Yes I am one of Balaji's fans, he is certainly better than Agakar and Zaheer so he should be in the team. He had a very good tour of Pakistan in 2004 and it was a suprise that he wasn't picked.
He can be a very dangerous bowler when the conditons suit him, as he can swing and seam the ball both ways, some of the deliverys he sent dwon in 2004 against Pakistan were jaffers! He beats the bat many times and is unlucky not to get as mnay wickets as Pathan.
We need Balaji back, his partnership with Pathan is very good and they both must play for us in the world cup '07.

Both of these bowlers are the fastest in the country and have very good records in domestic cricket.
SS Paul has an average of 23 with 169 wickets! That is a very good bowling average for an Indian bowler on bland Indian picthes which offer nothing to seam bowlers. He can be very good on these picthes because he hits the deck hard and he is also enjoys bowling long spells, he could be in the side for another spinner in Tests bowling as a 'workhorse'.
What I have heard of VRV Singh is that he uses his pace very well to trouble the batsmen but must learn to bowl line and lentgh. Once he learns to bowl with control, India will be happy to select their first bowler that can bowl consistantly over 90+.
