You will win for sure and the Team can insured for the lowest premium. Take both the spinners and Irfan as well. Do not play Agarkar and Shreesant as both are not steady players and can be brittle.
Pathan and Sehwag should both play in Indian team throughout the world cup...both are good allrounders and allrounders give depth to India's batting line up thats why I always say try to include allrounders instead of only batter or bowler..
One more thing I would like to add here that Sehwag dont have the versatility of shots which Sachin have so there is no use of Sehwag at no. 5 or 6...we already saw that in recent series that Sehwag was not comfertable there at no. 5..
India should use Dhoni at No. 3 position as a surprise tactic not only in this match but in some matches of super 8 also or they may send Irfan at no. 3 provided if they include him in final 11, which Dravid should do..
Mantra to win todays match and world cup..
Use Pathan, sehwag and Dhoni as a surprise weapons...India will definitely reach the semis and after that ANY TEAM CAN WIN THE CUP..!
my squad for the first match against bangladesh 1.sachin 2.uthappa 3.sourav 4.yuvaraj 5.dravid 6.ms.dhoni 7.pathan 8.agakar 9.harbajan 10.zaheer 11.mun af patel, to be honest throw sehwag out till he gain his consistencey and for dravid dont show any gimmicks by adding karthick.he is not mediocre.
Pathan and Sehwag should both play in Indian team throughout the world cup...both are good allrounders and allrounders give depth to India's batting line up thats why I always say try to include allrounders instead of only batter or bowler..remember 1983 win..??

Pathan is not a complete allrounder these days..your brother and your mate said play in form players..pathan is not capable of bowling economically or take wickets consistently.. why paly him..rather play a complete batsman or a pure bowler for him

May be he could fail on the odd day in bowling but he will give you solid 30-35 runs in 7 out of 10 innings...that you can say for sure but the same thing you can't say for Utthappa..what say mate..??
