Manish Pandey or Ajinkya Rahane as opener?

[tweaker]

Pandey is ideal at no 4

[Ankit_sharma03]

Pandey is no 4. 

Rahane well his bating is best for opening

[WC2011INDIA]

I think Rahane might lose his spot now. Dhawan is back in form. Rohit is doing very well. Virat is virat. Rahane even when in form doesn't capitalize. So many half centuries but hasn't been able to convert except 2 knocks. Moreover, he is not a finisher. 

Feel for him. Oh and Pandey needs to be selected for t20s.

Damn!! What a way to seal your place in the side.

Pandey is defo a good option for #5 ,rahane at #4 ,we need a hitter to stay in the end.pandey can score quick and off course pandya will be drafted in soon for rishi .

Pandya,pandey,even raina is  a good lower order considering hitting

[Lannister]

Is Manish in T20 squad?

[WC2011INDIA]

Is Manish in T20 squad?

no.

My line up would be based on form of players

Dhawan

Rohit

Kohli

Rahane

Pandey

Pandya (all rounder)

Wk/batsman...have to find one fast

Bumrah

Ishant/umesh/Aaron/jadeja/ashwin/sran/rishi (choose 3 from these depending on pitch and opposition)

Bk sadly has regressed a lot since 2014 just like pk..

Rahane could certainly open. Dhawan is frustratingly inconsistent but also tends to score big from time to time.
