Lol the guys at NDTV had an entire panel of experts talking about India's possible QF opponents.

Everyone was worried. :laugh:

India should forget about quarter-final scenarios and all that nonsense. They should just go out there and give it their best shot. Screw the media and the fair weather fans - pay no attention to what they have to say.

The playing eleven for tomorrow should be :

1) Sachin Tendulkar
2) Gautham Gambhir
3) Virat Kohli
4) Yuvraj Singh
5) Mahendra Singh Dhoni
6) Suresh Raina
7) Yousuf Pathan
8) Ravichandran Ashwin
9) Harbhajan Singh
10)Zaheer Khan
11)Munaf Patel

Virender Sehwag is an unlikely starter because of a niggle, which means India don't have to drop Yousuf Pathan to play Suresh Raina. Ashwin has to play tomorrow. If he doesn't it means he's basically there only to make up the numbers.

Sehwag is a must for the knockouts and we need to replace Kohli for Raina. Thinking of playing Australia in the quarters just gives me the creeps. Can't imagine Sachin's ODI career ending with a loss to Australia.

BTW this match should be a good one. The last one we can lose and not worry :(

WIndies fans, do you really want your team to win this one?

If you lose you play Pakistan. If you win you play Australia. Who do you think you have a better chance of beating in the quarters?

Agree on all points.

both teams should go all out for a win both sides need a non minnow win before playing the quarters.

Really looking forward to seeing the two Rs bowl t - Unless they've decided to rest Roach
Wouldn't risk any of their big players (Gayle + Roach). Windies can beat Pak, I just can't see them beating Aus.

Both sides probably wouldn't mind losing. Could be a strange game.

don't know their spinners can tie the knots around Aus MO also Galyle and company would rather face the Aus attack then Pakistan's, the only factor works in Aus favour is they are a more reliable side.

That's the reason you don't want to face them. They are too professional. Pakistan despite all the positives they have shown this WC can still be awful (NZ, Canada). You could easily see a guy like Sammy take 5 against Pakistan but against Aus, he would be lucky to get through 3 overs.
