A Nightmare for the Captains



Being a captain a player has to take care of himself as well as his team mates. A captain's responsibilty is alot more than other players of the squad. He is not only the leader of the squad but also a main part of the Think Tank. It is just like nightmare for a captain to lose his important player or players at the edge of the biggest tournament of the game. Many captains have seen this nightmare in the past, but in present it has become a usuall thing for the captains. Many teams are struggling from injured players in this crucial time when World Cup is just on head.
Micheal Hussey who has proved his selection in the team and who is considered as a match winning player for the Aussies is dissiponted for being Dropped from the WC squad, as he is not 100% fit. Hauritz is also dropped From the squad for the same reason. The Australian captain Ricky Ponting was injured but he will lead his squad in the World Cup. 
Many English players were injured during their tour to Australia in their one-day series. Few of them have recovered but like australians they have also lost their middle-order batsman Eoin Morgan who is replaced by Ravi Bopara.
Indian pace attack is also changed after the injury of Praveen Kumar who is now replaced by Sreesanth. Same in their neighbours Pakistan have lost Sohail Tanvir who is replaced by a left hand fast bowler Junaid Khan who will debut his international career in the Mega event.
