Now India on the brink of exit from the world wup. A good number of players are injured. The kind of start which Sehwag usually providesis missing in the last two matches and early wickets without good score on board really puts India on backfoot. And it become very difficult to recover from their .opponents are planning according to individuals.And now the results is known to every body. Yours opinion is appreciated.

Now that India has lost, I think it would have been better if the players were given ample time to rejuvenate after IPL matches...

yes..see the news channels now...all they are doing is ranting how Dhoni did not excel...even his statement is seen as an 'excuse' for losing...i mean, come on, they are humans too..not machines...

well, definitely India will feel for it. Murali Vijay is small boy when compared to Sehwag. Several bowlers scared to bowl for sehwag. He is such an arrogant player. even though he doesn't got so many runs in IPL, every team looks for only sehwag wicket at beginning. Because if stands for 6-7 overs then there will be start of rain flow of runs from him. Even the Indian cricket selectors know about it. Because of politics, sehwag lost in team and so India lost the cup in ICCT20. Very poor selection.

Sehwag is not in the team but that is bacause he is injured. He has not lost his position in team . During IPL he picked up injuries and in many matches he was out of delhi team. I agree with you, the team for T20 is not good enough

He is very much needed in the team right now, the start he can give is very crucial which the current team players are failing to do.

Vijay needs time , For international matches players should be picked cleaverly. He is playing outside India and in big match, so no doubt there is too pressure on him, He is good for Indian pitches but not on fast pitches. I think he can do but before he needs to play in test and oneday outside India.

Undoubtedly.Sehwag is one of the best openers in the world of cricket.Murali vijay though talented is not a proper substitute for him.also gauti struggled the absence of Viru.He also could not play his normal attacking shots very well.

Yes that is a matter of concern, Murli vijay's exposure to international cricket is nothing , only he has played against quality foreign players in IPL, But the pressure against the international teams in international matches are different. In IPL he was playing in indian pitch , but this time he is playing in west indian pitches.

Viru can give the start which is very much needed, so this is not in the favour of team.

Indian Team deserves to be on the sidelines. From the very begining I said INDIA can not win the cup...simply cos they play for money and the players have earned a lot in IPL. No efforts - no gain...simple

This is spineless team and we should not hope for any win from them, Very true they prefer money instead of cricket,
