Hi Folks,
I wish to thank you all very much for reading my posts and appreciating them.
Henceforth,i would be writing from my other web site which is better laid out, more informative and has many additional links,Kindly note.... www.kukikol.com
Recently, i have published a post expressing my desire that India should win the world cup and that would be the most befitting gift to Tendulkar since, he has never been part of the world cup winning squad.
Please keep reading my posts regularly.
Best Wishes

INDIAN CRICKET TEAM FOR ICC WORLD CUP 2011
ICC World Cup 2011 starts on 19 Feb. 14 teams will play a total of 49 matches (including semi finals and finals ) in 43 days in India, Sri lanka and Bangladesh.
Have the selectors made the correct selection of 15 member Indian contingent? Well, going by the current form of players, the ongoing Ranji Trophy matches, abundance of talent available in the country and the lessons drawn from previous World Cup Matches, I would have picked up a different team.
Rather than going in for specialists (except fast bowlers), it is rather advisable to select all rounders because the chances of the tail enders collapsing are eliminated if all 11 players are good batsmen. Even in the recently concluded ODI series against S. Africa, as many as eight bowlers were used in almost every match.This included regular batsmen also bowling quite a few overs.
In an attempt to score runs, batsmen will make mistakes and any bowler who bowls reasonably well will be rewarded. A top class fast bowler who cannot contribute regularly with the bat would not be the best choice. That is where ALL ROUNDERS will chip in.
That raises a question. Who all should have been included in the 15 member Indian squad? Keep thinking and await my next post.
