BCCI has rested Virat Kohli... and made Rohit Sharma the captain... and Shikar Dhawan his deputy... Also this will be chance for india and Pak to play each other after a long time and both cricket boards and fans will be anticipating the clash... Pakistan though a lowly 7th in Test ranking and a mediocre 5th in ODIs are still very unpredictable, as the their fans like to remind all.. and are a formidable limited over unit...so Indian fans will be a bit wary...but excited and quietly confident as the defending champions and 6 time winners ...about winning the tournament again for the 7th time in this the 14th edition of the tournament.
