yeah, by no means is gambhir the automatic opener ... he's only shown great potential so far, not many huge innings of substance to secure his spot.Pratyush said:I would love to see Jaffer in as a fan.
But there is a case for both - continuity for Gambhir, superb form for Jaffer.
I dont know why you are alleging me on a discussion of Indian test opener and how you can assume Gambhir is the test opener along with Sehwag. Gambhir hasnt been performing in tests. That is what he has done wrong if you want to know.
And he would have to perform to remain in the side if he is given a run despite his poor test perforance so far.
(pratyush, the chappell comment wasn't that literal, of course they will consult dravid .. i was just relating how tough this decision is and the fact that chappell is a very decisive man imo)
