It should not be considered as being sent back. Pathan is rather called back, to join his Ranji Team and get some match practice. He is as of now absolutely out of color as far as bowling is concerned. It is not this series alone but over past 6 - 7 months. It is a good move to have him spend some time with MRF Pace academy and his Ranji team and who knows, he may be back to his best. Let's wish him the best. Sehwag and Jaffer too may need similar approach, if they fail in this test too. But as of now we should not forget the fact that both of them played well during the last West Indies Test series. So they deserve their chances, though Sehwag's ODI form has been poor for quite some time now.
