Well, now India has a pace attack that ranks well in experience. Irfan Pathan, Zaheer Khan and Ajit Agarkar all have played quite a good amount of matches and can gel well together when they play in the same match! Obviously any one of these bowlers have to be entrusted the job of drying up the runs when the going gets tough (as it is expected against Pakistan!). But the problem is, all these bowlers arent good containers except for Pathan but only to some extent! Zaheer and Agarkar are wicket takers and dont mind going for some runs if they get wickets!
I feel RP Singh can fill that slot! First test, the top three pacers should play! If Pakistan show good signs of batting agains them, then either of Zaheer or Agarkar should be dropped to make way for RP Singh who can choke up the runs by bowling to a good line and length!
I am happy with the pace attack that is touring Pakistan! Only if VRV Singh is blooded soon and is ready to go, we will have an even more better bowling attack! On the spinning front, we have to let go our reluctant acceptance of Kartik! I am not impressed with him. We should try Piyush soon and blood him too. Both Piyush and VRV can handle the bat very well.
