Dravid, when asked about Dhoni and Yuvraj Singh's continuity in the Indian team, said, "It is a call that is got to be taken by the selectors and the management".

Agarkar, while commenting about the veteran duo's batting order, told, "I am not quite sure MS Dhoni and Yuvraj can both bat at 4 and 5".

Indian batting coach Bangar told that Dhoni and Yuvraj are helping and guiding young players and they are also mentoring the team.

Prasanna said, "I don't think they (Dhoni and Yuvraj) will be able to continue till the next World Cup in 2019, they will be 38 then. We need fresh and young legs and players who are extremely agile."

Gilchrist said, "Dhoni and Yuvi need to work out themselves if they have the motivation to continue that long" after asked about the players' continuity till 2019 World Cup.
