Who will open the Indian batting with Sehwag?
Interesting question, right? It’s all around. Everyone is talking about this issue. So, who should open? Let’s look at the contenders:
tting the youn
1. VVS Laxman: Some experience as opener in Tests. Bad record as opener though. Hasn’t opened the innings in a long time but does a good job at No. 3. Attacking once he gets going and he might be able make good use of the first 15 overs. However, suspect running between the wickets might cost India.
2. MS Dhoni: Probably the most likely to open. Attacking batsman and just scored 88 in a practice game. Opening with Sehwag would mean attack from both ends as far as India’s batting goes. Also good at No. 3 in case he comes in and India needs a move on.
3. Yuvraj Singh: In my opinion, least likely to open. He best suits the late middle order as he can come in towards the end of the match and score quick runs.
4. Suresh Raina: The Indians might pull off a surprise by getting the youngster to open. Will put tremendous pressure on the debutant but could also be a great chance for him to prove his talent. Again, an attacking player.
Who do I think will open? I vote for Dhoni. He is in good form and attacks from the word go. As far as India’s chances in the tournament go, I can say for sure it will be India-SL in the final. Predicting the winner is tough 
I think most probably Dhoni will open, the reason for this is, lakshman is test player and he is like very slow player so cant send him to open the innigs..
Yuvraj, they cant send him because we need player like yuvraj in middle order, so when everyone is not playing good then yuvraj is last hope to save the team…
Suresh, he is a new guy so I dont think team will allow him to open the innings in so much presure but yes, if his perfomance is good enough in his earlier matches i.e. domestic ones then they might allow him to open the innigs…

Hehe Dhoni did open but no use. Like you said, top order failed miserably. I hope they improve against the Windies. They have an inexperienced side and should be easy to beat.
But then, this is TEAM INDIA
Well lets hope they do win… otherwise we would be in a bad shape for sure
Yeah .. hope we win the West Indies match and save our ass
They pulled a fast one by sending Kaif to open. Another Sehwag failure. Ganguly set to return next match. Kaif and Yuvraj not exactly playing well. Our problems are just beginning
