second wicket keeper

Yeah I agree with Mr.Gaekwad.Since the WC is a long tournement it needs another wicketkeeper in case there are minor niggles to the main one.By selecting another WK ho could bat like Robin Uthappa this problem could have been avoided.Going by the not too bad form in the Ranji matches and also Duleep trophy matches R.Uthappa would have been a better choice than Suresh Raina whose form as well as confidence is low after poor performance in the tests as well as one dayers.There are two batting all-rounders ,in Yuvraj and Yusuf who could ,along with Sehwag fill up the 5th bowler's slot.This could have given that extra freedom to rest Dhoni in some inconsequential matches.

Dhoni is injured and he is replaced...as per WC rules,Dhoni can not return to the side. If the selectors were aware of this rule,Parthiv Patel should have been included in the team.
