The team appears to have a good batting line up with most batsmen having a good strike rate of more than 100.
The bowling however appeasr to be slightly weak with only the likes of Makhaya Nitini, Muralitharan, Jacob Oram and Albie Morke of some creditable performances.
Hello
MS. Dhoni ODI average is very low compared to other players but still his price is $1,500,000 and S. Badrinath has better average than Dhoni. This is what I call unnecessary hype…
