[Sid]

Just read on news channel,he will be the captain for the NZ series, Sehwag and Dhoni would be given rest for this series along with Raina

[Ranjha]

hmm thats alrite I guess..gambhir has been in decent form in odis I think?

[hari504504]

sounds just about right...till Kohli gets a few more matches under his belt..

why kohli to be a future captain? He gotta score hundreds and cement his place first.

hasnt played in ODI'S since ASIA CUP

[achilles]

Decent decision. He's pretty much the only senior player in the team in the subsequent squad who has also cemented his place. Virat is awesome, but he'll have to wait for atleast 2 years to flirt with captaincy.

yup..a few more matches and runs .. he is a proven winning captain (U-19).

And the same channel had yesterday said that Gambhir, Yuvraj and Raina have said no to leading the side given their bad form and that Dhoni has been asked to play the first 2 ODIs (Sehwag, Sachin, Bhajji to be rested for all 5 ODIs) after which Kohli will take over!!

obviously ' date='will be given the rest[/quote'] ok when will i again see him in blue jersey? :(( such a long wait :((

I wanna see wc performance to evaluate/revaluate our odi players

WC will be mostly on our highways.. won't evaluate any batsman or bowler based on the performances there alone... will look more towards how they perform abroad.. batsmen and bowlers..

Fantastic decision!

wc will be a good test of temperament and we will know who big match players are.....it will seperate men from boys.

I would keep Nehra in the team Vinay Kumar is a crap bowler

[CSK Fan]

obviously ' date='will be given the rest[/quote'] But then when will he get some ODI practise on sub continent wickets before the World cup? The next ODI series will be on South African soil
