This is the worst Indian team to play WC. 2001 team was slightly better than this and other teams did not have good bowling. Good news is Pak has also one of their worst teams. It will be fun to watch who is going to lose than who is going to win. Rohit has too many godfathers. He played 100 matches without much contribution. Typical Mumbai cricket board quota. Second worst is Aswin, a Srinivasan and Dhoni favorite. Iw ill prefer Raina who plays from heart and mind for the team even though of his skills.

now we know why Raina is a failure in the current series..he plays from the heart...he should use his head instead of heart for scoring runs..
Any ways we are not aiming to retain the World cup.. Dhoni wanted to retire after W/c so Not interested Virat is hoping to get the cap so planing for fail Rohit has hit one century so he can not be removed for next 10 matches No other bowlers so Ashwin Shami etc will remain WHAT ELSE WE WANT ??

like that some one should guide umesh yadav .he is faster & good bowler just he needs some guidance on bowling like how to bowl on lenght,constant etc.our bowler are fast loose their lenght after doing good few games.
Let him bat at 3 and he will score big. Just swap him with Rayadu for now at the top . I think he needs 1 good knock. Since Rohit is injured, I would go with for the match against England

Rayudu should be told that he is playing 50 over cricket not 20-20. He takes too much risk while batting and also in a great hurry to compile runs which is preventing him to score big.

Oh yeah otherwise he would have made 50s & 100s every match. He just dont know that it is 50 over match :)
is BCCI looking to exit WC early so that players get adequate rest for IPL. Are Vijay, Robin Utthappa, Yuvi, etc are rested from WC to be fresh in IPL?

You may add Sehwag, Gambhir and Harbhajan also. Don't you know there will be only 15 members in the team for WC? All those whom you and I named are thirty plus in age and cannot run on the field. Limited over cricket needs fantastic fielders in the side not old ones
This world cup will be the same story like 2007 world cup. Every one has become big players, big egos etc., without output. BCCI officials not worried about the game not worried in finding new talent..So this team will fail. Cricket lovers please makeup your mind. Bye.
India should think to replace Dhawan who is out of form, in world cup we can not wait for a form of any batsman. In spite of experiment we should try the tested person. My opinion the Murli Vijay had proved himself in test series and T20. He was among best performers along with Virat Kohli. We should give him chance.

We should replace the coach Duncan Fletcher who is not doing anything about poor technique of batsmen or bowlers. We cannot be dropping one promising player after another. But we can get rid of an incompetent and losing coach withot any compunction.
