Captain Rohit Sharma and Chief selector Ajit Agarkar's press conference on Tuesday in Sri Lanka where they announced the 15 member provisional squad for the ICC ODI World Cup in October-November didn't have anything that surprised anyone.

And the final list was a mirror image of that.

However, as is always the case, a number of questions are being asked about the squad that has been picked, which will not be changed unless some player picks up a serious injury. For the record the last date to make changes to the provisional squads is September 28. Any changes after that will need an ICC nod.
