India's Test squad for Australia

The Selectors announced the Test squad for Australia and there definitely were some surprises and questions.

Virendra Sehwag - Now why has he made it into the team? Will he play at the expense of Kaarthik? If he does play then does that mean Yuvraj will be on bench while Viru will play? Now which brave person will take that decision!!! Still lets not forget Viru had all those successes as an opener because he dared to open (he was a middle order bat to start with) ... so here's a puzzle for Kumble to solve

Wasim Jaffer, Rahul Dravid, Sachin Tendulkar and Mahendra Singh Dhoni (wk) walk into the middle order.

VVS Laxman - He was on the line but with a strong performance against pakistan and his fluency he made it...Who can forget that Adelaide knock!

Saurav Ganguly - Now he is the player i was sure was living on borrowed time. After all since his comeback, despite looking good, he was just getting 40s and 50s...But what a character!!! He has audacity and more than his knocks, his audacity is needed against the Aussies! Cheerio ganguly

Yuvraj Singh - Dravid has to open if he is to fit in...I think the batsman to be left out in the middle order (sachin, dravid, laxman, ganguly) should be decided by draw of lots!!! Unless someone gets conveniently injured.

India looks bad in the bowling department. munaf and sree are injured, Zaheer and RP are okay...but one injury will badly tilt the ship. Ishant, despite his one innings showing, and Pankaj Singh are unknown factors. So Zaheer, Kumble and RP will carry the bowling burden.
