Mohammed Kaif(Captain) Dinesh Karthik(wk) Zaheer Khan Ishant Patel Robin Uthappa Yuvraj Singh(VC) Suresh Raina Irfan Pathan Munaf Patel Gautham Gambhir Piyush Chawla Ravneet Ricky Abhishek Jhunjhunvala Ambatti Rayyudu MS Dhoni
Saurav, Dravid were not included becauce they've no realistic chance of playing in the 2011 WC
Sachin, Sehwag were not selected because their time is up, in fact they shouldnt even have made the trip to Windies for the 2007 version of the tournament.
By the way the best coach would be Tom Moody or Robin Singh
On why Kaif should be captain, he is the only Indian below 30 who has captained a world cup winning team, although its at the under-19 level in 1999. But hey thats were the future is. Gautham, Suresh Raina, Uthappa, Irfan and Dhoni have been miserable failures in the recent past, but who hasnt been one. When did Sehwag, Sachin, Dravid etc win / save us a match in the last 3-4 years.

Your team is good except for Kaif .. he has not yet proved himself at the international arena. And he has been given quite a number of chances to do that. I would make Yuvraj captain and Karthik VC.
