It is really good that Rahane has been consistent in Australian series currently. But he should be given a specific slot though he is flexible in his approach. He is unassuming character and gives his best in fielding also
SA must have been taken by surprise Rahanes hits. All six footers n built and here's Rahane thin n under nourished, took the SA by their horn. Great n keep focussed.
I feel you have to blame the format. What is the use of the league matches,if 4 teams are going to qualify. It might happen that the top team might have one bad day in the quarters, and they might get knocked out of the tournament,which is unfair. My view is, Only 2 teams should qualify from each group,and knockout should start from semi-finals.

1. they are high pressure(read eliminator) matches 2. India is yet to win by chasing high score. 3. middle order dhoni,raina,jadeja out of touch 4.bowlers may have off day like in finals of 2003 WC finals. 5. sometime defeat teaches you more, win hides lot. so batsmen, bowler peak from QF onwards.
