Count me in, if there is a team left.

He is what? 32-33. With 4 more years till next world cup, no point bringing him back when openers are pretty much settled. And incase of an injury or loss of form Rahane can always step up to the role. Gambhir if he can sort his technical issues would be a great value to our test team which is...

Butthurt? I just stated a fact that Pakistan with just 1 series win in last 3 years aren't doing any better.

Pakistan have won what? IIRC just the Aus series in last 3 years. Which India did as well, apart from that they've drawn all their 'home' series. Not to forget, they did draw a series vs Zimbabwe. The only top 3 team they toured during the period (SA) they got blanked 3-0. So how exactly is...

He's the reason Dhawan is playing so freely and confidently. He's holding one end. India have a good start but it could well become 280-4 if we have a mad hour. Unless we reach 400+, they should play sensibly and once they reach around 450 or more, they can throw their bats at everything.

On paper it has to be an easy win for India but I just have that feeling that the streak might end this time. A lot of factors are going against us this time.

After the disappointment that was his autobiography. I don't expect him to be a good analyst. Simply because he can't call it as it is. The Diplomat that Dravid was, still gives a good insight in his analysis. Lets see if he proves me wrong.

Isn't that the point of this tri-series? To give him some game time ahead of the World cup. However I think unless Jadeja gets back into the XI. Our lower order wont have the muscle. Ashwin at best can rotate strike, so can Bhuvy. Its only Jadeja who can play that game changing role. Shami and...

^New bowling line up? Please do mention a few who you think deserve a shot instead of these bowlers. If you go by Ranji stats, players like Vinay Kumar, Joginder Sharma average <25 in domestic circuit. Truth is, this is the best set of bowlers we have. They just need proper guidance. I just...

I don't think sledging back is wrong and Kohli should do it but he often gets carried away. The way he spoke in PC about it seemed like he took it personally and that can sometimes cloud your judgement on field.

Indian players don't know the art of sledging. They take it too personally imo.

Hoggard?

Lee?

is it Varun Chopra?

Is it the shirt-waving gesture? :p

Tried my hand at Steyn.

What is this "don't deserve" business. The format is same for every team. If teams fail to click in crunch games despite being favourites then they clearly don't deserve it. Anyhow both unexpected teams clashing it out at Semis. A slight advantage for India is they'll be playing the Semi's and...

Pretty tough to finalize the XI but yeah this is what I came up with. Chris Gayle Mat Hayden Kevin Pietersen Yuvraj Singh AB Devilliers Mike Hussey Shahid Afridi Malinga Gul Muralitharan Morkel

Umar Akmal just played 44 balls despite coming in at 20th over? Didn't stop him from causing mayhem for RCB though.
