against weaker opposition... real test is sa... hard to repeat/carry on winning habit against stronger opposition in bouncy track... gala,sabkaa,sukhataa,hai...
This proves the worth of Sachin's absence. We click better as a team. There is no pressure on captain and coach to accommodate Sachin at the top and sacrifice a genius like Gambhir by sending him lower down the order. Sachin, please get injured at least until after the world cup and wish you speedy recovery after that :)

Dont Expect these so called youngsters to score runs in Bouncy Pitches. Let Raina and Kohli score in Bouncier South African Tracks. Even Sachin will not score much

Why underestimate new players?
Not only Kohli, Raina, even Badrinath and Pujara will score onSA pitches, provided they are given continuous chances (like given to M Vijay).
However these new players are not given regula place, because then place of likes of Dravid is theatened, who want to prolong their career to maximum , at the cost of the team.

Why u underestimate them
If Pujara, Badri, Kohli are given continuous chance they will becopme threat to our establshed stars like Dravid, who want to make maximum possible money at fag end of their careers.

Guys...Young indian won the two consecutive matches vs unform NZ...where they lost the series against bang 4-0...this team can not perform vs aussie / engie / southies...dont write whatever u want....
all north-south paaliticks..if narth player plays well..its naarth paaliticks..if south player plays well..its south paaliticks.. v shud not care bout India's victory..we should be concerned about idiotic north-south poitics
unfortunately for sachin and his blind fans he did not play in the 1st 2 odi against NZ otherwise he would have won them both single handedly. but now we have to be satisfied with 2 team effort wins.
I am not sure why Vijay is keep on getting the chances even though he was failing. Atleast Ashwin is doing great and I believe he needs some opportunities. Vijay is getting the opportunities like karthik used get. Instead of Vijay why can't selectors give opportunities to players like M Pandey or Pujara or Uthappa or Rahane or Rayudu. Not sure why S Tiwari was not getting any opportunities. I believe india is having very good channces in this world cup if selectors play good politics. Not sure if Srikanth is going to do that as chairman.

He is not singled time out within single digit in odi. His average in test is amasing. So one innings may change its carrier in odi

He is main reason india win today. If vijay out within 1 or two overs. This is difficult for others. Please check what happened last match 240/5 to 276. Vijay played attacking on last match. Defence today match. He is improved lot wait for this series and tell your opinion
