Indian bowlers should step up

S Dinakar, writing in the Hindu, says India's bowling line-up should receive a boost in friendlier conditions in Barbados. He adds that Piyush Chawla should be retained, for he has the attributes of a match-winner, while Ravindra Jadeja should make way for Zaheer Khan.

Jadeja is a handy bat, a wonderful fielder and a useful left-arm spinner but Chawla has the attributes of a match-winner. There were indications during India's match against South Africa that Chawla might be a success in the tournament.

The chances are that Harbhajan and Chawla could, as the tournament progresses, develop into a threatening spin combination. India needs to back match-winners.
