IMO Ajinkya will be in contention for a place in the squad in all formats. There are others who have scored lots of runs in Ranji but that has been only for current season. Ajinkya and Shikhar have done well over lot of domestic tournaments in India and across various formats. They also have more LIST A experience than other top scorers of this Ranji season. Both are brilliant fielders as well.

Mukund?I must say I wasnt impressed with his technique in the West Indies and England although he showed a bit of fighting spirit.
When I first saw Vijay bat,I liked the look of him.He had a solid technique and looked a decent,organised player.But ever since he has started playing T20 he is chasing balls outside the off stump and getting out.His defense has become non existent.Jaffer has previously done well in SA and England and he has got a good technique but is perhaps too old now.
Any others?
But I do agree that Sehwag should move down the order.I can assure you that not too many opposition spinners would be happy with that.
Rahane can open, Sehwag can bat lower down.
No he isnt an opener.A 22 year old who doesnt even open for his state side cant be asked to open for his country particularly when they are in such a bad state.
