Indian Team for World Cup 2015

After a lot of deliberations, selectors finally decided the Indian Team for the World Cup to be played in Australia and New Zealand. While there were some obvious choices but cricket fans were disappointed when Yuvraj Singh could not find a place in World Cup squad despite his tremendous form in Ranji Trophy. Besides Yuvraj Singh, selectors did not consider explosive opener batsman Virender Sehwag and elegant left hander Gautam Gambir. So much so Harbhajan Singh and Zaheer Khan were also not selected.
