What options Dhoni has now…..? Should Shikhar be dropped and Gautam Gambhir be given a chance…? Yes, he has no other choice but to try him weather he likes him or not. But his major dilemma is Ashwin who doesn't have an impressive overseas record. Even if one goes by the Manchester pitch which supports spin bowling, will England which don't have a quality spinner in their squad, take the risk of removing the grass? Despite Moeen Ali, whom many consider as a club level bowler, taking 6 wickets in third test, the strength of England is their fast bowling attack led by James Anderson. So one can't see any reason why England wold not prefer a green top at Manchester. However if Dhoni chooses to Include him for the fourth test that begins from Thursday, who sits out….? Rohit…..? No…..Pujara….big NO……than who…..? Nobody….the only change he can afford to make is just one and that is play Gautam because Team India have already burnt their boat by giving away the advantage to England who would be obviously on high after win, in the third test.
