Just few days left for the festivity of ICC WORLD CUP-2015 to start. We are ready with our 15 braveheart newbie soldiers who will be fighting to safeguard the World Cup Trophy in order to not give it back. Team India left a remarkable memory of victory in World Cup 2011; but this time there are several changes in the World Cup Squad 2015 and it makes it obvious to miss these legendary players this time:
Sachin Tendulkar: do we even need to introduce this Master Blaster who holds almost all the records in International Cricket. It is well said that if cricket is a religion in India then Sachin is surely the God of Cricket. His fourteen Man of the Match Awards, five Man of the Series Awards along with 6 National Honors and innumerous records in India and Overseas makes him what he is today. Sachin is someone who is missed every time when one will think about cricket.

Gautam Gambhir: a left-handed opening batsman who played an integral part in India’s wins in the finals of both the 2007 World Twenty20 (75 from 54 balls) and the 2011 Cricket World Cup (97 from 122 balls). Gambhir is the only Indian and one of four international cricketers to have scored five hundreds in five consecutive Test matches he is the highest run-scorer for India in Twenty20 Internationals. His 20 centuries in ODI’s and Test matches and 12 Man of the Match awards along with the prestigious records itself speaks for him. Surely, Gautam you will be a major missing in World Cup 2015.
