Just looked him up - he's apparently played 12 ODI's before this one, and already has a ton to his name. His career strike rate of 105 is pretty bloody impressive too.

Shouldn't be anymore. Pandey at 4, Jadhav at 5 and Rohit can open with KL/Dhawan depending on who's in better form I reckon.

Big call I know, but this guy may be better than Tendulkar.
Best player I have ever seen

Maybe he'll pull a hamstring the night before the First Test

When you make a century off 65 balls with your skipper, I'd say you're making a fairly strong statement for staying in the side......
T20's just don't have the time for these masterfully crafted chases, Kohli and Jadhav arrested the momentum and counter punched brilliantly like a crescendo and didn't waver until the job was pretty much done, pity they both couldn't see it out
Brilliant chase, who would've thunk it at 60odd for 4.

Wow!!! ! have no love whatsoever for India, but credit where it's due -- they're a phenomenal cricket team right now.

Jadhav is a little cutie in his post-match interview. Great knock by him and well steered by Kohli again.
Said they honestly needed a miracle at 60/4 and they got it done. At full strength, India look really strong on paper. Death bowling is still the problem but it's not as bad as a couple of years ago.
Dhawan, Sharma, Kohli, Rahane, Dhoni, Jadhav, Pandya, Jadeja, Ashwin, Yadav, Bumrah.
That team would get do well in England for the Champions Trophy.

England are going to be really hard to beat in that tournament and then the World Cup.
Reckon India will struggle on the moving wickets
How is the CT in England again anyway. Wasn't the 2013 edition held there as well?

True they'd be strong favorites and rightly so.
That team could make the final though.

Rahane doesn't fit in that slot. He doesn't accelerate when it's necessary and doesn't rotate strike as per MSD. He belongs only on the top 3 position and 2 of those spots are already taken by Sharma and Kohli. So, either Rahane or Rahul should be the other opener. Not Dhawan. Someone like Manish Pandey can be at #4 or even Dhoni can be promoted to #4 and Pandey to #5. If Yuvraj does well in the remaining matches, he can be considered for that spot else it's game over for him.
And Yadav goes for runs in limited overs. Bhuvi might be another option. He bowled well in the death during IPL and he can bowl really well with the new ball.
