- Sreesanth - Why he is in the team is a big suspense? He has played just one match (Irani Trophy) after his county stint. Of course, one more Ranji match where he didnt get any wickets. More than his form, his temper and temperament is a big question. Of course, if Zaheer and Ishant back & 3 spinners in the squad, he will be a backup option.
- Vijay - Maybe the selectors want to give him more big-match experience as well as backup for any injury scares to Sehwag and Gambhir.
- Badrinath - Similarly, backup option to the middle-order. Dont think he will play as well.
The choice of spinners - there are 3 of them - will be Harbhajan and Amit Mishra. Though, I would prefer Pragyan Ojha instead. Looks like he will be the one dropped.
The Indian team would start as the favorites - for that, they will have to leave the Oz series debacle behind.

Conspiracy theory: Maybe this is why/how Sreesanth got picked:

(For missing the Kerala Ranji team practice session) "The reasons, Sreesanth cited in an email to the KCA secretary, said that the cricketer wanted to attend Sabarimala and the wedding of Chief National Selector K Srikkanth's son."
Utterly butterly delicious ..... ? ;)
I just hope Sreesanth will be able to take full use of this golden opportunity and bounce back into the Indian side.
