This is the best team even for upcoming series.Is Ms Dhoni place may be replaced or not.But on other hand he is most senior guy who manages the field and in crucial circumstance his experiences are fruitful, so let him decide when he will retire.The only concer in the team India is Ajikya Rahane which may be replaced with either Manish Pandey or Shreyas Iyyer. Why not Mr. Ravi Shastri try for one explosive guy from Under 19 World Cup team. may be he would be future Virat
We are lucky that SA doesnt play spin well, otherwise, we could even have lost 2 more matches with modest targets. I dont understand why still continuing with Rahane and Iyer when IPL has shown loads of talents in players like Sanju Samson, Rishab Pant, Krunal Pandya, etc.

Sanju Samson and Rishab Pant were given chances multiple times. They failed miserably. Krunal is worth trying.

Sanju Samson Rishabh Pant together has played 3 T20s , 0 One dayers , 0 Tests ... Is that the definition for multiple chances .

Actually it was a surprise that Shreyas Iyyer got selected after pathetic IPL season he had. His batting is not that exciting but what concerns is his chronic issue of catch dropping, I have seen him dropping many in IPL also, that is not a good sign.

I am in endorsement to only few of your suggestions. Truthfully Dhoni should be asked to participate in counties to improve his batting rhythm. Till them he should be out of the team. Parthiv or saha are the alternate choice.As parthiv can bat agressively without fear.Ofcourse Ashwin and jadeja,should be tried alternatively to chahal and kuldeep yadav.

@Sridhar Belur:: I would have liked MSD to retire but Parthiv and Saha are not fit in ODIs. May be we can try Pant/Samson etc. on interim basis
