Chief Selector Dilip Vengsarkar today said the Indian team picked for the Cricket World Cup was capable of winning cricket's biggest prize in the West Indies.
"This is the best available team that we have selected
and it has the potential to win the Cricket world cup," the former India
captain said.
Asked why the selectors have kept faith in Virender Sehwag
in spite of the Delhi batsman's indifferent form, Vengsarkar said, "he's
performed very well in the past and is an experienced player. He's got a lot
of cricket left in him. He can also bowl. We hope he will do well".
Vengsarkar was curt when asked about the experiments and said
the media had stretched it too long.
"It depends upon situations. We don't experiment. But we will try players
in different positions as the need arises. You, in the media, have stretched
the experimentation for too long," he said.
