I think it was alright because if a player inspite of talent needs to play more games instead of sitting in the bench.
it is a positive thinking on the part of the selection committee and will also send a very strong message to other members that talent alone will not count. The passion to perform will increase if such decisions are taken.
pathan is young and should take this as a challenge and get back his habit of taking wickets .
I hope the selectors continue with the same policy inrespect of other players.
