Three of most prominent teams of cricketing world India, Sri Lanka and Australia will fight it with each other in Australia in the upcoming Commonwealth Bank Tri-Series 2008 starting from Feb 03.
As India is eyeing to level the four-match Test series against Australia at Adelaide, after staging a great fightback against Aussies to register a historical win at Perth. The selector’s preference of roping in youngster while leaving behind the experienced one’s that too at the cost of Sourav and Dravid has raised eyebrows of many across the country.
The Indian cricket board BCCI has given a chance to young players due to their fresh legs and also after watching their recent performances from close quarters in the domestic circuit. This has opened up another fresh controversy and hence a matter of debate and concern.
Meanwhile, the Indian team is preparing hard to face the next challenge of fourth and final Test, in pursuit of levelling the four match series, commencing from Jan 24 (Thu) at Adelaide Oval. India would surely like to uphold its winning impetus.
Indian Team for Australia Tri series (2008)
Mahendra Singh Dhoni (Captain)’ Yuvraj Singh (vice-captain), Sachin Tendulkar, Virender Sehwag, Dinesh Karthik, Irfan Pathan, Gautam Gambhir, Ishant Sharma, S Sreesanth, Robin Uthappa, R P Singh, Rohit Sharma, Suresh Raina, Harbhajan Singh, Piyush Chawla, Praveen Kumar.

February 4, 2008 at 12:00 AMYoung indian cricketers shud concentrate on cricket rather than comment on sr players,they should realize that young players also will become sr players in short period of time,this kind of attitude will lead to week in their performance...Selectors also should consider few senior players..simply they cannot take school boy revenge for the past incidents...the entire team should have only one goal in their mind that is "CHAMPIAN INDIA"..... better dhoni and yuvraj shut their mouth and concentrate on the game.......rather than seeking popularaty in media... "JAI HIND"

January 30, 2008 at 12:00 AMi think one day cricket is all about the temperament & confidence the team carries that particular day of the match. My heart says india will the triseries but australia are always favourites against any teams in 50 over one day.
