Bhajji is better than Aswin now. At initial stage all found difficult to play Aswin (as it happens in case of all new bowlers). Now most of the top batman knows how to play him. Aswins bowling lacks variations and turn. Bajji is aggressive and better bowler. He deserves a chance to play for India again
Look at spinners who are sucessful in seaming conditions S Warne/S Ajmal/G Swan - These guys use wrist to spin the bowl so they do not need pitch to assist them completely
1. Harbajan is GENUINE SPINNER who uses WRIST while other current INDIAN OPTIONS does not use wrist to spin the ball
ASHWIN - Finger spinner & Trickster who needs pitch to support otherwise he is will very stale as what you have seen in all the overseas tours where as in INDIA he is able to take wickets
R Jadeja - He is not a INTERNATIONAL Standard spinner at all he only puts the ball in right AREAS and expects pitch to assist him, with hardly any improvement in batting ASHWIN is better choice abroad to JADEJA as ASHWIN shines as BATSMAN more than JADEJA
P Ohja - Though he is also not complete wrist spinner, he uses little bit of wrist more than what ASHWIN or Jadeja does so I dont say he will be sucessful but can perform better as compared to ASHWIN or JAdeja
I have not seen any of the current crop of other INDIAN spinners using wrist to SPIN the BALL only exceptions are some bowlers I have seen in this current season of IPL mostly LEG SPINNERS who are using WRIST more so atleast DHONI should stop giving preferences to Jadjeja/Ashin and look of these new options otherwise Harbajan is the BEST OPTION atleast in TEST MATCHES
Re: Bhajji is BEST SPIN OPTION FOR INDIA: Atleast in SEAM WICKETS

whether he uses wrist or foot or ball$ is a different story. did he take wickets even after getting repeated chances?
IPL is not the only tournament will be considered for selection in to national team. Please check your other games such as Ranjhi, Duleep and one day tournaments. Try hard in this season so that you can make it Australia and world cup. Please stop shouting and make ugly gestures whenever you take a wicket.
You had ur time under the sun and played great cricket. But now its time to make way for the youngsters. Think long terma and nurture these kids into worlds finest.
