India one-day squad: Sachin Tendulkar, Gautam Gambhir, Rahul Dravid, Suresh Raina, Yuvraj Singh, MS Dhoni (capt/wk), Yusuf Pathan, Harbhajan Singh, Praveen Kumar, Ishant Sharma, Ashish Nehra, RP Singh, Amit Mishra, Dinesh Karthik, and Abhishek Nayar
Couple of Questions:
Why was Ojha Dropped? He didn't do anything wrong as a far as I am concern and seems promising
I really hope they give Nehra some matches. Knowning Dhoni, he should probably make him sit the whole series. Any news on Balaji where is he?
Rohit Sharma was also dropped. I felt he should have been given one more series before deciding what to do with him.
Looking at this, i think Kohli should have been selected over Abhishek (no offense to abhishek but i just think Kohli deserves it more) Also, Tyagi should have replaced praveen. This is not austrilia, praveen going to get murdered on Sri Lanka pitches and also if I sharma flops this series he should be droped. Sharma only has one good tour since his debut and thats the australia tour.
Gives all of this:
My 11 would be
1. Gambhir
2. Tendulkar
3. Dravid
4. Raina
5. Yuvraj
6. Dhoni
7. Yusif
8. Harbajan
9. RP
10. Nehra
11. I Sharma
FYI: Indian spinners are no match for Sri Lankan Spinners. Dhoni will have to use his part-timers effectively.
If Raina gets out to a bouncer they should send him back. Good to see Dravid play. I wonder if Barinath will ever get a chance to play for India.
