sehwag should be made to sit out until he proves in domestic cricket his form, dont just take him to the team only because of his past age old records, let him prove like ganguly to deserve a place,
presently openers Robin uthappa, Ganguly & even Ghambir are doing well.
Now start relying on youngsters build a team India- Not a team dandya ( what we saw in west indies & south Africa against fast bowlers) to dream of world cup.

balls . scream the same way when they get screwed there in west indies. Remember w.indies tour
it is a good news that ganguly is back in openers slot. he had made three 100 in the last world cup as no3 slot and 1 -100 in england as opener now if he perform well as an opener we can be sure india will win 60% with only his play and the rest can do the 40%
I think its the right combination,only 1 spinner shud be played, zaheer, agarkar, one spinner, pathan, tendulkar, yuvraj and sehwag (if selected) can bowl.
----Playing 11----------- Robin Utthappa Souvrav Ganguly Rahul Dravid Sachin Tendulkar Yuveraj Singh M.S. Dhoni Dinesh Karthik Harbhajan Singh Ajit Agarkar Zaheer Khan V.R.V Singh ------Bench Players------ Anil Kumble V.V.S Laxman Joginder Singh Gautam Gambhir -------Reason for VRV singh------- Its important to have extra resources in fast bowling Team can alternately switch between kumble and vrv singh...depending on the opposition and the pitch condition.
Select sehwag for srilanka series and decide to include for the wc after his performance against lankans. dont forget his dashling shots and offspin breaks that he did it for india against aussies and pakistanis. give him a oppurtunity for veeru. best of luck veeru
