My choice the 11 would be 1.Rahul Dravid 2.Sourav Ganguly 3.Sachin Tendulkar 4.Robin Uthappa 5.Yuvaraj singh 6.Mahendra singh dhoni 7.Harbhajan singh 8.Irfan pathan 9.Zaheer Khan 10.Munaf Patel 11.Ramesh powar next four...... 12.Suresh Raina 13.Dinesh karthik 14.Goutham Gambhir 15.Mohd. Kaif justification for the selection--- opening - Robin uthappa & Sachin Tendulkar Robin utthappa & sourav ganguly Robin uthappa & gautham gambhir -- Preferred Gautham Gambir & Sourav ganguly sourav ganguly & Sachin Tendulkar The mix of right & left combination The aggression of young minds The mix of youth and experienced It is preferred that Dravid to come in the first down. He will know the responsibility and his ability to stay on the grease and rotate the strike.Even here is quick break in the opening partnership, he will patch the break. Tendulkar to be as the second down to consolidate the innings Sourav to be the third down, as he is an expert of tackling the spin bowling, and he is havingthe ability to change gears to accelerate the scoring Yuvaraj to further accelerate the scoring and give finishing touch. Mahendra singh dhoni - handy in final overs to jetify the scoring rate and finish Pathan as an allrounder comes in handy in the final overs of his big hitting capability and also based on the situation he can be sent as a pinch hitter to upset the bowlers rhythm Munaf patel is justified b'cos of his line ad length and the ability to control the scoring rate. Zaheer as an experienced and also the spearhead ofthe fast attack.his accuracy and his ability in the final overs to finish off Bhajji - break partnerships and control the run rate ramesh powar - break partnership how do you feel about the selection-- put ur views and comments and also select the team of your choice and justify the same

dude !! u dont have sehwag in your team ?? surprising !! i think the playing 11 would essentially be the team that played the last one day against Sri Lanka. But if i had it my may then the 11 would be : Virender Sehwag Sourav Ganguly Sachin Tendulkar Rahul Dravid Yuvraj Singh Karthik Mahender Singh Dhoni Irfan Pathan Harbhajan Singh Zaheer Khan Munaf Patel Yeah ... kaif was much better option than karthik and it sad that robin has to sit out. But if irfan pathan doesnt play upto the expectation then he will be replaced by Sreesanth.

Well, it is hard for me to pick because I wasn't following up on the games and don't really know who is good to win the world cup. But, whoever gets to I wish them all the luck in the world.
