Gautam Gambhir has a very good cricketing brain. He has the temperament to play long innings. He should play regularly for India at the opener slot. This will do for him and the country a world of good. He should be partnered either by Sehwag or Wasim Jaffer in Tests. He has potential to be a very good test opener for India. He has the flair of Ajit Wadekar!

gambhir will replace ganguly. he is the best opener for india if sachin retires. ganguly is out of the team already. so, it is the best option & he is also in the good form. now. he is also the best feilder of india.

i do agree with you gambhir has good cricketing brain....he is agressive,has good technique,can play spinners very well... but at times he faces difficulty facing the new ball...once he sees of the new ball he is unstoppable.... he also worked a lot on his shot selction...he used to throw away his wicket after getting good start during his early phase of career..... i think he should be opening with sehwag in the tests...

You are absolutely right. We are in search of a reliable opener for the last several years especially after the exit of sunil gavaskar. And so i think this young man has some stuff needed for the opening slot and so he needs to be groomed. He has the calibre of becoming a very good opener and so he should be given chance in the comming matches too even if he fails sometimes.
