Top Cricketers Not in the World Cup 2015 Squad

Top Cricketers Not in the World Cup 2015 Squad : 


Yuvraj Singh (India): Yuvi was India’s best player in the 2007 World Twenty20 and the 2011 World Cup, and he was the man of the tournament of the World Cup 2011. But after that his form had declined since then, and he failed to make a mark when it was time to pick the World Cup team squad. But it must have been tough leaving out a once high-impact top player, but it was a pragmatic call by Indian team selectors. 

Yuvraj Singh (India):


Gautam Gambhir (India): He was the top run scored for India in the finals of the World Twenty20 and World Cup, and his contribution to his team’s rise in all types of formats in the Gary Kirsten era was immense. 

Gautam Gambhir (India):


Kieron Pollard and Dwayne Bravo (West Indies): A set of two top players boycotted the tour of India. They are Pollard and Bravo were among them. They both has now been left out of the World Cup squad 2015. Chief selector Clive Lloyd said, insists of they were dropped for their poor performance only. 

Kieron Pollard and Dwayne Bravo (West Indies):


Alastair Cook (England): He was the The former England ODI captain and now he is in out. His extraordinarily poor form with the bat—no hundreds in the last 45 innings, one fifty in the last five series and coupled with England’s horror run in ODIs.No series wins over a major team since June 2012,So the selectors doesn't choose him.

Alastair Cook (England):


Nathan Lyon (Australia): He was the off-spinner troubled India a great deal in the recent Test series and he picked up 23 wickets. But his form with one-day cricket has been brief, and he wasn’t experienced enough to merit a place to go ahead of the more experienced Xavier Doherty. 

Nathan Lyon (Australia):


Shoaib Malik (Pakistan): This Was it as a 2011 headline repeated by mistake in think? But the fact is No. The former Pakistan captain was left out again for the 2015 World Cup, right now when he is in the prime of his life. He is one of Pakistan’s key cricketers of the last decade, Malik will have to wait longer for another track at the World Cup 2015. 

Shoaib Malik (Pakistan):



Murali Vijay (India): he performed well to his recent tours to South Africa, England and Australia, India’s Test opener displayed discipline in stroke-play and staying power in the crease rarely seen from an Indian batsman since the heady years of Rahul Dravid. Being he is in-form batsman with 482 runs in the Tests against Australia team, Vijay could have made the team in place of the struggling Shikhar Dhawan.

Shoaib Malik missing out of World Cup probables

Pakistan have left out experienced allrounder and former captain Shoaib Malik from the list of 30 probables for the 2011 World Cup



Malik had been under the scanner of the PCB's integrity committee and ultimately appears to have failed to gain clearance for selection.
Wicket-keeper Kamran Akmal, over whom there has been as much speculation, has, however, been selected.
Akmal was the subject of an ACSU notice earlier this year but has since asked for and received a written clearance from the ICC.
Malik has not been linked with any specific incident though he features regularly in the fevered speculation and gossip of Pakistan's cricket structure.
The world body extended the deadline for Pakistan from December 19 to January 5.
Salman Butt, Mohammad Asif and Mohammad Amir, provisionally suspended for their alleged role in the Lord's spot-fixing scandal, were never in the running for the squad.
"We are satisfied that we have selected the best squad from amongst the available players," chief selector Mohsin Khan said.
Squad: Mohammad Hafeez, Ahmed Shehzad, Taufiq Umar, Nasir Jamshed, Mohammad Yousuf, Younis Khan, Misbah-ul-Haq, Umar Akmal, Azhar Ali, Asad Shafiq, Naveed Yasin, Kamran Akmal, Sarfraz Ahmed, Salman Ahmed, Shahid Afridi, Abdul Razzaq, Yasir Arafat, Rana Naved-ul-Hasan, Abdul Rehman, Saeed Ajmal, Yasir Shah, Zulfiqar Babar, Shoaib Akhtar, Umar Gul, Wahab Riaz, Sohail Tanveer, Tanvir Ahmed, Junaid Khan, Aizaz Cheema, Asad Ali
