the fast bowling line up looks pretty settled in tests w/ lots of options but the 2nd spinner's position is up for grabs, imo
Bhajji is doubtful for the Ist test but even if he were available, i guess he has not been in the wkt-taking form of late .... Chawla is coming out as a promising option .... what are the other options?
Assuming that you have to pick two spinners, whom would you play as the 2nd spinner to partner Captain Kumble?
My vote goes to Chawla for a place at Chennai .... There is bounce in that pitch, if i m not wrong, with the ball turning a little sharper [unlike the pitch at A'bad where everything happens in a slow motion], his leg-spin could just be what doctored ordered for India
