He would have changed our fortune...bring back kambli...who plays with heart for india...
 
Yuvraj is real match winner India has ever produced in Limited overs cricket..This is for sure... If one didn't accept this, then they don't know the game:loser:
 
Forget sehwag, What was goin through dhoni's mind? With overcast, seaming conditions, he should have considered irfan.. And he went with 2 spinners and you already got jadeja in the bag.. Man ! enough said.
 
Yuvraj is a good player - But he messed up earlier because of being a bit too arrogant (I see Kohli looking in the same direction), but has been a decent player in ODIs henceIrfan was rested to be played on spin-friendly pitches. Sehwag was rested, so that he can be retained in team for matches in India where he can continue to hit well, if he is played in Aussie , he will fail and would need to be dropped - They are already under pressure to drop people in Test team.

"We have good youngsters. [What is] important is, they have to play more one-dayers so they have experience when the World Cup comes. That's our aim. When the World Cup is there, they should have played at least 75-100 ODIs, so they are ready for the World Cup.""

And the middle order has already played

Kohli - 75 ODIs
Rohit - 73 ODIs
Raina - 136 ODIs
Dhoni - 197 ODIs
Jadeja - 49 ODIs

If at all, they should be playing Tiwary and a few others - Otherwise, this looks funny to me.

Eric: "SL going in without a specialist spinner? Bold move that!"
Vaidy: "Poor Irfan: is he going to be a tourist on the ODI leg, like Rohit was on the Test leg? And when suddenly called upon, will be so rusty, that he will invariably fail and be booted out..."
Narahs: "We are the first team in the ODI history to open with two double centurions!"
