Preview: India Vs West Indies 1st Test Match

Ding dong... Purists. The real game starts tomorrow. One team is playing depleted side intentionally and other is forced to dues to idiotic board. Take Gayle out you get half of the WI team. I can already see them getting bogged down and crawling at 2 RPO. They would breath a sigh of relief with the inclusion of Chanderpaul who can alone frustrate Indian bowler all day long. Indian's on the other hand have bee boosted by Dravid and VVS who needs no introduction.
Probable Squad India:
Abhinav Mukund
Murali Vijay
Rahul Dravid
Virat Kohli
VVS Laxman
Suresh Raina
MS Dhoni
Harbhajan Singh
Praveen Kumar
Ishant Sharma
Amit Mishra

Abhinav Mukund and Virat Kohli both would play their debut test match. They are lucky to play against a poor WI. Two decades ago any youngster would shudder in his shoes if he's selected to debut against WI. Everyone knows Kohli but i dont think a lot of you are familiar with Mukund.
He's a left handed attacking opener. Quite young, just 21 years old. In 40
FC matches he's scored runs at an avg of 60 with 13 hundreds and a top score of 300*. So the talent is there. All he needs to do is apply it on International level.
