The final squad for the upcoming world cup is going to declare today.The national selection committee headed by Krishnamachari Srikkanth will pick 15 players for the mega event at the home soil.Indian skipper Dhoni earlier said that 'the world cup squad is almost less or more settled '.And again he stated that one or two performance (perticularly at the current tour in SA) does n't matter,Player's last 12 months performance will be taken into consideration for the selection.Sarphera BLOGGER thinks that playing at bouncy track prior to world cup is a bad move for world cup preparation.If SB were chief selector then the 15 player for the world cup will be SACHIN,SHEWAG,GAMBHIR,KOHLI,DHONI,RAINA,ROHIT SHARMA,YUSUF PATHAN,CHETESWAR PUJARA,HARBHAJAN,ZAHEER KHAN,PRAGYAN OJHA,ASHISH NEHERA,MUNAF PATEL AND PRAVEEN KUMAR.As far as opening is concerned their are many players in the squad capable of opening,so their is no place of reserve opener.Hence M Vijay is out of squad.I prefer Sachin and Shewag to open the innings and Gambhir to bat at no 3.Kohli,Dhoni,Raina and Yusuf to bat at No 4 to No 7 respectively.Yuvraj is out of squad for his dubicious form and lack of confidence.As there are many spinning options in the team their is no need of 3rd spinner.So R Aswin and Chawla are not selected.There are 4 seamers in the squad and I think Zaheer and Nehera to be the strike bowler.Dhoni may take risk of playing three seamers as the pace bowlers are not consistent.Rohit Sharma is a good finisher and he can open the innings ,so he is in reserve. The inconsistany of lower middle order forced me to pick Cheteswar pujara.I would prefer Badrinath over Pujara,but Badrinath is not among probable 30.According to SB the sqaud is balanced.
