The Indian selectors appear to be stuck in a vicious circle - they keep going back to players they have already tried and have been unsuccessful. Rohit Sharma's case is a prime example of that.

Rohit has not done anything of note in the first class circuit to warrant a comeback to the Indian Test team. And yet he IS making a comeback, perhaps on the basis of his heroics in the limited overs format - which is not the right basis for selection in the longer version of the game.

Picking him also conveys a very disheartening message to those youngsters who are sweating it out in first class cricket to get into the Indian Test XI.
