It was a right move by the team management by sending Pathan back home. Pathan will get an opportunity to gain back his form and confidence at the domestic platform. It's really disheartening to see some of our top players not being tested on the domestic front. Zaheer Khan and Ganguly have surely benefited by playing some domestic cricket.
Sehwag has been given plenty of chances to prove himself, yet he has fallen short. Why wasnt Gambhir given a chance to play the 2nd test, is beyond my imagination. The treatment both Zaheer and Ganguly had received had revived their careers. This kind of a shock treatment is necessary for some of our senior players, particularly Sehwag.
With that, I want to wish Pathan the best, and hope he finds his lost form.
