There will be changes in Team India.Shewag,Progan and Vorat kholi are the new faces.Zaheer will be back to lead the seamer. Is this change bring good luck for Team India? Its a do or die match for them,if they lost they will loose the series and the crown of number test team in the world. Hope this change will bring glory for India.What do you say?

It is nice to see replacements for injured players..i would definitely send rohit sharma in place of virat kohli..he is youngster and also performing well in odis but in tests,he is not as good as rohit sharma who is experienced than him and also a class player in test in middle order.i am hoping that sehwag n gambhir will open inning and zahir will be ack also.so it will be good team and also if possible play with 4 seamers that will be great though it has never happened in indian team recently.

Yap,Rohit sharma could also be a good choice,but Kholi got the call.Let see how he perform in the middle. I am not sure about Gambir,cause he is not still fit.Dravid could open with Shewag and could be a good combination as Dravid is in good form and getting runs. I think they would not go for 4 seamers.So,one has to go.What do you think?who is going to leave best 11?I think its may be Sreesanth though he bowled well in 1st innings in last test

agree with you if india has to leave 1 fast bowler,it would be sree because though pravin kumar doesn't have speed he takes some wickets.i would be happy to have sree,ishant n zaheer as 3 fast bowlers

I agree with you also.But whatever I read on newspaper and cricinfo,it seems Sreesanth may going to be out.But,I saw him last innings he gave really some nice out-swing and yorker and gave some bounce also.Praven is also,but he has a very good line and length and he proves him self as one of the best choice.

Forgot to add about the inclusion of Pragyan Ojha and Virat Kohli to the team. This might be the added strength as Ojha is coming after a long gap and Virat is back from the Test series in West Indies. Hope that experience will be handy when he plays in England. My team would be as follows: Sehwag, Gambhir, Dravid, Sachin, Raina, Kohli, Dhoni, Zaheer, Praveen, Amit Mishra, Munaf Patel. I would like to rest Ishant and pick Munaf as he swings the ball very well than Ishant, and pick Amit Mishra ahead of Ojha due to the fact that the England players do not do well playing the leggie.

agree with you.but one thing is that Patel and Praven is same style bowlers and thats why one should be there.Ishanth shows how good he is in bouncy pitch and had a tremendous performance in West-indies. Ojha would be more handy than Amit,cause England got lots of right handed batsmen and Peterson is weak to play against left handed spin

Hi dabangladehi, The significant players in the names you have mentioned above are Sehwag and Zaheer other 2 may not get a chance in playing eleven. We have to see first of all how fit these 2 players are. They are coming back from injury. As far as Sehwag is concerned, he is playing after a big gap and likely to be rusted but nothing can be said about player like him he could be in top form from word go. If these 2 players are fit and in top form, then that will certainly change the mood of team India. we can fairly expect team India to keep their No.1 position by winning at least one and drawing another. this is an uphill task considering the form and confidence of team England.

Yap,buddy.You well said.But we can hope for the best.We saw last time in South Africa tour that how come Team India turn. Obviously they will tern back and they turn back when their back at the wall. Well it could be quite tough for others team to fight back in English condition.But India is number and they have to prove it and its the high time to show their ability and power.

Hello dabangdehi, I think it will be better for India that these player are comming becuuse Harbhajan is out of form and Yuvraj is injured so Shewag will be best oppurtinity for India becaue the opening pair of India is not performing so Shewag will give winning path to India and in middle order Virat is a best player and in bolling Zaheer is back bon and Pragyan will help to Zaheer so good luck to India.

Ya,I think this opening pair is going to work for India.Shewag and dravid will start,so shewag will attack and dravid will do what he used to do.This can change situation of the match.If they bulid a good partner ship,then this time history will be different.

Hello dabangladehi, I am still not sure if INDIA will win with these changes because the conditions there in ENGLAND is pretty different as all of their bowlers are doing well and we are yet to find the solution to pacers. But hope for the best and see what Sehwag does in ENGLAND.As this is our do or die match if we loose it series will be lost and the dream to become No - 1 test team will be broken with it.

You really told the fact.but what can we do without hoping for the best.We know about our team strength and they can come back as we saw in south africa. India has Scahin,Dravid,Shewag,Laxamn who are legendary beatsmen and you will not get other batsmen in other team like them

Hi, It has been a disastrous start of the series so far for India, very bad to know this being a huge fan of Indian Cricket team, nothing can be done now. gone is gone. There were injuries that hurt the team the most and we could not find the right combination in the final eleven. However, for the third test, we might be back with the team that has tasted the success quite often in recent times. I am glad that Sehwag and Gambhir are back in the team, but not sure how much is Zaheer fit. Will be eagerly waiting for the news that comes from the Indian team about the availability of Zaheer for the remainder of the series. One of the foremost reasons that has cost us the test is that we have won the toss and elected to field instead of batting first. It is generally the theme where the captain winning the toss elects batting rather than taking the field. Our team is said to have the formidable batting line up and still have taken up fielding, Dhoni has gambled here that has not gone with him all the times it has happened earlier. Hopefully, we can bat first in the next two matches and put up a good total and can defend well.

yes i hope they manage to do something better than what they did in the two test match. as said by man, it is easy to get at the top. but to maintain the top position is the most important thing. and to do that india need to win and win against good team in foreign soil. then only can they maintain the top position. England on the other hand player really well.

The inclusion of Sehwag in the batting order will definitley have its impact on Indian batting line-up. I'm sure he can make a huge difference along with his favourite opening partner, Gambhir. If the openers do well India can eye a big score. The spinners in this series couldn't do much and we can't expect Ojha in the playing eleven. Ofcourse Zaheer Khan will strengthen the bowling department and also it will be a relief for the other bowlers.

It seems Ojha is going to play as most of the English batsmen are right handed. Shewag and Ghambir is the right pair for opening,but both of them still in doubt about their fitness.Hope they will recover soon and bring a good start for India.
