India's performance in the recent WCt20, would have come as a surprise for a few,after their early exit in Asia cup. What could have been the reason for it?
Is it Dhoni's return to captaincy, like Sachin's mere presence which used to lift the players morale?
Or the bowling unit, which includes Mishra's spin?
Or the toss factor?


After India's dismal performance in Asia cup, now Dhoni is back in frame, in the Indian team. And too add on, India has always performed exceptionally well, under Dhoni's captaincy in ICC events. It was not that Dhoni was reluctant to play Mishra in playing 11. Mishra did play a match in recently concluded series between Ind vs Aus, were every match was a high scoring one. Mishra was at the receiving end then, but now things have changed once it for all.                                                   Kohli one of the best batsman in all 3 formats, is always there to stabilize the innings,

We are always lacking in the bowling department. The WCt20, might turn up as a boon to us, as we have the luxury of 3 quality spinners in our line up. And not to forget the contribution of our fast bowlers. Bhuvaneshwar Kumar was the only bowler who troubled Gayle in the IPL, during his knock of 175. This match was not much of a difference.     

The only thing which is left to see is how India react when we are put into bat first. One has to judge the quality of the wicket and put a decent score on the board, which is sufficient enough for our bowlers to defend. 

Area's to concentrate-: Yuvi's form and fielding (catches win matches)                    

Alternate option-: Yuvi is struggling for form and fitness, and India has replacements in the name of Rahane and Binny. But Dhoni's confidence in Yuvi has not dropped. He still hopes that best of Yuvi is yet to come.

As we enter the second phase of tournament, it looks like yet another tournament where Srilanka looks good enough to seal a spot in the final. And I am hoping that its Ind vs Sl final. But nothing could be predicted so early in t20 tournament, where the game changes every ball.
