I think Yuvi,Sehwagh,Raina/Virat can manage 10 overs and if we go for allrounder then also they have to help for atleast 8 over so better not to keep all rounder unless we get real one like Irafan.

Cant really go with two relatively in experienced bowlers…… If selectors drop/rest Ishant then they must go in with 3 medium pacers. Btw no need to mention medium pacer cuz there IS NOT any one in our side who is genuinely quick. Less said abt ishant the better.
I would inclined to include PK in this line up in expense of Ojha (good for nothing just like another harbhjan) take out Virat Kohli and include Abhishek Nayar only to support the bowling unit and give more option to dhoni.
Sehwag Sachin Gambhir Raina Dhoni UV Nayar/Pathan Harbhjan (hate to name it but he is an automatic choice – unfortunate) PK Nehra Tyagi/Ishant
Rest to fill up in the 14 men squad would be Mishra, Pathank Ishant
If a person hungry for ages is given plentiful food, he would be unable digest it. 6 ODI series wins on a trot are similarly difficult to digest for Indian cricket fans. The greatest scare is that India may become no 1 by beating the Aussies. The best way to reach the comfort zone is to drop Dhoni for at one series. Things will become wholesome again and some order will be restored in Indian cricket. Good luck.
please give rest to dhoni for some while, and let him to learn how to bat... ishant sharma very much needed to be in rest. let harbajan be relaxed, if he is still aimless. vvs laxman should be considered of his performances against aussies. in the absence of zaheer, somebody like balaji n munaf patel is needed to support nehra in the pace dept. though munaf can only bowl but he is doin well in the current series. and rp singh, let him learn how to put his best efforts to 5o formats like his 20 format..

First You should give yourself a break..instead you send be sent to some Mental Checkup..else you won't talk about resting Dhoni and suggesting him to learn how to bat,,when whole world know he is ODI Batsman of the year consecutively since last 2 years.

some senior players (may b sachin) hv reported to bcci person ratnakar shetty that attitude of younsters in champs trophy was not good n they were just happy even after they lost their match to pak.
Extreme steps need to be taken by Dhoni, he needs to sack Harbhajan Singh for his often continous poor performance.Secondly why is he not handing over the ball to Sachin Tendulkar? he should make sure that the team jell together like Fevicol which is surely not happening with the Indian team
