Indeed ! It is a trade-off played by the Selection committee chairman, Mr. Kiren More. Mounting pressure of inclusion of Ganguly gave Kiren More the much needed opportunity to include his blue eyed boy as a tread off. Sad! It is very distressing for the talented nearly flawless young wicketkeeper, Dinesh Kartik. Kartik's talent would thus slowly drain out by such cancerous regionalism in Indian cricket. Parthiv was a super flop and was given repeated chances that even sparked-off a controversy in the 3rd test against Australia (Nagpur Oct. 2004). The talent in Kartik should be respected. Parthiv Patel additionally benefits from politics, Kiran More, a Gujarat player is blatantly supporting Parthiv Patel or he has some relative in BCCI. But, what about Kiren More himself????? Probably he is the most controversial chairman of the selection committee Indian cricket has ever witnessed. Isnt it high time to drop him from the selection committee? Don't we need a minimum eligibility for such important positions?
