Few people say sending back pathan in the middle of the series will hurt pathan, This statement can be proved as worng. Pathan should take things in a positive way he should consentrate on his bowling by playing some domestic matches, whereas batting is a plus point for him. He should accept the challange and try to prove himself, he will definately get a chance as as ganguly got. Other non peroformers should have also been send back such as 'sehwag'
