India Aim To Make It 3-In-A-Row Vs UAE In World Cup

Rohit, who holds the world record of highest individual score in ODIs, will like to make amends for the low scores and push for a real big one against a UAE bowling attack that has failed to defend scores of 285 and 278 against comparatively weaker teams like Zimbabwe and Ireland.

Before the knock-out stage comes calling, Rohit would love to get a big one under his belt.

The same is the case for skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni whose bad patch has become a prolonged one. He would like to get some runs and a bit of form going his way before the West Indies game and he will not get a better chance to do that than against an opposition like the UAE.

While there are theories about testing the bench strength against minnows, Dhoni is unlikely to tinker with his winning combination in a big-ticket event, except that either Stuart Binny or Bhuvneshwar Kumar will have to replace Shami.

The logic of retaining the same playing XI, in case it happens, is that this set-up have worked to earn victories against superior opponents and have earned every right to play against a weaker side also, which will give them a chance to go all guns blazing.
