Sydney: Former Australian Test seamer Stuart Clark Tuesday said the decision to rest skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni from the first Test against Australia shows that India place greater emphasis on the 2015 World Cup rather than the upcoming series, both to be played Down Under.

India are scheduled to play four Tests, starting December 4 and then a One-day International (ODI) series also involving England in the build-up to the World Cup, beginning February 14. Clark does not think retaining the Border-Gavaskar Trophy is the top priority for India this summer.
