One of the very few good things to have happened to Indian Cricket in recent times.Thats how I would describe this move.
There was no point in persisting with a wounded horse as it could further shatter his confidence if he was to be hit all over the park by lesser players.This lack of confidence had started to reflect on his batting also.
India can now hope and wish that he bounces back with a vengeance just like Zaheer Khan did.We definitely need him more as a frontline bowler than as a batsman who can also bowl (thats exactly what he was turning out to be in recent times).
Let us all pray for Irfans quick and spirited comeback into the Indian team.
