let sourav open with jaffer followed by rahul, laxman, dhoni, dinesh karthik, zaheer, kumble, vrv singh, harbhajan & munaf
since sachin and viru can't bat when the team needs them to perform the most we can do away with karthik and munaf.
i strongly feel irfan pathan is any time better than these two as atleast he is honest and sincere in whatever he does and not so care a damm attitude.
