SHEWAG GONEEEEEEEEEEE
Seven overs for the team India were good but the 8th over proved ominous for India shewag choking on the ball of Bresenan outside the off stump caught by prior beautifully……well Sachin still on the crease and Gambhir joining him lets hope team will make a solid score…………… well current scre is 58-1 after 10 overs and swann is on the attack, gambhir joining the sachin looks in good touch

First big clash in the CWC 2011 is about to begin just in few hour from now ……….the game between India and England at 2011 at Bangalore which was earlier scheduled at Eden garden at Kolkata. With both the team played their first match, India playing and winning their first match against Bangladesh convincingly at Mirpur, whereas England got hiccups during their match against Netherlands. Well English captain Andrew Strauss has proclaimed profoundly that they are here to spoil Indian party. The match is scheduled to begin at 2:30 at Bangalore’s Chinnaswami stadium. Earlier practice match was played between India and Australia where spinner played huge role, the same is accepted again in this match. Toss would be playing a major role in this match, though the dew factor will have its role cut out because of weather in Bangalore but still the toss would play a major role. India would be playing with two spinners but have major concerns regarding injuries to key players like Sachin, Shewag, Nehra, Yuvrraj. Though captain of Team India MSD has proclaimed that team has no serious concerns of injuries except Nehra who has 80 percent recovered from injuries and team would be playing to its full strength, lets hope so.
England who have suffered huge defeat from the hands of Australia (6-1) in Australia, were not so clinical in the match against Netherland. They have also suffered set back with the injury of Eion Morgan just before start of the world cup but they have advantage of Graeme swann who has fully recovered from the groin injury. There are few key battles to be watched swann against Shewag and also Petersen against Harbajhan and would be playing as opener. These clashes would be interesting……so let’s keep our fingers crossed ……..

Well the time by which the article would be playing or would have played its second practice mach against the lesser opposition New Zealand which have faced two complete clean sweeps in the Indian subcontinent when they played against minnows Bangladesh and mightier India. Well that is a matter of past, this article is about the prospects of India in this world cup; Team India is the front runner in this world cup as the contenders. With its power packed batting line up containing likes of virendra shewag, Gautam gambhir ,Mahendra singh dhoni,Yuvraj singh and the man himself the maestro Sachin ramesh tendulkar and Yusuf pathan at no 7 doing the required finishing job .with such names in batting line up every past great and experts have declared India as the best bet, with emergence of youth like Virat kohli and Suresh raina has done a world of good to team, team looks a perfect blend of youth and experience.Virat kohli after its recent tour of south Africa has emerged as mentally strong and temperament. He has shown equanimity at the tour. But the problem with the team is recent form of Yuvraj Singh who has been missing the script for last twelve or so months to add to this wound is the recent batting form of Suresh raina who will struggle even to make it to final 11 after the performance of Virat in the recent past. we hope that they will hit form before the inaugural match on the 19 Feb. over all batting looks a perfect mixture of youth and experience Sachin tendulkar supposingly playing his last world cup will be anchor around which whole team would revolve.Sachin would look to bat through the inning of 50 ovrs,well interestingly shewag has said he will also look to bat for 50 ovrs this can be ominous sign for oppositions.

Moving on to the analysis of bowling team lacks as real fast bowler who can make it to 145-150 km/h but team has a clever wily seamer Zaheer khan who can be o throne in the flesh for any team. He has swing, reverse swing and has deadly Yorkers, he is a real piece of glass in the eyes of left handers with bowl coming in to left hander’s give them a tough time, his majority of victim have been left handers.Talking of the spinners here comes the turbenator Harbajhan singh who on any surface would give a tough time to any opposition his ability to bowl in powerful plays along with the dorsa are to be watched off. spinning department has lot option with the part time bowlers, the performance of Piyush chawla in the first practice match will be a good headache for the team think tank….with all these plus points and playing on the home turf will be an added advantage so keeping our fingers crossed lets hope that India wins the world cup and gifts it to maestro Sachin tendulkar ………………..lets cheer for India GO India GO
