R.Jadeja is totally out of form ( nowdays even as a fielder he is pathetic ) & Irfan Pathan is not playing cricket after IPL 2010, struggling with Injuries and even not playing Ranji trophy this days.So Yusuf will be the better all-rounder option for the WC..Ishant and Uttapha not played in ODI from long time and Ashwin is much better option in ODI then Ojha...
So in my opinion this will be the best 15 for India in WC 2011....

No! based on one match you have selected yousuf. Last time samething happened with utappa as opener! Irfan is not in the team for a long time and how to u expect him to be in the team? I would say Ishant in place of praveen and Ashwin in place of Nehra or based on the team needs

Solomon:
You are right... since the crunch situation starts after Sachin gets out, he can hardly deliver in crunch situation unless you allow him to bat for someone else... :)

You are right. Once the cruch situation comes, Sachin gets out and there will be no VVS or Dravid to save the situation. If Baji can bat with no.11 and score a century, why can't Sachin? Elementary Mr.Pseudos - You have to bat for the team in cruch situations not for personal records.....

Rightly said Mr.Pseudos..so many times Sachin scored but India lost the match and blames comes to Sachin..take as example 2009 ODI series against Australia at Hyderbad he scaored 175 runs.. when he got out then also India was on winning position but with the help of our tailanders we lost that match..then 1999 tests against Pakistan at Chennai he scored 136 with injury but after he got out India lost the match...same thing happen in 1996 WC semifinal against SL...etc etc....But then also Sachin is targeted and people are saying that he only play for his records.
Mr SOLOMON u r telling that Bhajji can bat with no 11 and score century, why can’t Sachin... Then for ur memory I will tell u that u will be remember in 2004-2005 series against Bangladesh where Sachin & Zaheer made 133 runs for the last wicket partnership and Sachin scored 248* also his highest score in tests and Zaheer who also made an useful contribution of 75 in that match.. Why I want to tell u that even Sachin also score double century with no 11 batsmen in tests.. He already achieved so many things in his life expect winning WC.. so before writing something against Sachin please know the proper knowledge of him and then comment..

that not a joke,,, it says how important is sachins presence on pitch,,,, match will be in control till he is on wicket.... India have hopes if he is there..
It's a tough road for India as we have quite a number of teams who are quite good-South Africa, Sri Lanka, England, Australia,Bangladesh & West Indies. The WC series would be with these 6 countries....including India....therefore it is really a tough road for India!!! I am putting my money on West Indies for this World Cup though the other 5 as mentioned above may have a chance too!!!
