Felipe Massa says he is considering switching to either DTM, World Endurance Championship (WEC) or Formula E for 2017, following his retirement from Formula One.The Brazilian announced at the Italian Grand Prix that he would not be continuing to race in F1 in 2017, bringing to an end a 14-year career in the sport. Massa made it clear that he wants to compete in another series for next season but believes competing in America or Brazil is an unlikely scenario.No, I dont think it will be [Brazilian] Stock Cars, not IndyCar, Massa said. I think maybe it will be DTM, WEC or Formula E -- maybe one of these three I think. Everythings open, totally open.I have some people [interested] but I just need a little bit of time to think about it and decide in the best way. As I said, I will race, I just need to understand what will be the right choice that I will keep enjoying and having fun.The Williams driver insists he has no regrets over his decision to leave F1 at the end of this year and feels a sense of relief having made the announcement.It was a relief straight away after I said, not just after Monza. To be honest, after Monza now its the same. I am still happy with my decision and trying to enjoy and have fun in all of these last seven races.For sure the fun is also more fun if you have a good result, so that is what I am trying to do. So I hope we can have a good and enjoyable last seven races.Cheap Jerseys From China .

They had, after all, lost two of the four matches until then.This touring New Zealand side was a weak team, and though India rested some key players, they should have done better in the ODIs - a fact, I am sure, not lost on the team management and selectors. More so given how India beat New Zealand 3-0 in the Test series.The team management and the selectors, essentially those in charge of the destiny of the Indian cricket team, must never think like the fans, who left happy seeing India win the series in grand style in Vizag.Bishan Bedi tweeted during the one-day series that the difference between the two sides was Virat Kohli. He was quite right. India in this series looked a bit like the India of the 90s, where it was basically about beating them by getting Tendulkar out early. Indian cricket has come a long way since then, and dependence on one man should not be allowed to take root. Its a sign of a weak team, which India are certainly not.MS Dhoni looked really good in Mohali when he got 80, showing that he is still a batting force in this one-day team. However, I am not a big fan of him at No. 4. People throw up his impressive numbers at four and make a case for him to bat there, but he has played at that position only a few times in his long career - not enough for those numbers to carry much weight.With the rule change in one-dayers, captains are now forced to keep five fielders inside the circle after ten overs until the 40th over. Dhoni at four will mostly bat in this phase, so he has to start his innings with five players inside the circle, all intent on saving singles. Dhoni has never been a batsman who easily taps the ball around and picks up four singles an over, like, say, Kohli does. Those are the kind of batsmen you need at that position, batsmen who are able to take singles at will, while hitting the odd boundary.To add to Dhonis problems, often he has to start his innings in this phase against spinners, and not seamers, against whom he gets going better, like in Mohali when he got that splendid 80. What then happens is that his strike rate for his first 30 runs is extremely low. He then backs himself to make up for the deficit later with his amazing ability to hit under pressure, but when this late surge does not materialise, he has about 40 off 80 balls.If Dhoni wants to bat at No. 4, he must be able to get his first 40 runs off at least 50 balls, so that, even if he gets out, the innings has not lost momentum. At No. 4 he also feels the added pressure of being more responsible and restrained, not looking to frequently hit the big shots to maintain a decent strike rate. For if he gets out doing so, he looks highly irresponsible - as opposed to doing the same at No. 6 or 7.I am told that under Gary Kirsten, India had a simple formula with Dhoni. He would bat when there were ten or 15 overs left in the innings, no matter how many wickets were lost at that stage. This makes a lot of sense, because batting in that situation is Dhonis USP, really. When the field is spread out and the adrenaline of both teams is running high, thats when Captain Cool really comes into his ownn.ddddddddddddAjinkya Rahane, despite his obvious class and value for India as a Test player, is not quite the same in one-dayers, which is surprising. When Kohli bats, you can see that he has a clear plan in his head about how to approach an ODI innings, which is mostly influenced by the teams needs. It seems Rahane cannot make up his mind whether he wants to be a dasher or an anchor at the top of the order. The thing is, Rahane has the ability to hit the big shots and also to use his hands to hit through the line and get boundaries off good balls. This ability actually adds to his confusion.Rahane has the skills to be an attacking one-day player, and also to be the glue that keeps Indias one-day innings together. The team management could perhaps assist him in resolving this conflict by telling him which Rahane they want in 50-overs cricket. Manish Pandey, on the other hand, was such a let-down for me. After that hundred in Sydney earlier this year, I had my eye on him to see how he develops as a one-day middle-order batsman. I thought this series was an excellent opportunity for him to cement his place in the side. Unfortunately he seems to be from the school of batting where players bat like they need 15 runs an over when the need is for only six an over. The bulk of a one-day innings is about scoring six an over, so is it worth investing in a young batsman who takes big risks to just get those six runs an over? Unless Pandey changes his ways, I dont think hes one for the future.Kedar Jadhav is an interesting player, and so multifaceted. He is a prolific first-class batsman, who on average has been scoring close to 500 runs per Ranji season. In the IPL he bats at No. 6 and successfully chases 12 runs an over, and whats more, keeps wicket too. Then he comes into this India-New Zealand one-day series and shows that he can bowl some decent offspinners as well.But is he a long-term prospect for India? My worry is that his fitness, while running between the wickets with the likes of Kohli, Dhoni, Rahane and Suresh Raina, might just fall short of the high standards set by them.For once Indias bowling overshadowed their batting in a one-day series at home. It was mainly the bowlers who were instrumental in India winning the series, with Hardik Pandya getting the Man-of-the-Match award in Dharamsala and Amit Mishra the Man of the Series.I wonder when the bowlers last held sway like this over an entire one-day series in India. Pandya for me was a revelation. From a bits-and-pieces cricketer he has suddenly become a seamer you can earmark to bowl ten overs. His batting is an added bonus.The brightest spot in the series, though, was Umesh Yadav, who seems to have finally found accuracy without sacrificing pace or swing.As Axar Patel started getting some runs down the order, he also got better as a bowler. Here is someone India can keep in their one-day plans - if not for anything, to push Ravindra Jadeja to be at his best.Who would have thought a review of a one-day series for India at home would end like this, where some batting issues need to be addressed, while the bowling seems fine?
