India tour of Srilanka, July 2012

Rahane Gambhir Kohli Sehwag Raina Dhoni Irfan Ashwin Zaheer Yadav Rahul

Instead of pushing Sehwag down the order I would rather have Gambhir come in at 3 and Kohli at 4 since Gambhir is used to batting at 3 and Sehwag is useful for the power-play overs.

[ShebbySB]

We should play 7 batmen all the time coz it doesn't matter whether we play 5 or 4 bowlers we are always gonna concede 90-100 runs in the last 10 overs.So this is my team for the last 2 ODIs:- Sehwag(Bat/Off spin) Gambhir(Bat) Rahane(Bat) Kohli(Bat/Med pace) Manoj(Bat/Leg spin) Dhoni(Bat/WK) © Raina(Bat/Off spin) Irfan(All-rounder) Ashwin(Off spin/Can bat) Zaheer(Fast med) Umesh(Fast)/Dinda(Fast-med)

Anyone except Rohit (This guys needs a break and can comeback strongly)

[saneindian]

Don't agree. If we have decided to go with 5 bowlers, lets stick to that strategy for a slightly longer period. Too much chopping and changing will not help the team. The likes of Dinda and other 3rd seamers need to be given a longer rope to prove themselves. Also, relying on 3-4 spinners may work in SC but will not work in next CT in 2013 in Eng or in the 2015 WC in Aus.

flat track again and as expected india win. only thing missing was the customary flat track ton from the new found FTB kohli.

You mean to say SL can't win even on FTBs.. what type of team is that.. tennis ball team?????

Sehwag Gambhir Kohli Tiwary Dhoni Raina Pathan Ashwin Zaheer Dinda Rahul

[Needforspeed]

I think there is going to be only one change. Tiwary in place of Rohit Sharma.

no they actually are a plastic ball team:hysterical::hysterical:

[Gunner]

Play Yadav and have him open the bowling with Zaheer...

[Cricket Tragic]

^ Rave Sharma(:P) had decent last game. Don't think he will be be dropped for Ojha' date=' who went for 44 in 6 overs.[/quote']

[Vilander]

Play Yadav and have him open the bowling with Zaheer...

:two_thumbs_up: need for speed.

[Sidhoni]

Bets created for the 4th ODI.. :icflove:

[SLICKR392]

Play Yadav and have him open the bowling with Zaheer...

Pathan has been bowling rather well with the new ball. Give Irfan a sort spell of 2-3 overs, if he is wicket less..hand it over to Yadav.

[saneindian]

Let Yadav/Dinda take the new ball ahead of Zaheer. MSD said the other day the reason he finished Zak's quots early was to test his young bowlers bowling in death overs. Give the younger bowlers the new ball to see how they perform.
