Will Emerald Isle spark Test rejuvenation?

Team selections are a big thing, especially when it involves Indian cricket and an overseas Test tour. Discussions rage long and hard, whether on television channels or in print/digital space, within the confines of one’s living room or in a crowded, noisy watering hole where it’s almost impossible to hear even the person sitting next to you. The beauty about cricket in India is that everyone and his dog has an opinion on almost everything, and no one is shy of voicing it. That’s how it has been, and that’s how it will be, because that is what cricket means to so many in our country.
