Well, the squad look as good one that have been selected in the recent past. but still there are some mistakes everyone would say. then what is the mistake or the person you really miss in this squad? defenitely Sachin is a big miss and its because of the rest he asked, so the Indian team going for Asia cup will be MS Dhoni (capt & wk), Virender Sehwag, Gautam Gambhir, Virat Kohli, Suresh Raina, Rohit Sharma, Ravindra Jadeja, Harbhajan Singh, Praveen Kumar, Zaheer Khan, Ashish Nehra, Pragyan Ojha, Ashok Dinda, R Ashwin, Saurabh Tiwary. The best drop from the squad was Murali Vijay,he was purely not perfect to be an indian opener.and the best pick for me is Saurab thiwary. Yuvi,Yusuf,Dinesh Karthik,Amit mishra are out of the team. Yuvi was not doing well in the recent past and i dont think anything wrong in droping him. Yusuf, mishra and Karthik were not upto to their best in the T20 worldcup and zim tour. but i really miss Uthappa and Irfan, why the selectors avoid them again and again? and there is no backup wicket keeper.

Yes you are right regarding drop of M. Vijay. Uthappa also deserves a chance. Sachin N Yuvraj both are big miss. Meanwhile yuvraj is not in good form. rest team is looking well balanced. I dont think tht a backup wicketkeeper is needed. Lets see how they perform in the cup.

I completely agree with u guys! Irfan Pathan Such a key player.Can be pushed up the order to give the team a flyer.Can be relied on to bat with a set player down the order.Yusuf ifan combination brings fond memories!Bowling-well not so good when he lowered his speed.But man I havn't seen a person swing the bowl as good as he does! Yuvi Get fit and stop trying to hit bowls too hard.Batting is instinct.Go with that. Also has to become a mature batsmen basically. SREESANTH I know his behaviour goes to EXTREME at times but come on he is the only fast bowler in india right now who looks for wickets more than anything else. If properly groomed now has the potential to be the best. Robin UTTAPA Man he can wack the bowl a long way that too reverse sweeping it!! He is looking much more clear headed now.Really wish he was in the team. Piyush chawla Bowls aggresive is young and talented.Has to be given the opportunity in international cricket more. All told I thing the selections are timid and not looking for aggressive players who have the desire to play for victory and well just stretch the opposition to the max.

even though sreeshanth is from my state, i dont opt him for odi squad. because he is not at all economical in bowling, he give away runs more. but we should groom him up by selecting him for test matches, there he will be useful with his wicket taking ball. and oiyush chowla, i dont feel that he is that much good, because performing only upto the standard of a partime bowler.

I miss my God of Cricket " Sachin Tendulkar "...And I miss yuvi too but he must be rested for his behavior in the recent times..I want him to bounce back very hard in the world cup... I miss Robin and Irfan too...Don't know what these selectors are thinking about them..There should be a good all rounder in the team..Irfan is one of the best..He can be explosive too..A new selection committee should be formed first... Then only Indian team selection will be good...

ya Irfan is avoided again and again even after performing well. selectors dont consider him as a allrounder! I dont know why the selectors want him to be a bowler, not accepting him as a useful allrounder for india.
