Remember him ??? The ever-reliable #5 who would come in the most difficult situation, take a look and provide a thunderous blast to get India out of trouble ? He - of the famous Allan Border catch of the 1992 World Cup, he - of the famous assault on Waqar Younis in the 1996 World Cup, he - of an unbeaten courageous 100 against Australia when the top 4 had scored nothing in the 1999 World Cup ???
He who was convicted of match-fixing, He who did not give up even in the face of greatest adversity, He who has had a superb year for Delhi and North Zone - he who still might be one of the top fielders in India - BRING HIM BACK !!!!
The ban on Ajay Jadeja (and there is no reason now to go into the debate over the ban was legitimate) has been legally overruled by the Courts and his performances deserve reward with a recall to the ODI side. The selectors have been extremely unfair in "not considering" him for the Challenger Trophy. The Indian ODI team is in desperate need of a batsman coming down the order who can play a dual role - moving the scoreboard along and providing a blast - and Jadeja fits the bill perfectly. India cannot afford the luxury of ignoring him. Ajay Jadeja - great fielder, match-winner, intelligent cricketer - we want you back.
