Leaving out Harbhajan for a game or two may motivate him to work even harder and correct his flaws. It has happened with great cricketers. Even Kapil was left out by Gavaskar for one test after he threw his wicket away in a test at Eden Gardens. That was the only test Kapil ever missed in his career span.

You are right. He should be dropped for a couple of Matches. Correction : Kapil played the rash shot in Feroz Shah Kotla. Kapil was dropped for the next test at Eden test.

Dropping Kapil by Gavaskar was entirely a different reason. It was political in nature.
I am a great fan of Harbhajan and I also respect Akram's point of view. I think replacing Harbhajan is not a bad idea, let another spinner get a chance also......

Wasim’s comment is unwarranted. Even Swan could not do much at Lords. Mishra will get his chance in subcontinent pitches. Or like olden days we should play with 2 pacers and two spinners, which I think, will not happen in England.
