take into action......
by Aravind sai on Oct 14, 2007 12:55 PM

My team for inidan innings:

Sourav
Uthappa
harbajan/ Zaheer
Dhoni
yuvraj
Sachin
dravid
pathan
M.karthik
Zaheer
Sreesanth

play aggressive cricket in during power plays....
make atleast 140 runs in first 20 overs .. evne at cost of 2 wickets

The pitch seems to support slower and spinnners atmost....
so there is a chance that M.clarke and B.Hogg can create problems for inidan batting.....
so get prepared for that even before they come into bowling.....i.e., by scoring 140 in first 20 overs.
and play these two bowlers with caution....
even though india can't get good no. of runs from these two bowlers.....dont loose wicket for these two....
initial 140 runs ion first 20 overs will defnitely help inidan batting here.... avoiding dropping of runrate to impossible rate.....
dont losse any wicket until 40 overs( atmost 1 wicket is fine)

after 40 overs its fine even india can make around 240 runs...with loss of 3 wickets.....
if harbajan/Zaheer comes in one down position i think he can utilize power plays to small extent....
ieven with harbajan/ Zaheer at no.3 .....loss of 4 wickets will not matter much....

now try to play 20-20 crikcet in last 10 overs....with a target of around 78 runs in 60 balls..... I dont think this shud b prob.
