The stupidity of Indian selectors

So the First test match against South Africa is over and after close observation I have decided that the selectors are more stupid than i thought they were. when I saw the team on day one i was astonished Saha is getting to make his debut. undeserving is an under statement, i mean after many many years Badrinath gets a game and Saha found a place too along with him. Now the match is over and I still don't get why he was brought in, is it because he is a good batsmen or wicketkeeper then Karthcik? The former cant be possible considering that Karthick has proved himself plenty of times. the latter maybe possible but if that was the case why dint he wicket keep?
these are some questions that needs to be answered. Selectors were definitely a culprit.

The next problem is Harbhajan Singh. i really wonder why he is never ever dropped even after his horrible performances. Ohja can be given more chances and groomed. Harbhajan is like one of the most experienced spinners and his performance is really disheartening.

Just an hour back i looked at the news to see some changes in the "team". Funny story, the main change is Sreesanth comes back in which was expected. the other two changes being Raina and kartchick comoing back in. this makes complete sense. But what doesn't make sense to me is why are they back in place of Mitun and tyagi who dint even play the game? Why were they selected in the squad for just one match. this is just atrocious. the only reason i can think of they dint do a good job bringing stuff to the players!

Why can any Indian selectors be more responsible? this is a something that i have been wondering for many many years now. Never found an answer though!
