It's disheartening to see Mohammad Kaif's name missing in the 15 member squad for World Cup 2007 in the West Indies. This man has the highest batting average in the last series in the Carribean in ODI's and was the second highest run scorer in Test matches behind Rahul Dravid.
ODI's - 5 Matches, 5 Innings, 205 Runs at an average of 51.25
Test's - 4 Matches, 6 Innings, 226 Runs at an average of 56.50 [Ofcourse the only excellent Test match score is the 148 not out in this series]
Surely his ODI performance in terms of batting (in West Indies) is decent and his fielding is the best amongst the players today. Having thought of Robin Uthappa and Dinesh Karthik, our selectors should have given Mohammad Kaif a chance especially more when you see that Yuvaraj has been selected.
