I would like Virat to play 6 + 5 combo.
with Saha as one of the 6?
Saha can bat in these conditions . Then we have Ashwin who has test hundreds and 50's. Jaddu. Virat has played 6+5 before and this series will again be ideal opportunity to play that combo.
think he depend on the conditons if the pitches are flat 5 bowlers if the pitch turning and expected to take wicket 4 bowlers with Rohit playing.
Those days when Saurav used to open bowling in some tests and we could play 3 spinners.
Rohit will not get to bat in 10 innings. But our bowler is very likely to bowl in 10 innings.
think the idea is that they will pack the side with batsman so they are more likely to score 300 in most innings and outbat england even if they lose wickets and with jadeja and ashwin capable of bowling all day they don't need 5 wicket plus think kohli realised having more option when not required is pointless, he did lose a test in sri lanka because Ashwin and jadeja bowled less over than required and over bowled 3rd spinner and pace men.
TBH what ever india goes with they will get 20 wickets and be so more threatening and economical than england will do.
