India bowling is waste.. 1. we scored 370 in turn bangla scored 292. 2. we scored 338 in turn england scored 338 3. we chased with difficulty with Ireland and Netherlands. 4. we scored 297 in trun S.A scored 301.
This means what ever you score your bowlers will give away all those runs.
India team does not have the capacity to win this world cup. we are again proving to to paper tigers.
India may not be qualifying for QF by some way. I hope It should not happen. However, India may not got to SF level based on performance seen in the last matches in WC when compared other teams. Our strength and weakness is both batting only. Though we say batting is our strength, why can't we opt for chasing the whatever the total given by opponents. It is not possible, our batters will fall like 11 pins. Only the possibility is to score maximum runs and restrict with the available bowling. Finally bowlers are better than our batters (while chasing). At present, bowling is weak (specially Bhajji). Hence, seems to be no chance unless fixed by BCCI for reputation sake or Sachins' sake.

Why for Sachin's sake? Sachin may not like to be a part of match fixing world cup.
As a captain of the indian team led by msd he should play some cricket put some runs on the board since we see he is not playing well in the test matches 2years and as well as one dayers also and we can watch in world cup also by luck all of us we beliving he is a successful captain how far it will help in s/f africa matches once sachin and gambir departed no one able to settled and not able to play 8 overs its a shame for the indian cricket team and especially to dhoni and he should drop the pathan and pick up the raina
While we depend mainly on batting strength to win matches both our fielding which is almost the poorest among the test playing countries and bowling which is very ordinary many India fans are losing confidence that India can lift WC this time.

Pradeep... We can understand if they were 20 for 2 or 40 for 3 and later on posted 297.......But they were 267 for 1 and none of the batsmen coming next showed any sense in their shots........And dhoni shld not hv given the last over to Nehra......he could have bhajji bowl the 49th and Zak the 50th........

we may still miss the QF boat if beaten by WI, and bangaldesh beats S africa we CANNOT at all go forward as we have the weaknesses you clealry noted
I really thought Kohli will replace dravid in SA match. His failure cost around additional 30 runs and we could play 50 overs. But sorry... we miss you Dravid...
Nehra is not 100% fit & he is not a good fielder. His bowling is very ordinary. instead of him we could ve tried with Ashwin.He is good spinner & he can bowl in powerplays

Munaf would be first change with Zaheer and Sreeshant opening with new ball. He bowls with line and length. Can be used in death overs, power plays as well.
Chawla is leg-spinner and Aswin is off-spinner. Chawla can take wickets. He can also bat.

Raina builds innings well. He bats better than Yuvraj. He has stikes ball well. Especially in death overs.
