Just imagine this. If Sehwag opens for India against minnows Bangladesh and scores a century, he will keep his place in the Indian XI until the completion of the World Cup, even if scores less than 10 in other matches. That's going to boomerang on India. Robin Uthappa is a better choice for opening instead of Sehwag. Sehwag did not do himself any good even in warm-up matches. Bowlers have sorted him out. May be against Australia or Pakistan, he may score some runs.
I choose Shewag & Pathan Instead of Karthik & Munaf Patel bcoz these two player have lost their confident & form. Before Starting crucial game against Sri Lanka they should come to the form which was good news for india. Where India's batting depth is solid than other team. I choose Kumble than Harbhajan bcoz he is more effective than harbhajan in slow pitch.And Schin, Yuvraj or Sehwag can be used as a fifth bollower. Here is lot of option for Dravid Wether he played Kumble or Harbhajan, Pathan or Patel, Sehwag or Karthik, All the Best & my best wishes with bring the WC to India. Come on India ( East or West India is always the Best)
We should prefer Sachin at Number Three...Bcoz with D Indian Team win i will prefer Sachin's Record also...like Ponting n all are hitting century agains small teams..we should also give more time to sachin...means No. 3 position.

saudbhai karthik to nikal ke pathan ko lo... agar 6 superhit batsmans runs nahi bana sake to karthik kya kar lega yaar... zubair
Robin Utthappa and Irfan Pahtan should play. Pathan in form raises India's chances quite a bit. Sehwag even in his erratic best will win you only one game out of form (And this is when he is in form).
However given captains faith in Sehwag, he is more likely to play in place of Pathan.
