See, if it comes off...then India will pose a very very serious threat to australia!!
Otherwise, instead of one regular seamer we can get in Pathan and make him open...
But if you want to beat Australia, you have to go with 3 seamers and 2 spinners!! You can't beat them with 4 bowlers!! And if you go with 5 bowlers, then you would need a makeshift opener to partner either Sehwag or Jaffer...thats the bottomline!!

I think you are passionately tring to come up with a winning combo. But think about it u are making a big mistake there is no such thing as "if it comes off"..even middle order batsemn dont try to open in tests. So forget opening a tail ender against aus in aus. Are you kidding me?? So try to stay real in your quest. The idle for me would be Karthik Jaffar Dravid Sachin Laxman Yuraj Pathan Zaheer Sreesanth Kumble Harbhajan Now I got you 5 bowlers and openers with recent form in foriegn conditions and the experienced and yuvraj in the middle. Dhoni has to wait and compete against Yuraj as a full time batsmen or against karthik as opener.

Sorry Sehwag is out of form. I knwo he did well last time we went there. but we cant leave in the pasts. Yes if in the recent developments if he gets a chance and performs well in shows a sign of come back in ODI and if Karthik fails against pak. Yes you might see him in aus as opner instead of karthi and then Yuvraj/Gunguly or Pathan have to make way for Dhoni in the middle.
