Who is the extra bowler and who is the extra batsman ? Munaf or Balaji ? Who is the batsman ? Karthik ? He wont play in the XI by any means. Lest MS is injured. But if he is in the team he gives a backup keeper option, which is not needed in India.
3 pacers in India would not be good option. 2 spinners would be needed and Mishra would certainly play all 3 Tests.
The extra batsmen and the only choice available for them is Badrinath.
3 spinners wont be a good idea to be in the team cos only 2 would be playing. I believe 2 batsmen should be named in the team. And hopefully bright performers of the domestic season do come in.
