the last time pak won in aus in 1992, they had one of the mesmerising bowling line ups. a lethal fast bowler akram, a gentle medium and an effective bowler imran who could bat, a wily wicket taking leggie mushtaq. around these three, there were 2 other bowlers who could play the side roles effectively. more over, their middle order was too good in the form of javed and inzy. their batting never clicked big until the semifinals against nz where it suddenly exploded. currently, any team with such a combo can aim to annexe the wc 2015. if india could go with the below 11, they could stand a very good chance.

Talk less, stop taking breath, don't blink when HOLDING appears, otherwise, you will have 100% chance to receive a great blow of his express delivery on your head. Even, we the spectators who were present on the ground while Great little master Gavaskar came to face opening spell of Michel Holding could not breath properly. What we saw after that delivery? We found that the bat of little master had fallen down as soon as he met bouncer of Holding. We still remember used to shout "GAVASKAR SEE HOLDING IS COMING". This is not to malign Little master Gavaskar, but, want to present generation to feel the horror of fastest bowling of Holding sahab. SO WHEN THE SAID GREAT HOLDING SAHAB SAYS THAT CAPTAINCY IS NOT REQUIRED FOR SHORT GAMES LIKE ONE DAY, 20:20, THERE SHOULD NOT BE ANY DOUBT. MOREOVER, WHEN HE COMMENTS THAT DHONI IS INCAPABLE OF LEADING A TEST TEAM WHERE CAPTAIN HAS A GREAT ROLE, PROVES THAT HIS IS INCOMPETENT. INDIA HAS PRODUCED MANY GREAT CAPTAINS WHO REALLY LEADS FROM THE FRONT. AND SOURAV GANGULY REMAINS THE BEST INDIAN CAPTAIN AMONG THOSE GREATS. Under the circumstances, dhoni should retire as he is neither a wicket keeper and nor a batsman leading from the front. Moreover, in tests he can not score big as his technique is faulty.
No issues with them they are good players. Problem with p[eople like ashwin, mohit Vijay etc...and Rohit and RAYDDUS, these guys are only for IPL AND 20-20.. tHEY CANT WIN ANYTHING BIG, SO WE NEED TO FOCUS ON MATCHWINNERS and unfortunately no stars around. We have to fall back on Yuvraj and Gambhir as i dont think selectors wil take Sehwag to world cup. Though he is better than lot of youngsters, they will not risk him.
Selector has to follow Srinivasan and has to select at least 6 players from CSK, Idots like Jadeja, Mohith, will select without any performance in domestic and international cricket

which is fixed and controlled by dee ganngg. why the team failed miserably in eng/nz/aus/sa ? dobi is the front of dee gaangg,that's why he is still continuing as captain after so man losses ?
Mr. Holding...U will be now out from commentry box as speaking againest Dhoni or pointing out his limitations is considered as crime by BCCI...people like Gavaskar and Shastri never do this...they just keep on singing Dhoni songs and earn money...u feel dhoni is not innovative but fact is if you take out contributions of Sachin , Laxman , Sehwag , Bhajji , Zaheer his captaincy standered is worst than Azhar but due to having such players in team his statistical record is one the best...u can imagine how wise a person could be if he backs Ashwin and Ishant and removes chaplions like Harbhajan or Sehwag...he backs idiots like Dhawan , Mohit Sharma...
give some respect to other players and captain who have acheived greater than this fakecaptain in testslol.there have been greater captain and players in tests and other formats who are far better than this fakecaptain.try respect other players who have played in the bygone era other than this faketestcaptainlol.this fakecaptain is deft nt in the ranks of other players in test format as a captain.cricketing style and approach has changed over the years.just bcos success ratio is more doesnt make him gud captainlol.loserif u undertand cricekting trend all these years,this team is nowhere compared to the gr8's whther aus,windies or india.blablaloserlol
