NEW DELHI: It will be back to business for the national selectors after the end of the impasse India's participation in the Champions Trophy in England next month. Every batsman from the last ODI team has had a decent IPL so far even though none has been close to taking it by storm. This scenario may favour Rahane.If there is any question mark over offie R Ashwin's fitness, then left-arm wrist spinner Kuldeep Yadav could get a look in as back-up spinner. "The question is whether the selectors back the seven batsmen formula (not including the all-rounders in Ravindra Jadeja, Ashwin and Hardik Pandya) or they want an extra attacking spinner in Kuldeep. Virat Kohli (captain) has always wanted to attack with the ball," a source close to the selectors told TOI on Sunday.
