Indo S African ODIs starts today at 0600 PM IST

Both teams will vie for supremcay, the No 2 ODI team in the world, India ( 121 points ) vs the No 4 team , South Africa( 114 points ).

This is a great opportunity for the selectors to select their 16 for the World Cup. Players who signed for fabulous sums in IPL IV will try to maintain their reputation.

That World Cup precedes IPL IV has raised many eyebrows and the doubts are in the minds of cricket lovers whether their heroes will deliver the goods for their nation in the WC 2011 !

Skills will be tested in this great ODI series. India are in prime form as they drew the Test series and won the lone T20 against mighty South Africa !
