I am not sure how Dhoni picked piyush instead of Ojha?? On any given day, Ojha is much better proven bowler. Now, Dhoni is suffering with Piyush chawla.

100 % Agree. But in Indian Cricket team Quota System is such that only one player from south can be selected.So Ashwin in Nehra Out. Piyush Chawla looks line Inzamam of Indian Cricket Team.ie : "ALOOO"
Team should be with players who can bowl. If one fails, there are other options in the pool. No place for only batsmen. This is the World Cup, nothing gets bigger than this. Dhoni, if you win the toss, bat first regardless, because our strength is batting, esp. on flat pitches. We have enough depth, to post a 370 score, which means: first 10 at 5/over, second 10 at 6/over, third 10 at 8/over, last 20 overs at 9/over (imagine an extended version of T20). Otherwise, no chance against Aussies, South Africa, Sri Lanka.

Because Sachin Gaikwad was dropped on his head as a child. thats why he dropped tendy from his illustrious list
I didn't read the article but Rahul Dravid should shut the F up. Rahul, after the disastrous World Cup 2007 said "I hope people realize it's just a game and performance should not be evaluated based on a tournament which comes once every 4 yrs"

SK. I don't know why you are angry with Dravid, what had he done wrong with. Cricket is played as a team and all the 11 members are responsible for a win and loss. He was the most devoted player in the Indian team. Stop maligning people

Mr Exit. I am not talking abt team's performance. I understand its a team game. I am talking abt Dravid's attitude abt the world cup. Dravid "Eats, Sleeps and Lives Cricket" if Pepsi gives him money for a commercial. But if India exits after first round in World cup 2007, then cricket is "just a game" for Dravid.

I agree. A possible scenario is, one of them gets injured and out of WC, and then Vinay Kumar called in. Then its a well balanced bowling team.

Buddy please check Sreesanth's stats. He is better test bowler. Nehra and Munaf are much better bowlers in ODI.

munaf can continue hitting the right line and length in his bowling so it is difficult for the batsmen to pik him.batsman have to take a risk wile hittinf munaf.its not good to drop munaf
