The pitches at most venues for the World Cup will be dry in Australia by the end of the summer.

Still going to offer bounce + grounds will be bigger.

Rohit Sharma 264.He will continuously give poor starts in Australia and put pressure on Dhawan to score. Expect 10 overs 30 runs in australia and 100/4 because of Mr. Roshits poor scoring.

10 overs 30 0 wicket will be a very good start in Australia.

not when we will be chasing 300

Even then. Key to any chase is not lose early wickets. Cricket is all about last 30 overs these days. If you have wickets, you can score anything.

30-0 is atrocious in todays ODI even in Aus (unless unlikely GREEN or spitting pitch/cloud) need 45-0 or better 55-1 30-0 is 1987 style

Nohit will tuk-tuk to 8 (36) or 16 (50) in Aus and get out after killing momentum.

We have 2 new balls now. I will rather like to not lose a wicket in first 10 overs, does not matter whoever opens.

One intl outing and already ruled out ..... it's his first intl outing and may be he was nervous....give him some time....

Need to make most of the chances you get.. All he had to do was the sensible thing - rotate strike to Kohli. Instead he cornered most of the strike and only added to scoreboard pressure. He's 30, not a spring chicken anymore and he needs to understand int cricket is about handling pressure. He showed he's not yet there.

It was not like he was stuck. He did not really waste deliveries. He was trying to score too and did hit a few boundaries himself. He just had to relax and be patient. He looked in a bit of a hurry, trying to score too quickly that can happen when you come to bat in such a situation that too your first game.
