On Bowling plan, Zaheer should be used in short spells.. like 4,2,2,2 overs. Ashwin to start bowling with with Zaheer Pathan, Yuvi, Munaf carries in the middle overs. Bhaji will be used as a key bowler whenever the going gets tough...
On Batting, Kohli comes in as 1 down and play a calm innings to stick on at one end. If he fails to do that, Gmabhir should come at 2 down and calm one end and the other batters should play around these guys free flowingly. Sachin, Sehwag(If fit), Raina, Yuvi, Pathan, Bhaji can go on with thier own style of batting and we should ask them to switch the style as they can't adopt qucikly. Sachin, Kohli and Yuvi is going to be key in batting and in bowling Yuvi, Zaheer and a leg spinner( chawla for Ashwin) will be the key.

Re: IF CAN NOT HANDLE POWERPLAY IN THE END
by R Roy on Mar 23, 2011 08:48 PM
Not a good idea..Powerplay should be taken as soon the old ball gets changed if we are only 1 or 2 wicket down.. or from 42 to 46th over is the best. We need to bat sensibly in the power play and not to aim for 6s and 4s. Batters should be informed the target we are going to set if we bat first dynamically as and when the game progress...

Yes...U r right...India winning is most important.....But some person saying... if sachin hit century...India will lose that game.....that's why i gave that above information............
The best team for the game against Australia is 1. Sewhag. 2. Tendulkar. 3. Virat Kolhi. 4. Raina. 5. Yuvraj Singh. 6. Yusuf Pathan. 7. Dhoni. 8. Ashwin. 9. Zaheer. 10. Harbhajan. 11. Sreesanth.
1. Raina should be retained in the place of Gautham Gambhir, who is out of form since September-2009. Also, Raina is a better fielder & useful bowler than Gambhir. 2. Raina should be sent ahead of Yuvraj Singh because Yuvraj has played only against the weaker teams & he cannot take the singles/force the pace in the middle overs that too against Australian bowlers. Taking singles is the middle overs is the key to success which Virat Kolhi & Raina are best at. 3. Yusuf Pathan should be sent when spinners (Kreja) or Shane Watson operate because he can handle them easily & not in the power plays when Lee or Tait is operating. 4. Munaf patel should in now way be selected because he does not know to Bat, Field or Bowl. In comparison, Sreesanth is a better fielder than Munaf, can score at least 2 runs/hang around & is a much more aggressive/strike bowler than Munaf/Nehra. 5. Also, Ashwin who is a better batsman than Harbhajhan Singh & Zaheer should be sent after Dhoni. 6. Power plays should be taken in-between the 35th & 45th overs when players like Yuvraj is batting who will not throw his wicket easily.

Raina should come one down in slog overs. Pathan should bat at no. 7 and Dhoni should bat at 6

Dhoni has unsettlled Indian team with his stupid selection, arbitrary batting order changes, awful bowling options that it would be difficult to nuetralize brett Lee,Johnson & Tait only outstanding performance by whole team can make Indian victory possible.let us hope so
Re: WE CAN WIN: IF PROPER TEAM IS SELECTED:
by vimal singh on Mar 23, 2011 09:23 AM
you are correct. If we follow this, we will definitely win. Bowlers hsould bowl York balls too and in block hole. They should bowl as per fielding and fielding should be as per batsmen;s weak point.

Dhoni has turned out to be one dumb captain.. instead of shuffling and setting a proper team for the knock outs, bugg@r played baby sitter to chawla.. biggest mistake of the world cup.. he shd have brought back sreesanth, built his confidence.. yes, sree has personality disorders.. but as a captain, dhoni was responsible to ensure that all that aggressiveness was channeled into beautiful deliveries.. and ashwin.. I really dont understand why that brilliant player was not included in the beginning stages of the WC.. The famed and feared batting line up should have crushed the opposition like a bug.. yet we were scraping thru even with small timers.. Dhoni shd revise his strategies and quit playing politics.. every member in his team is present coz they have proved their worth at some stage of their sports careers.. build on that.. and pls bring back the helicopter shot.. India can bring home the cup, provided you show the boys a good route and back them up with confidence and support.

Loosing too many wickets after scoring huge runs in the first 40 overs is not a big deal and can be overcomed. Apart from this, India not failed in the WC.
On bowling, Zah and Yuvi is in good form. We expected bhaji to take wickets..but as long as he is conrolling the run rate thats fine.. Pathan is also good in economy. Weeklinin the bowling is Nehra and he is no more in the team.. Sree can be tested by Munaf but Sree is not consistent and easily predictable by the opponents. So better to play Munaf as his teasing line and wicket to wicket bowling is defintely a plus and easy to set fielding for dhoni.
