5 things Indian squad will miss from the 2011 World Cup winning squad

Poggy
South Africa v India - 2015 ICC Cricket World Cup

#2. No one in Top 5 to roll his arm over

India v Sri Lanka - 2011 ICC World Cup Final

The 2011 winning team had Sehwag, Sachin, Raina, Pathan who could role their arm for two- three overs as per the needs of the situation.

But in the present team, none of the top could role over their arm even for one over. Kohli is not a bowler who could send down two or three overs as evidenced by the fact that he bowled only five overs in 2017 and three in 2016 in ODIs. Same is the case with Rohit Sharma who last bowled in 2016.

With Kedar Jadhav injured, Suresh Raina is the only option who could do the job at present .
