2011 World Cup Pre-Event Discussion

^Are you being serious. That guy can't even get to over 120 KPH anymore. He can contain the opposition but that is a bit different from demolishing. Sri Lanka have got the youth to replace Vaas. They did well without him. They beat Australia in Australia with their young guns. Thats the way to go for them.
 
Don't worry, Vaas will have an Indian counterpart as well. I feel they will nominate Ajit Agarkar for the 30-man squad as well.
 
Tickets for all the Bangladesh matches are sold out, except Irl, Neth matches

Going around bowling 120kph on flat tracks, i doubt if he can even contain the batsman. he will be smashed all over the park. And if selectors were not going to select him in 15 he wouldn't have been in 30 probables.
 
Might as well humor them for all their services to SL cricket. Doubt they will make the 15 man cut.

GOD, I will FREAK OUT if Agarkar is named in even our top 50. We are not that desperate fast bowling wise.

Zaheer
Sreesanth
Praveen
Nehra
Ishant

Irfan
Mithun
RP Singh


Is more than enough. After a certain point they are all as bad as the other and are going to go for 6RPO no matter who the bowler is :p

lol that's a dumb thing to say. So you are saying they wouldn't have picked any of those 30 players unless they were going to keep them for final 15? Then you are back to number 30 again.

No way that will happen. I dont see Ajit Agarkar anywhere near the team in the future. Our fast bowling attack will be from thr following: Zaheer, Praveen, Nehra, Ishant, Sreesanth and Munaf
 
Everybody is too bad in Indian attack not just Munaf.
Even Zak wasn't impressive in 2010 in ODIS.
 
Agarkar! No chance.

Probably Zaheer, Nehra, Praveen Kumar and Ishant/Munaf will be selected.

There is a difference here, vaas has been one of the great bowlers SL have ever produced, to choose him in 30 and not in main squad would be like an insult, same goes for Jayasuriya.
