Get Sachin down the order, says Azhar
Aneyi (Varanasi), Nov. 5 -- Mohammed Azharuddin said Sachin Tendulkar could be more effective if he bats down the order.
Speaking to reporters while campaigning for Congress candidate J.P. Singh in Aneyi (Varanasi), Azharuddin said "a change in Sachin's batting order might work for the team."
Tendulkar has opened in all four ODIs against Australia with 40 in Mohali being his highest.
Azharuddin, a former India captain and now a Congress MP from Moradabad, said selectors should treat seniors equally and dubbed the current side as a "50-50" team.
"On one day the batting clicks and the other day the bowlers are a hit. Very seldom bowlers, batsmen and fielders click together which cannot make this side a champion side."

We have seen the referral system tried out at Wimbledon and it worked really well. There is no reason to believe that it will not work in cricket too.

The tourists missed Strauss's conviction in marshalling the side in the field and his batting is always valuable because he is such a fluid player when he is in form.
