What India is badly missing is runs by the late-middle order. They would be even stronger with Yuvraj in the team. Some Indians I know accuse Dhoni and Srinivasan of favouring CSK players like Jadeja. SA recovered from 80 odd for 4 against Zimbabwe because they bat deep (I know Miller is not going to score a hundred every time). Australia bat deep too. India has a fine top and middle order but a thin late middle order and tail. Those 20-25 runs that they did not make towards the end could cost them the game. This looks a good batting surface

yeah but it is a fixable problem…when your top order is in trouble like ours , it is impossible to fix.

Yuraj will come back for sure after regaining form in domestic cricket. dhoni can and shd play for few more years…ashwin averages 35 at no 8

rohit, dhawan, kohli, rihanay, raina, yuraj, dhoni, ashiwn…india is all set for next 5 years as most of them are young players…even dhoni is only 33 i think.
