Answer 5

15 men squad-
1. sachin
2. sehwag
3. dravid
4. harbhajan
5. yuvraj
6. gautam gambhir
7. munaf
8. dhoni
9. kaif
10. pathan
11. Ramesh Powar
12. raina
13. rp singh
14. dinesh mongia
15. sreesanth

batting line up- (normal conditions)
1. sehwag
2. sachin
3. dravid
4. yuvraj (if unfit then gautam gambhir)
5. irfan pathan
6. dhoni
7. raina
8. ramesh powar
9. harbhajan
10. sreesanth
11. munaf

batting line up- (good start- i mean carrying a good run rate)
1. sehwag
2. sachin
3. yuvraj (if unfit gambhir)
4. pathan
5. dhoni
6. dravid
7. raina
8. powar
9. harbhajan
10. sreesanth
11. munaf

batting line up (early loss of wicket)
1. sehwag
2. sachin
3. dravid
4. raina
5. yuvraj (if unfir gambhir)
6. pathan
7. powar
8. dhoni
9. harbhajan
10. sreesanth
11. munaf

some tricks-
1. spin based attack-if you play 2 pacer n 1 spinner then use yuvraj, sachin, sehwag, raina as your spiners. use each and every player at their maximum.

2. if you send sehwag to open the innings you can't afford to send pathan up in the order. even though he can bat very well.

3. what ever the condition is dravid has to bat on no. 3 i.e he will come to bat after the first wicket falls. he has to play a knock of 40 and up. not very slow but he has to keep the fielders busy. no.3 position is a very important position in cricket. that batsman plays a vital role as australia's ponting or martin does.

4. you can also send raina to bat when the powerplay is on. u will notice that raina is a bit weak on the leg side and has problems playing short balls. so when the powerplay is on and the fielders are close he will be able to take the aerial shots. when the field is spread raina is not effective. maybe lack of confidence or experience.

5. try to play two consistent pacers and don't change your bowlers regularly.

this will help india beat any team in this world if the players perform.

Answer 6

Sachin Tendulkar
Virender Sehwag
Dinesh Kaarthik
Dinesh Mongia
Yuvraj Singh
Saurav Ganguly
Anil Kumle
Irfan Pathan
Laxmipathy Balaji
Harbajan Singh
Munaf Patel
Now you may think that it may not be a good team. No Dhoni, no Dravid. But I can say Dinesh Kaarthik is better than Dhoni. And Ganguly is better than Dravid in all ways. The first time Dravid came, he was very nice. I thought he might be good captain than Ganguly. But now a days he is becomming so bad.Now I hope you get some point about team.

Answer 7

I think we might loose the series in SA with the current indian team and coach. No individual performances can win the macthes and team spirit is lacking under Rahul captaincy.
I feel the follwing order and players make best indian team which can be valid for world cup also,
1)Saurav (C)
2)Sachin / Sehwag
3)Laxman
4)Dravid (VC)
5)Dhoni
6)Kaif / Yuvraj
7)Agarkar / Pathan
8)Harbajan / Kumble
9)Balaji
10)Zaheer
11)Munaf patel

Answer 8

I choose my team as batting position also :-

1) V Sehwag

2) S Tendulkar

3) MS Dhoni

4) R Dravid

5) M Kaif ( If Yuvraj Singh injured)

6) S Ganguly

7) D Mongia

8) I Pathan

9) Harbhajan Singh

10) S Sreesanth

11) Munaf Patel

Ganguly is very useful at lower order because in the last overs he can score runs fast... . He is able for big scores only need our encouragement.

He is one of my favourite players.

Answer 9

According to me opener are Sachin Gangully Shewag Dravid (C)Yuvraj, Dhoni(W) pathan, Kumble , Shreeshant, Zaheer Munaf (Sub Kaif, Raina, Harbajan R P Singh phativ patel(W)) Dont pressuring them if u want 100% output from them
