He was dropped because he was unfit. Did you notice his tummy during IPL? He was rushed back to cricket after his recovery from cancer. However, if he manages to regain his full fitness, he would still be an asset to our ODI and T20 squads.
Not sure about Zaheer lasting till WC 2015. Hope he can get fit for the SA test series. A fit Zaheer would add a lot of strength to the bowling. Hope Zaheer is still motivated to play in the tests.
Yuvraj , Zaheer and Harbhajan are wrongly being termed as " veterans" by BCCI . They are in early 30's . If that is the yardstick , then Dhoni , 32 is also a veteran and should be removed from the team .Indian team has been winning recently but on sub continent like tracks both in Champions Trophy and West Indies .Indian team, especially batting would be exposed left ,right and centre when they tour South Africa and play 4 test matches on bouncy pitches like in Durban , Cape Town ,Port Elizabeth and Centurion .Raina might be a brilliant fielder , but a mediocre batsman . In 120 odd ODI's he has only 3 hundreds and that too against Bangaldesh and Zimbabwe .Raina should be replaced by Yuvraj .Zaheer should be part of Indian bowling unit for sure . Bhajji should also be there as he is a much better fielder than the lethargic Ashwin and has a good bowling record against the South Africa.Aswhin might have taken 87 wickets in 15 test matches , but has hardly taken a wicket out of these 87 on bouncy pitches in South Africa , England and Australia .
Zak & yuvi (Sixer Boy)........both of u deserve the place in INDIAN team ..........do hard & come back......we love to see u on d field soon.....& best of luck..........

Sad people want Zak and Yuvi back despite India doing well without both who are past their prime. Why look back? Both in France for fun nothing else. We have enough gyms here to get fit. If both come back fielding standards will go down drastically. Why not get back Madan Lal ? He too helped India win a World Cup? Any takers?
Yuvi should be in Indian team, he's way better than DK.. Jadeja is an asset and hopefully continue to do well.. But, Zaheer should counting his days now.. his best days are behind him now.
