World Cup 2015: The Indian trump cards

With only a handful of One Day International (ODI) games left before the World Cup 2015, it is high time that Team India finalizes on its top 15 players who will be making that flight to Australia. Though India has a huge list of potential players, we can easily guess the 11 that will take the field in the first group stage match of the marquee event. Probable playing 11: Shikhar Dhawan, Ajinkya Rahane, Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, Suresh Raina, MS Dhoni, Ambati Rayudu, Ravindra Jadeja, Ravichandran Ashwin, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Mohammad Shami,With just 4 remaining spots and a huge amount of talent available, it is going to be tough times for the selectors in picking up these players. Though, theoretically, these players are referred to as the substitutes, I would like to call them as the trump cards for India’s success, as in case anything untoward happens to these first choice players either before or during the tournament, these are the ones who are likely to step in.Here are the players who can possibly fill those four spots: 

#1 Kuldeep Yadav

This 19-year-old chinaman bowler has caught the eye of the entire cricketing world with his recent Indian Premier League (IPL) and Under-19 World Cup performances. With his unique and genuine ability to spin the ball both ways, he can bamboozle batsmen and fetch you wickets.

He is young and fearless to toss the ball and has not been studied and exposed to the world cricket. With the likes of Sunil Narine and Saeed Ajmal more likely to not make it to the World Cup, Team India can use him as their mystery man, and, with Dhoni known to be good in handling youngsters, he can turn out to be a great asset.
