Jadeja is unfit,so Axar will definitely play

Kohli, Raina, Dhoni are somewhat reliable. Rest of the,three will blow hot and coldl. Jaddu, ash are not reliable either. Our batting depends on three essentially. Compared to viru, gauti, Kohli, sachin, yuvraj, dhoni, Raina this is not such a dangerous line up.

Add Rahane to the mix..

Don't know which 'R's are going to play. Rahane, Rohit, Rayudu two out of three plus Dhawan.

try out everybody maybe for all be know Raina will be a good bet with the ball as well. In 2011 who knew Yuvi would be such a star performer with the ball. Try out Ash Axar and Binny.

Jadeja, Ashwin, Bhuvi, Shami and Yadav : 5 bowling options.

[vvvslaxman]

Jadeja' date=' Ashwin, Bhuvi, Shami and Yadav : 5 bowling options.[/quote'] Jadeja's current batting form is unknown. Ashwin is not that good in ODIs with bat. Last 3 can hold an end but not rake up quick runs . So essentially lt is possible we may not get much out of last 5. Even though lot of us consider as dangerous with bat, we are not as dangerous as we are projected to be.

Binny.best all rounder in the world cup

[bowl_out]

Axar is the dark horse... Somehow get the feeling he will do well with bat and ball... He is going to choke South Africa in the knockout match this time and get them out of the tournament Two of Jaddu/Axar/Ash + Three quicks will be the bowling combo... Binny will not play in Aus... Maybe at Perth... will play both matches in NZ

I would play Akshar Patel as the pitches should be slower by the time knockouts approach. We would have had Test series, odi tri-series, Big Bash, opening rounds of WC by the time knockouts approach. The pitches should have slowed down by then and should help spinners a bit by the time.
