The team looks quite good. It seems to be a mix of experience, youth and a 40+ cricketer. George Bailey will be in the hot seat. Perhaps his namesake's Irish cream bottle would do him good. Since the World Cup will be held in Sri Lanka, their spinners will have a huge task, especially since the fast bowling unit looks a bit inexperienced.
