my India 15 for the meGa eVent

sO tHe worLd cUP is fast approaching here is my 15 for the Indian team....

Batsmen:
Uthappa
Ganguly
Sehwag
Tendulkar
Dravid
Yuvraj
Dhoni
Kaif/Kaarthick

Bowlers:
Anil Kumble
Harbhajan Singh
Zaheer Khan
Ajith Agarkar
Irfan Pathan
Munaf Patel
Ranadeb Bose/Sreesanth

I would still consider Kaif ahead of Kaarthick just because he has the experience in the international arena and he'z a great fielder. ofcourse he'z handy with the bat and he has a decent track record on the west indies soil as well! There is no need for a second wicket keeper like Kaarthick in the team since Dravid and Uthappa can act as the back-up keepers if need be! If Kaarthick is considered solely as a batsman, I am sure even Gambhir and Raina would come into contention! But I would still consider Kaif ahead of Kaarthick for the carribean islands!

On the bowling front, Sreesanth doesn't figure in my list, since he is very wayward! Sure he does have raw pace but still needs some supervision, guidance and maturity to get in to the ODI team. It is very important to be economical while bowling in the ODIs. I picked the Ranji star Ranadeb Bose, a surprise inclusion (who is not even listed in the 30 probables) into my 15. The reason being both Bose and Uthappa are in their best ranji form and this would definitely give good results @ the international level. If Munaf is match fit, which can be confirmed only when he fields for 3hrs and bowls his full quota of 10 overs in the Sri lanka series, should he be considered for the carribean islands!

anyWay...it'z only 2 more days before the final 15 is announced for the carribean islands!
