After the triumph over Pakistan, India faces a selection dilemma for the final against Sri Lanka on Saturday , the issue being whether to drop one of the three pacers who performed brilliantly in the semifinal to make way for off-spinner R Ashwin.
After the semifinal victory at Mohali last night, Indian captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni acknowledged he had misread the wicket ands left out Ashwin to have three seamers plus Harbhajan Singh. As it turned out the three , Zaheer Khan, Ashish Nehra and Munaf Patel,bowled splendidly taking two wickets each.
The dilemma for the Indian selection think-tank would be whether to leave out Nehra and bring in Ashwin who had done well in the two matches preceding the high-voltage game against Pakistan.
