Especially when you see that he was really batting very well in the practice games and was the top scorer in the last game with a century. Otherwise India would have lost that game pathetically. Secondly they havent got any replacement for him. So the only effect this would have is to shatter his morale. And then they have to send back Sehwag and Tendulkar and Jaffer as well? And make Indian cricket laughable! It is high time we recognized the place of allrounders who could ccntribute either with bat or ball or both.
