It was right to drop harbhajan but why not Agarkar. Agarkar inspite of inconsistent performances in last 10 years has rarely been dropped. Is it because he is from mumbai?

Yes. Reional Biases are ruining cricket. We might well see talented youngsters moving to ICL Shorlty. Merit has no place in Indian Cricket. Regionalism is the order of the day.
It was a good decision to drop Bhajji. Infact, this should have been done long ago. Maybe, he'll come back hungrier, like dada did, when he was dropped.
I don't understand why every one keeps saying this. This was overdue for a while, he hasn't been performing for quite some time now, you cant just keep playing him for his past performances.
What a bunch of BS,Indian selectors dropping someone after one bad series,if that had happened none of the players right now will be in team for this long..especially Endulkar.
Sehwag was given umpteen number of chances,so was Bhajji and Saqi just wants Bhajji so that Pieterson can feast on him like how Afridi did hitting 4 sixes in a row..

Also its high time someone tells Indian and Pakistani players to not utter the below
""The talent in these two countries is amazing, but there's a problem with the people running the game. There are not enough opportunities to nurse raw talent. The system doesn't support players from the grass root levels." "
We have been hearing this for the last 2 decades and but teams suck,we think we are number 2 to AUS and another thinks their team is so talented and both should quit blaming just the board rather than the players...

Now, dont drag Sachin in this. I do agree, he is not the same old master anymore, but still is quite consistent. It was Chappell, who messed things up by asking him to bat at 4. Even before the WC, he did score in the WI and SL series.
