The selectors chose a 14-member India that is not too different from that which was suggested on this blog a few days back. The 15-member side that we had suggested included Irfan Pathan. Gautam Gambhir was left out.
Interestingly, Dilip Vengsarkar, the chairman of the selection team, handed the team out in a media release and did not address the media as he normally does.
The team is (perhaps in batting order):
Dinesh Karthik
Wasim Jaffer
Rahul Dravid
Sachin Tendulkar
Sourav Ganguly
VVS Laxman / Yuvraj Singh
Mahendra Singh Dhoni
Anil Kumble (capt)
Harbhajan Singh / Murali Kartik
Zaheer Khan
Sreesanth / RP Singh
– Mohan

By naming Dhoni as Vice Captain, at last the selectors have set some direction

this is not right … R.P Should be bowling permanently but not showing like this in extras.. he is far better than Zaheer. so, why not him to be playing in the match for permanently…
