I think Ganbhir should certainly open. Sehwag should be thrown out. And maybe, Sachin can open with Gambhir. Ganguly should come at no. 3

I'd go for Tendulkar and Ganguly...I think they the best opening pair India ever had

^ Man, Gambhir got a duck yesterdat..what shame

The problem with Indian players is that no one's consistent. They're all talanted, but if they become more consistant most of our troubles will diappear!

Tendulkar and Ganguly are best opener .. but as team demand one required to play at lower level to balance team so i think best combination with india can go ahead in world cup is Tendulkar and Sehwag .. as they played many inning with each other .. and given a good start in the more innings ...

i know Sehwag is not performing well now and currently going through bad patch .. but definitely he will come back again in team by playing good cricket at ranaji level ..

No doubt its Tendulkar-Ganguly but after today's match...Utthapa-Ganguly are good too!

Tendulkar is best when coming in at number 3 or 4...especially playing in the middle overs w/the spinners
