Reading an interview of Vengsarkar about general selection issues and the WC squad, I did a double-take on this:


Apart from Powar, was any player discussed?
Yes. Ashish Nehra and Dinesh Mongia.


Whaa? Ashish Nehra??? I'm guessing here that Vengsarkar is merely stating the facts about the meeting, still, the name of Nehra even being discussed at all as a prospect leaves one filled with disbelief..He wasn't even included in the list of 30 probables, last that I remember..
