Re: Pick the India Team that will play T1

I too think India will play seven "bats" - and to do this and still play 4
bowlers means Dasgupta plays.  After the two warmup games Kumble has made
sure of a spot - which, cansidering the WACA pitch, eliminates Bhajji.  Of
the seamers Pathan has marginally impressed, Agarkar has been "economical"
while Balaji has been horrible, and so we have a quandary - play three left
arm seamers or two plus Agarkar (who imho will be murdered by Hayden,
Katich, Gilchrist, etc).  I would pick Pathan although the brains trust will
likely go for Aggie because of his "batting" capability.  So:

Ramesh, Sehwag, Dravid, Sachin, Laxman, Ganguly, Dasgupta, Agarkar, Kumble,
Zaheer, Nehra.
