD>SG>VVS>SRT, with regards to won matches and runs scored in the second innings.

I am sure if it is a selfish act his captains and coaches would have dealt with it by now
.

i dont buy that at all. there is no selfish streak in VVS. fullstop.

So before we open our mouth rather type let us get real.
this can be another discussion  ;D but if possible I will sway majestically away from such a discussion ;D

Of course. Do nto lose hope. We cannot risk a newcomer like Dhawan at no 3, so VVS will be the stable number 3.
