Oh,now suddenly Parthiv has become a batsman. If he is a batsman then why was he not included in the last match. It seems Laxman's injury has turned Parthiv into a batsman overnight. Is nessesity the mother of invention? So what was Parthiv all these days? Make up your mind, you stupid captain. By the way what is Parthiv's highest score in one day internationals? And this team was considered the hot favourites by the Indian media to win the Asia cup. What a bunch of morons!
with the poor form of sehwag of late it would be a wise decision to put him in at number 3 or maybe number 4. Ganuly and Tendulkar should open the innings-it is tru that they too are nowhere near thier best but they have shown they can make runs even if it is at a slow rate. Pakistan's malik is a simiar player to Kaif. I think what the pakistani cricket team did by putting malik in at number 3 shows they are willing to experiment. Team India should also consider puttin Kaif in at number 3 as he has a great technique and similar reaults could be shown for Kaif as they have for Malik.
Seven batsmen, Yeh we know nothing new in it, does this is good enough to ensure win against sri lanka, probably not, Saurav can try to promote kaif at 4/5 th position, and bring down sahwang from opening slot. All the best.
