[color=#444444][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=4]Former players, commentators and cricket experts want India to drop VVS Laxman and bring in Rohit Sharma in the Indian side which hasn't put up a convincing show with the bat.

[color=#444444][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=4]"I would still drop VVS [Laxman] and get Rohit [Sharma] in for next Test. Makes long-term sense. Give Virat [Kohli] one more Test ... just to be sure he does not belong here. VVS averages 20 in last 12 overseas innings. Even if he gets a good score in next Test, it will not serve India long. Also if Virat, before the tour, was India's next big thing, should he not get more than two Tests on his first stint in Australia?"[/size][/font][/color]

[color=#444444][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=4]"We can't always think short-term. We need to start building a team as well. Sachin [Tendulkar] still has the class, Rahul [Dravid] is very hard working but I am not sure how long Laxman will be able to continue. You can't phase out all the three seniors at a time. You have to do that gradually. The youngsters will learn only in the company of the seniors."[/size][/font][/color]

[color=#444444][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=4]"I would play both Virat and Rohit in Perth. You should let Virat play. He should be given more chances. If you drop him now, he will not enjoy his cricket anymore."[/size][/font][/color]

[color=#444444][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=4]"The pendulum has shifted. Indian cricket must be bold and be prepared to lose with younger players. Let them learn the ropes. There is no point losing with declining giants."[/size][/font][/color]
[color=#444444][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=4]Maninder Singh, former India offspinner[/size][/font][/color]

[color=#444444][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=4]"The bitter truth is that we don't have new champion players who can take up the mantle. We might have left the best behind. We've been spoilt by success in the past 10-12 years. The big batting guns have long covered up other shortcomings but they are nearing the end. The increased dependence on Tendulkar after more than two decades is a sign of poverty."[/size][/font][/color]

[color=#444444][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=4]"If you need to, play Dravid lower down and give the future No. 3 a go, maybe [Cheteshwar] Pujara. Play [Virender] Sehwag lower down if need be. Nothing is set in stone. We not only lack spirit and attitude but also the skill to adjust our technique. Our captain desperately needs ideas too."[/size][/font][/color]
