After the NZ tour we're playing the Asia cup.So what changes do u guys want in the team. It'll probably be a 15 man squad.This is my squad:- First XI:-Dhawan,Pujara,Kohli,Rahane,Dhoni,Kedar,Ashwin,Jadeja,BK,Shami,Aaron. Reserves:-Rohit,Rayudu,Rasool,Pandey. Raina,Mishra,Ishant should be dropped.Mishra should be replaced by a far better option in Rasool. Kedar should replace Raina & Binny won't be necessary here,if we pick a seam bowling all-rounder that should be Rishi as the 16th member in the squad not Binny.Ishant should be dropped once & for all unless he finds his mojo back by bowling a lot in the domestics & hopefully in the county circuit.

mostly agree.would add Rahul Sharma as leggie. need to add a pacer maybe Pankaj
In SC there will be 4 pacers.BK,Shami,Aaron will play,Ishant should be dropped & Pandey will stay in the squad.So no room for another seamer.

After the debacle in SA & NZ,there should be atleast 5 changes in the squad.Players like Kedhar Jadhav,Parveez Rasool,Rishi Dhawan,Jasprit Bumrah should be given a chance after their tremondous perfomance in the Ranji Trophy.

If selectors doesn't give Dhoni the captain some rest after the NZ series, the same 15 gonna play the Asia Cup. My 15 for the Asia Cup 1. Gautam Gambhir 2. Rahane 3. Pujara 4. Kohli - Captain 5. Kedar Jhadav 6. Sanju Samson 7. Rishi Dhawan 8. Ajaj Jadeja 9. Rasool 10.shami 11. Aaron 13. Umesh Yadav/Bhuvi 14. Rayudu 15 Yuvi

Rahane shouldn't be there and I would replace him with Raina. Rest of the team looks fine. In subcontinental conditions you need batsmen who can score quick runs and I can't see Rahane do that. Raina should be fine as he wouldn't have to worry about short pitched bowling in B'desh.

I have no idea on what basis should gambhir be recalled. His last 10 ranji scores 54, 26 ,10, 30, 49,32, 5 ,29, 153, 64 (1 big score against haryana and couple of 50+ scores) Last 10 ODI scores - 24,10,33,8,52,15,11,8,88,0

I am calling it right now' date='Sir will win the player of the tournament award.[/quote'] you may be correct. The conditions suit him for bowling and his last innings will give him confidence.

All reports indicate that he has not rectified his poking problems.

we need to pick whoever is realistically in the running for the WC. we cannot pick every single person who performs in ranji (that is the sad reality) and we cannot drop every single person who fails in 2-3 international games. We need to have consistency in our selection and have all our players be in good shape before 2015.

The XI we picked in last ODI bar Raina (Rayudu should be his replacement). And Pujara should be picked as a backup for either Rohit/Dhawan if they continue to bat poorly.
