I think thats the only option.. hes the most in-form bowler in india presently who has the ability to get the early break through.. agarkar can be considered to suit a similar role however; his line length and economy rate are not the greatest.. he will bowl 3 magic deliveries and one bad one which gets hit .. so the indian attack led by zaheer .. second bowler ajit agarkar/pathan and third wud be munaf .. spin wud be harbhajan.. and depending on the pitch we can play as many as 5 bowlers (given pathan is one of them). Honestly the bowling doesnt look lethal but I think it should be good enough to win the cup given our batsmen have a wonderful tournament.
Given the conditions in WI .. 250/275 wud be the average totals by all the good teams. and i am sure the team knows their limitations and have learnt their lesson from the 2003 WC final and wont get carried away especially Zaheer
