Can never be to sure with Watson's body TBH. He hasn't proven yet he can be depended on to bowl long spells without breaking down. So i'd keep Hopes in the side @ 7 for now. (maybe even Henriques down the line as well)

Watto's really in form with the ball atm. Got that niggly line going.

Do you think it's just a case of timing, that he's in form when he plays there, or more conditions suiting him or something else?

Uh... yeah. How could I have not thought of that?

A bit of both, Watto tends to bowl rubbish when he comes back, and gets a lot better as time goes on and he bvuilds confidence in his ability to not fall apart but conditions in subcon really seem to favour him for some reason.
Was just about to post that it's even, but I guess we're ahead with that wicket. Get Dhoni early and it's all over.

Would have to disagree with this. There's no reason why Gambhir and Raina can't put something substantial together, they're quality batsmen.
Dhoni early would help.

Yeah... I guess he's also got a lot of experience playing in India now.
Voges really is a handy addition to the side if he can bowl like this through the series... especially if Hopes's injury keeps him out for a few games, which I would have thought it will given the way he was limping.

No it wouldn't. You're forgetting Haddin was quickly becoming our best ODI bat before his injury and should be there no questions asked. He shouldn't be playing at 7 either, as has been shown previously, he's not great in that position.

Right about Mishra, but I don't exactly think India are too bothered with Voges just yet.

No. But Virat Kohli was.
I didn't see Harbhajan bowl, but it looks like Hauritz has been much better.

I'm surprised the commentators were saying that they were 'doing it easy' against the spinners. The run rate was creeping up if anything.

I called for him to be dropped during the Champions Trophy and linked to a piece in my blog which shows he has been useless last 2 years.
Surprised Praveen Kumar went for these many runs.

Great looks like we'll be making it 3 then.

I'm totally against the thoughts of the commentators here. Australia favourites for me.
