India focusses on batting in Net session

Zaheer and Bajji practised batting more at the Nets at Bangalore.

The tail end is actually important. One expert said at a Test match " Now that we have got the batsmen out, let us get the run getters out" !

The Indian lower order is as important as the top order. Both Sehwag and Sachin want to bat the entire 50 overs ( Sachin batted the entire overs for his 200 not out against SA and Sehwag 47 overs in his 175 . Kohli is in sublime form. The other batsmen like Gambhir, Dhoni and Yuvraj are in reasonable form. But then the lower order becomes very important, should India lose some 3 to 4 wickets.

The lower order is Pathan, Bajji and Zaheer. It is very important that they get runs. All these three allrounders are capable of scoring 40s or 50s and their batting will be handy in the days to come. Chawla and Ashwin have got hundreds in first class cricket, but this is the World Cup.
