The following line up is desirable: Gautam Gambhir, Robin Uthappa, Rahul Dravid, Sachin, Saurav, Dhoni, Kartik, Zahir Khan, Anil Kumble or Piyush Chawla, RP Singh & VRV Singh. 12th Man : VVS Laxman Reserve : Ishant Sharma. Wasim Jaffer's failure in both the innings goes to prove that the only opening batting combination emerged happens to be Robin & Gautam. I think we should not disturb this combination as this one has performed better. The middle order looks pretty solid with Dhoni, Kartik, Saurav, Sachin, Dravid in more or less set positions, one wonders about chances of Laxman.
