They should have selected either of (Uthappa/Raina) Missing Prospects: Shikhar Dhawan (atleast he should have played B'desh, lesser risk team) Goni (can be a good replacement for either RPSingh/Sreesanth, also a good sloger in the end) Venugopal for Praveen Kumar
if yo pathan,raina,ojha is inside the team bcz of their good perfomances in ipl, then why RP,Uthappa,Ishant & also for some extent Praveen kumar is inside team, there are many performers who are still outside team, Shikhar Dhawan,Gony, parthiv, Abhishek nayar, & if you check records Dravid & Ganguly both did good job as compare to robin uthappa, I think team is just choosen by the will of Dhoni.....if he likes any player he is inside the team. Great job selectors...

yes Uthappa is not the best batsman but he is the best physique player Indian team ever had... he is not over weight...

Three cheers to Dr. Anand C Loya !!! i agree with this team !!! But Praveen Kumar is good too ... He can be given one more chance ...
Come on guys just on the basis of one IPL which is 20-20 tournament cannot gurantee players a national cap.. Many of the players selected here are the same who did india proud down under..let gony, nayar, amit perform consistently.. m sure they will get their call... everyone has their favourites but right now India is facing a problem of plenty.. thats the sad part that not everyone can get a chance..
Our Selectors should have knowledge of diff.between 20-20 & 50-50.They saw few superbe ferformance on that basis,they have taken Yusuf pathan & Ojha in indian ODI squad.This fielders are Good for only 20 not 50overs.Potential vice i think Goni&Rohit Sharma deserves their place in Indian Squad.

Praveen and pyuish should have been omitted.. even Shewag is not a 50 - 50 player.. jus a 20 20 player

They should have atlest one senior in the team always to guide the captain and others.In absence of sachin(senior who won the World series in australia)ganguly(whoz in good form)could have been included. This serious will show failure of Yousuf pathan's Batting in 50-50.hez only 20-20 player can't fit for longer version. Shewag blows better offspin than him
