Re: ashwin should be sent higher

He should bat above Dhoni for sure.
I care less about Ganguly, but he was absolutely right when he said Dhoni is probably the bext player in the world in ODI, but doesn't deserve a place in Test team..

Yes I too think that India will eventually win.. 250 odd would have been a challenging chase against a superior team like SA or Australia.. I don't the Kiwis have the wherewithal to bowl India out within that total on a track that is still playing true..
Happy to read the comment from Virat.But,don't forget that India has to play the 4th innings,which is a difficult task.Indian batsmen could not face Southee.Gautam,Sachin,Pujara failed.Sehawag is not consistent.Can Virat,Raina & Dhoni take India to win this match with some help from Ashwin?It would be interesting to see the rest of the match.Can the match finish on 4th day?OR will it go till the last day?.....Good luck India!!

Gambir and Raina are not test class still unfortunately. Sehwag is swashbuckling, so cant be removed in middle of series. With the compact batting skill of Ashwin, why cant he replace Gambir as opener with Sehwag. Ashwin had the credential of opening for A team and Ranji. He shows good temperament with Southees bouncers and middling the ball well.
Raina shld be replaced by Badri. Virat be 2 down, Pujara be 1 down,Badri be 3 down, Tendulkar as 4down and work with tailenders.
