[fineleg]

No Abhimanyu Mithu in probables (perhaps he is more "longer version" than ODI) No Sudeep Tyagi or Dinda or RP Singh either. Vinay Kumar? Why?

[IKnowU]

Vinay Kumar? Why?

Are you serious? He is a role model for our phasst trundlers.

Parthiv patel should be played as a reg batsman like DK did few times Parthiv is an awesome batsmen and deserves more chances

[girishk14]

The guy who is playing a test match against the No .2 team right now (udankt), doesnt even feature in the WC probables. Whats happening to the selectors?

[Sooda]

He might well have secured his spot as reserve keeper. No surprises really in there and barring injury the squad mostly picks itself... ST, VS, GG, YS, MSD, SR, YP, HS, RA, ZK, PK AN, MP, PP, RS

Whats the deadline to submit the final 15 (or 16??)

Sometime around Mid Jan

[DomainK]

Okay. It's our effin backyard. lets kick some asses and get the WC back home.

[hari504504]

Australia has announced a well-balanced squad too... please no more Aussie champs, I hope they don't even reach the semis to be safe (4 times in a row would be .....)

[dhillon28]

Starting xi should be: sachin sehwag gambhir yuvraj dhoni raina yousuf bhaji praveen zaheer ashwin/munaf/ohja depeding on the surface but i def think there is a role for two specialist spinners esp economical ones

[Andy]

Am amazed not to find Dinda in the list, among all the trundlers we have he is perhaps the best at death.

[kabira]

We need to find place for Ashwin in the XI inspite of bhajji... Ashwin is unknown quality to the world and he could become handy wicket taking option

[Sachin=GOD]

Ashwin might be good and an unknown quality but I'm very sure that we'll go with Bhajji because he's far more experienced and in a tournament like the World Cup (which is happening in India) I don't see the team management going with a newcomer in place of an experienced bowler and on subcontinent pitches Bhajji is quite effective.

I am too distressed to even think about this non story.
