No central contracts (not even grade C) for Harbhajan, Zaheer or Sehwag. Essentially forcing them into retirement. I agree with Harbhajan, but we need Zaheer.
Not entirely sure where Sehwag would fit in - Rohit Sharma and Dhawan have cemented their ODI opening partnership with Dhawan and Vijay also looking set for tests. Personally don't agree with Vijay at all - does not have the skill to play outside India and will be badly exposed in SA.

Why do you need Zaheer? hes injury prone now. You cant gurantee he will get through a test match.
I don't usually agree with the Bcci. but they have made the right decisions in this instance.

It's only recently the BCCI have been like this, like the past year or so. That too only because Dhoni seems to be quite influential in who gets picked in the squads.

BCCI have been excellent with this decision, cannot go by name now.
The Indian team are looking to another era of great players. I am so shocked on how quickly we have replaced and filled the boots of the legends of Tendulkar, Sehwag, Dravid, Laxman, Ganguly.
We have replacements in Rahane and a new up coming star called Vijay Zol.
Future is bright on the batting side, bowling has always been a trouble for India and always will be when kids want to be the next Sachin or the next Kohli.
Bold moves by BCCI but a great move....

You wouldn't be surprised when India tour England all the pitches would be prepared suitable for batting. So, every stadium would make money by selling tickets for 5-days...
