win a match single handedly by playing a big knock just like Rohit does.
There're many in-out players in current team (Manish, Kedar, KL) and sidelined (Yuvi, Gambhir) who did that many times, maybe with a much better ratio (performance/no. of matches) than Rohit. But they don't get such 'Unethical backings' from BCCI/Selectors/Team management. They were thrown out of team after failure in 3-4 matches.
 
Can't see India manage >160 (changed from 170 after Dhawan's wicket) specially when MSD finding it difficult lately.

Yuvi we all know what he went through and frankly had I been in his place, I dont even know whether I would have had that courage to fight it hard and come back as a winner. So expecting him to hold his place ahead of numerous better options do not do justice to both Yuvraj the champion and YouWeCan the fighter.

As far as Gambhir, he is a very selfish, arrogant player which is strictly a no no for any team environment. When he was dropped, everyone complained and blamed Dhoni for it. And when Dhoni stepped down as captain and Kohli took over, they were expecting Gambhir to be back as a regular opener. But not to be. The team knows much better who is suitable for what role in the team. As I often say opinions might differ. This is what I think and I dont expect everyone to agree. Even if others have different opinions, I respect that. There is no right or wrong.
