Would like to know who in your opinion (in inda) has shown "natural athletism".... in any sports for that matter.
I am not talking about Manager.
Natural Athlete in India ... Out of what I have seen, some names comes out without much of a thought-
Kapil
Azhar
Jadeja
Kaif
Raina
Robin Singh
Karthik
Yuvraj
Leander
Dhanraj
Two players in Hockey - its funny, I can see the face but can't recall the names.
I am sure, I am missing some names here. Its just my way of looking at it.
I think we are talking about cricket and not athletics!!
One has to be a good cricketer. Kaif deserves not to be in the team. Enough chances. Just look at his records.

Forget opinions. Look at the facts. Gregg Chapell himself rated Raina as one of the good players who would have a great future. And see where he is. May be the future has not come yet. When the four (Ganguly, Sachin, Dravid, Laxman) are in the test side, where is the chance for another middle order bat? Agarkar has been given more number of chances than anyone else.

IMO, Raina was not given enough opportunity as compared to Agarkar and Dinesh Mongia. In fact Mongia hardly played cricket in India. Scoring runs against B'desh is a different story as against SA or the Aussies. Let's see what Uthappa will do against English bowlers.
