Gambhir Sehwag Rahane Pujara Kohli Dinesh Karthik Irfan Pathan Harbhajan Ojha Yadav Ishant/Zak.

you are bringing in Pathan; I would rather retain Ashwin, who has done well with the bat and taken atleast 3 wickets every match. It is not like Pathan will take 5 wickets in a match.

This is way I started this thread as became obvious writing was on the wall for out team. So chaps what would be your team for a brand new series. Big changes I expect by many. Mine 1 Rahane 2 Gambhir 3 Pujara 4 Kohli 5 Rohit 6 Sehwag 7 Saha 8 Ashwin 9 Yadav 10 Ishant 11 Oijha Zak is still in my thoughts. Mukund could come in, gambhir has just about earnt another game or two. Veeru will have chance at 6 or axed forever.

It all depends on the role we want Ojha to play. He is not a strike bowler and we better not expect that from him.

its a good side, not sure if Sehwag will be made to bat in the middle order.

[Sachin=GOD]

the series is going to start in Feb 2013 so it would be incredibly stupid to even think about naming a team right now...

[jairamesh]

As long as Tendu, Viru, MSD, and Gambhir play, I am happy.

[CG]

its a good side' date=' not sure if Sehwag will be made to bat in the middle order.[/quote'] Keeping south africa in mind We have to try rahane as opener and shewag has to be convinced ,Which i think he would also want is to bat in the middle order.

Good side, Id just swap Rohit and Sehwags batting positions. Not sure also who would captain out of GG and VS- probably Gambhir as he is younger. Just seems to be creeping back into some form, but Sehwag is hardly setting run scoriung charts alight...Anyway think 6 is a bit too low for Sehwag, at 5 he would have a batsman to keep him company.
