Indian team meeting over in just seven minutes

Despite the pre-match chorus about not taking Ireland lightly, India's Saturday team meeting to finalise the playing XI against Ireland lasted only seven minutes.

The Indians have decided to field the same team that played against England, which means Piyush Chawla would get one more opportunity to establish himself in the squad.

It also means that paceman Ashish Nehra will get another three days to recover from his back strain before the game against the Netherlands on March 9.

India will be looking to win against Ireland after facing disappointment against England. India won their first game against Bangladesh on Feb 19.
