I read an article somewhere reputable (I wish I remember where - but it wasn't written by an Indian, an Aussie/Englishman I think) where it mentioned how Dhoni had made some 'inspired' bowling change in the last test bringing on Harbhajan when Hayden was going well in the 12th over to replace Zaheer Khan. He even mentioned that Zaheer had gone for 44 runs in his 6 overs.
I think you should take another look at Zaheer Khan's opening spell, if you have access to it. Most of the boundaries he gave up came from edges around the slips and one, off a Ponting edge, should have been a simple catch for Dravid.
