WTF is Chawla doing there? I don't even see a CSK or TN connection there. Wonder what the ICF theory is behind his selection. :winky:

lucky mascot, 2007 T20 WC 2011 CWC 2012 T20 WC??

He's cheeka's favorite mascot. Selected him for WC even when he hadn't played cricket for long time. :giggle:

Don't care a lot about tontee tontee nowadays as it is looking more and more like tukka cricket. Won't be surprised if we do well this time though as we have quite a lot of big hitters including UV, Raina, Dhoni. Irfan coming into the team will also help the all rounder balance. My advice - play with as many batsman and all rounders as possible. I would say don't pick Zak or any specialist pacer but opt for all rounders who can bat well too. Make the targets too big if luck is with us and make sure opposition cannot reach it easily. Why is Yadav not in our squad. I think he is our best bet in T20 in case of pacers.

Sourav Ganguly bets on India to win World T20

Sourav Ganguly on Tuesday said India have the firepower to win the World T20 in Sri Lanka next month and termed the West Indies as the dark horses. "When you have players like Virat Kohli, Gautam Gambhir, Virender Sehwag, M.S. Dhoni and Yuvraj Singh it is very difficult to count India out. There is a lot of firepower there," said the former India captain at a promotional event organised by World T20 broadcaster ESPN Star Sports.

He named 4 players and none of them are genuine bowlers in that list.

Ganguly sithiya gaya hai. IMO it's expecting way too much from Yuvi to do well straight away after coming back from a serious health ailment and playing internationally in ages. Plus one only need to look at our bowlers to know why we don't have much of a chance In 2007, likes of RP Singh, Sreesanth & Irfan won us the tourney as they took wkts consistently and defended low totals. Unless we do so this time round we don't stand a chance.

To be fair , no where does he say India will surely win ... Says , Can count India out with the kind of batting we have ..which is true . Its T20's btw , would be stupid to bet on any team .

[jusarrived]

In SL' date=' bowlers will play bigger role than batsmen imo.[/quote'] We have done well in SL lately . The pitches suits us , better than the likes of SA , Eng or Aus .

[GautiMaan]

We have as good a chance as anyone else coz 1.No panautis like Jaddu or Vinay(sorry JPK) in the squad 2.No pacy tracks to be bounced out 3.The spinners might be able to take advantage of the conditions 4.The obvious batting firepower

[Lord]

batting isnt the real reason.its Dinda:cantstop:

[riya]

There is a chance since there are no bull crap league matches prior to the event.
