Wrist spin - The resurrected art that is set to dominate the World Cup

At one stage, there was a threat of wrist spin becoming extinct before it was revitalised by the current crop

Keshore: India's success as a bowling unit will depend a lot on how well the spin duo of Kuldeep and Chahal adapt to this batting friendly surfaces. Remember Ashwin and Jaddu going for plenty during the Champion's trophy. Settling into an ideal pace and length will be challenging in these surfaces.

Tanmay Gavaskar: "Interesting to see Shami with the new ball this early, it's most likely Bhuvi will be taking the second over then. Complete change of plans from the last warm-up."

Abinash Das: "Versatility and consistency will be the hallmark of the teams willing to dominate this World Cup. There will be contrasting situations of high scoring encounters followed by a thrilling low score chase. The team which adapts the best will get the glory."

Ravi: "Why Bhuvneshwar didn't bowl with new ball? His abilities with new ball is better than anyone." -- Maybe this bowling combination is what the management has zeroed in on for the main matches

Bangladesh Preview: Their experience will matter most, feels Harsha Bhogle

Diptimoy Ghosh: No doubt a great innings for Rahul, but scoring against Asian teams and scoring against other teams are different in this format. Consistency and patience are going to be the key factor to be mattered here in WC'19.

CHIRAG SHAH: Great to see combination of power and technique.

Abhishek: If Rahul clicks in this world cup, India's middle order will be as good as their top 3. This will make India the most formidable batting group.

Sharan: Good to see Rahul playing with so much confidence today:) Looks like he is the better option for number 4

Suvodip Banik: And with the wicket of Shankar, Rahul wins the battle for No.4 for the opening games.

The chronicles of Vijay and Shankar

What goes into the making of a 'pucca' cricketer?

MaheshGali: Two contenders for Number 4 position are batting now...Great opportunity to prove a point in tough conditions...

naru: "Yet once again India is cautious in first powerplay and setting up for strong foundation to score in middle and death overs."

Mohan Reddy: "I know lot of people won't agree with this, but just my opinion. India should try Jadeja for No#4 position. From his domestic record he sure can play long (very) innings and accelerate the innings with his six hitting capabilities, can bowl 10 overs and not to mention is best fielder in the team.."

Shahanad Chaudhary: "@Gopi - Let's hope South Africa is not its victim this time."

Krish: "Could the start be any more contrasting for West Indies and India"

Gopi: "I believe rain is going to be the x-factor this CWC and its going to really turn around games."
