If BCCI thinks that Pathan will do better if he plays a couple of Ranji matches , then yes its a good decision. But BCCI should have a close watch on pathan.
He is a key player in both forms of the game.
BCCI do whatever we want him back as the old Pathan.Do not ignore him.
Sehwag/Jaffer are no good.Please drop both of them.Gautham/Uthappa/Akash chopra would be better options.
