ICC world cup 2019 is around the corner and India is looking forward to lift the trophy for the third time. India is brainstorming on its squard for this tournament. India's former skipper Anil Kumble  feels that the team India has missed a trick or few and should promote MS Dhoni at No 4 for the World Cup.  Kumble belives  feels that there is no substitute to a strong and formidable top order and Dhoni's elevation would do a world of good for the 2011 champions in England and Wales.

Kumble told CicketNext, "If you look back at the last couple of years of success that the Indian team has had, it has been mainly due to the fact that the top three have performed consistently, and it still remains so. In a 50-over game, you want your top three to contribute. For me, I still believe MS Dhoni should bat at 4. (Numbers) 5, 6 and 7 is something that you need to start thinking about and that’s where I felt that there was too much chopping, changing and trying to figure out who will fit in into that 4, 5 or 6 in that middle order other than MS Dhoni. That to me has made it a little more unsettling for us, watching from outside.”
