brendan07 Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 I thought of taking Warner for Gayle. But can be more destructive then anyone else on his day. If I had to make a RELIABLE XI then I would have included Amla' date=' Willamson etc. but I have included Match winners. All these 11 can turn the match on there day.[/quote'] Amla for one would be the easiest selection. How isn't AMLA more destructive anyway! He has a SR of over 100 you know. Made a ton, has made other scores in and around 50. Warner has had a poor WC. I'm sorry I just don't rate a player's WC if all they do is smack the minnows.

BlueBee Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 I don't get this how Kohli, Smith, Warner, Gayle get into this XI

I don't think so.

I don't think so. Hello...this is a TEAM OF THE WC. Otherwise Smith is first picked despite having an awful WC. Being a 'slogger' doesn't mean more destructive. A bloke batting for 20 overs is a heck of a lot more destructive for a team bowling that one who slogs a six, then proceeds to get out. I repeat in THIS WORLD Cup the two strike rates are similar basically. Gayle averages about 6 against good sides!
zep1706 Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 Because he has to save Pakistan batting every match. His approach is not good enough to get him in the team of the tournament. When you come in at 96-2 in 16 overs and take 35 balls to score 10 you won't be in my team.

bulbul Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 Because he has to save Pakistan batting every match. But other teams doesn't needs saving,especially best team :giggle: Misbah needs if you form a best out of worst team.

Sid Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 Because he has to save Pakistan batting every match. As someone rightly said andhon mein kaana raja .You know what Rayudu does exactly what your batting legend Misbah specializes in ,come early block block block and block. Unless there is a spinner on ,Misbah struggles to take singles or clear the 30 yards circle.His innings against SA was pathetic,thankfully SA were there play even more pathetic cricket.

zep1706 Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 It is interesting that despite doing so well India don't have a stand out performer so far. I guess it's been a real team effort.
Sid Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 It is interesting that despite doing so well India don't have a stand out performer so far. I guess it's been a real team effort. True.I was thinking the same.Its been an utter team effort,each one of them have done their bit so far.Heartening to see.
P.B. Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 1.Shikhar Dhawan 2.Brendon McCullcum 3.Kumar Sanggakara (wk) 4.Misbah Ul Haq 5.AB De Villiers 6.Sean Williams 7.Glenn Maxwell 8.Mitchell Starc 9.Wahab Riaz 10.Trent Boult 11.Mohammad Shami
