Re: Mar 9 - warm up matches today
I am not sure Pathan in place of Agarkar is good Idea. Agarkar has been a much improved bowler and has bowled briliantly during last one year. I will not feel comfortable to drop him to being a guy who bowling is still is not up to mark. His forst over today was 13 ball long.
On Kumble, I am not sure of his run checkign ability in middle overs(20-40). Harbhajan has been very sucessful in it. I have rarely seen him getting hit. He is pretty safe bowler to turn in a figure like 10-1-40-1..That is what is needed at that stage.
