BEFORE THE WORLD CUP THE SELECTORS ARE FIXED THAT THE CUP IS BELONGS IO INDIA. BECAUSE THE SACHIN IS PLAYING HIS LAST WORLD CUP AND WANTS THE CUP IN HIS NAME ALSO THE COACU GRAY KIRSTEN THE CONTRACTS END AFTER THE WORLD CUP 2011 IF THE CUP BRINGS BY INDIA THEN IT IS FIXED
Dhoni was right when he said that India should be playing to its strength. Infact looking at the miserable performances of our bowlers...we should only consider playing Zaheer and Harbhajan...not because they can bowl but while bowling they are capable of contributing with the bat too. Also we should remove ashish nehra, piyush chawla & munaf, rather lets play more batsmen like raina...who shall also contribute to fielding. MISS Irfan Pathan, he is an ordinary medim pacer but so is our entire lineup of bowlers...he can bat excellent. Wish Dhoni implements what he said that india should play to its strength...than let there be bowlers like Zaheer, Harbhajan, Yuvraj, Yusuf pathan, tendulkar & viru do their job on bowling too. Playing additional two batsmen means as additional 40-50-60 or 80 runs. We can score unimaginably high score on flat wickets and very decent scores on difficult tracks...either ways the other side batsmen shall not have the strength and the depth to even reach for such a score. Another advantage is that we shall only loose in case batting lets us down miserably...that is one in a four chance...we increase our chances of lifting the cup three time more.

True ! Virat can bowl medium pacers and Gambhir can turn his arm for his leg spinners at least for a couple of overs.
What Gary wants to say that India was facing touch teams like Bangladesh, Ireland now and has really proved their skills and will face minnows like South Africa, Australia and Pakistan..which should be a cake-walk
was applied by in haste..as if to prove a point against BCCI ..without getting the right and full technology..it looks incomplete, inconsistent and ridiculous..ICC modifying lbw rules right in the middle of WC..bunch of jokers
All I can say that Yuvraj was looking pretty shaky even towards the end against Ireland bowling..his real test will be Steyn and Co. Roach and Co, Lee and Co. and rest of the fast bowlers..very tough and early to say that he has struck form
