Watson seems a bit busy, so lets get started with the Indian ATG XI. Openers seems a good place to start.
Kindly select any two of the following

Sunil Gavaskar
Vijay Merchant
Virender Sehwag
Navjot Sidhu
Gautham Gambhir

Gavaskar, Sehwag

Sunil Gavaskar
Virender Sehwag

Gavaskar
Sehwag

Sunil Gavaskar
Virender Sehwag

Gavaskar, Merchant.

Sunil Gavaskar
Vijay Merchant

Sehwag just seems like a walking wicket againts these high quality attacks.

Agreed.

As much as I love the man, I find it hard to see him fare better than Merchant against an ATG attack. Merchant's record in England also helps.

Gavaskar, Merchant.

The best non-english opener, and an Indian great with an excellent record, especially in first class. Looks like Sehwag might get picked over him though =/

Fry on Merchant (soon after Sutcliffe retired):

`Let us paint him white and take him with us to Australia as an opener.'

Is that an offcial vote and if it is I assume he is to be paired with Gavaskar?

Yep.

Sehwag
Gavaskar

I'm not going to be biased by Sehwag's rather crappy last 2-3 years and vote......

Sunil Gavaskar
Virender Sehwag

Been a hectic last 2 weeks but things are much quieter now. So I'm happy to take over from here kyear if you like. Up to you, just let me know.
