Selecting Jaffer is a good move but I wonder if he stands a chance against
Shoaib, Naved, Harmison, Jones and Flintoff.

I think Chopra deserves a chance with Ganguly not coming down on him
after every innings. If Jaffer plays fine, then good luck to him.

I believe Shoaib Malik can translate his OD performances into tests and
score well against India.

So far gambhir hasnt proved he has what it takes to succeed at the highest
level against quality opposition.
