My team will b like dis (Atanu from Muscut): 1. robin 2. sehwag 3. sourav 4. sachin 5. dravid 6. yuvraj 7. dhoni (wk) 8. Irfan 9. harbhajan 9. zaheer 10. munaf
In my view all India's 15 players are very well set it is just choice of according to the conditions on that perticular day & pitch, I dont think there is much diffrence in picking the right combination, either u pick Kumble or Karbhajan, or u pick either Uthappa or Sehwag, kartik and Agarkar or Sreesant in the final elevan, But one player is can make the diffrence is Irfan Pathan, I must say that he should be in playing 11.
I AM S.P. CHAUDHARY FROM FARIDABAD, HARYANA. MY BEST TEAM FOR THIS ONE DAY IS AS PER FOLLOWING : 1. RAHUL DRAVID, 2. SACHIN TENDULUKAR, 3. SAURAV GANGULY, 4. VIRENDER SEHWAG, 5. YUVRAJ SINGH, 6. M.S. DHONI, 7. ROBIN UTHAPPA, 8. HARBHAJAN SINGH, 9.AJIT AGARKAR, 10. ZAHEER KHAN, 11.MUNAF PATEL
Hi, My team is almost similar to yours! However, i'm not sure of playing 4 seamers on tracks that are giving assistance to spinners.
Even New Zealand played 2 spinners, and Sehwag who should definitely be avoided, being not there as the fifth bowler, you have only 1 slow bowler as Yuvaraj and Sachin can at the most share 5 overs between them. They both are very very inconsistent.
However, if Irfan Pathan is asked to bowl off-cutters instead of bowling a straight seam, it might solve the purpose. All teams top bowlers are bowling 4 out of 6 balls as the slower ones in the last 10 overs.
Pathan and Sehwag should both play in Indian team throughout the world cup...both are good allrounders and allrounders give depth to India's batting line up thats why I always say try to include allrounders instead of only batter or bowler..
One more thing I would like to add here that Sehwag dont have the versatility of shots which Sachin have so there is no use of Sehwag at no. 5 or 6...we already saw that in recent series that Sehwag was not comfertable there at no. 5..
India should use Dhoni at No. 3 position as a surprise tactic not only in this match but in some matches of super 8 also or they may send Irfan at no. 3 provided if they include him in final 11, which Dravid should do..
Mantra to win todays match and world cup..
Use Pathan, sehwag and Dhoni as a surprise weapons...India will definitely reach the semis and after that ANY TEAM CAN WIN THE CUP..!

Mate Uthappa and Sehawag both are unpredictable players but Sehawag can bowl good 10 overs which Uttappa can't so istead of Uthappa India should include Sehwag...
Remember more allrounders more probability to win.!!
