Indian squad for the first 3 ODIs:

Mahendra Singh Dhoni (capt & wk), Virender Sehwag, Gautam Gambhir, Suresh Raina, Yuvraj Singh, Rohit Sharma, Yusuf Pathan, Harbhajan Singh, Zaheer Khan, Munaf Patel, Ishant Sharma, Pragyan Ojha, RP Singh, Virat Kohli, M Vijay


No idea what the XI is going to look like. Can someone please tell me what happened to Utthapa, Chawla and Pathan? And who is this Ojha character? is Bhajji the only spinner in the squad?
 
Why are they only playing 2 tests?
 
I would have liked to see the test first and then the one-dayers as the Indian team is already in the test mode.
 
2 tests is ridiculous considering that this one of the best test series on the calendar.

Arguably the 2nd and 3rd best test playing nations (SA probbly better then England on current form).

7 ODI's, who gives a shite about that?

Uthappa's been a bit shit recently, probably dropped.

Ojha's a left arm spinner. Plays for Deccan. I don't think he's anything special, though. I'd have liked to have seen Mishra instead.

Why is Kohli in the squad? How is he making so many of the squads named? He looks nothing special whenever I've seen him.
 
Also, WHAT THE feck has happened to Pathan?

I thought that guy was going to end up being someone special, and that was even before I saw him batting (and playing well - in the games I saw) at no 3...

What's his deal?
 
I take it the games are going to be played in India?

If so, where? And how are the wickets shaping up? Going to be a big difference to what the Pommy lads are used to, haha no green-tops up that way!

Should be a cracking series and I bloody wished we got it to FTA, love watching these sides play.

The money backers.

The broadcasters.

Overused as a batsman and it effected his bowling form. Not sure if he's injured now though.
