The core competence of the Indian Left
The Telegraph reports:
Update: Some chaps have gone on a hunger strike demanding that Ganguly be reinstated in the Indian side. I suppose you could call it Gandhian.
Update 2: Nanda Kishore informs me of a precedent to this. Apparently, Ajit Agarkar's exclusion from an an earlier series had "caused a furore even in the Maharashtra Assembly." Such fun.
