Two questions in my mind

• Rahul will get the snub?
• and will we play five bowlers ?

[Ankit_sharma03]

Rahul has to play ............there is no question about it 

About rohit, i fear he ll play considering its fav venue kohli might be tempted to 

[bowl_out]

Is the squad announced already?

[SK_IH]

i agree rohit might be selected for eden gardens factor,so if Vijay will be the 12th man?

in an ideal world he shouldnt be there but i am sure he ll be there 

[bowl_out]

Easy to pick the XI by elimination 

 

No Ishant, Bhuvi, Rohit and likely Rahul

if rahul is actually snubbed, i ll start believing those theories about some forces trying to ruin his career

[Jimmy Cliff]

They'd justify Dhawan's selection based on his MOTS award in Lanka. Rahul will be the bakra again.

there is no such thing. A captain always wants teams good or he wont retain his job for long. His ideas can be good or bad but there is no conspiracy

well hopefully he plays

Dhawan will open with KL Rahul, Vijay will get role on bench. It will change in 3rd Test match in South Africa, where after failing to score more than 20 in 4 Innings, with series 0-1 down, Dhawan will sit on bench.
