Is it time to bite the bullet?

Watching India win an ODI series in Lanka for the first time straight after the Test team were humiliated by the Lankans was bittersweet.
While its easy to say that Test cricket and ODI cricket are two different things, results speak a different and universal language. Losses tend to put pressure and wins tend to ease the pressure. Suffice to say that with this win, the much vaunted Indian middle order will be under tremendous strain, while Dhoni and his merry band will be cock a hoop.
In the wake of a series win, its easy to paper over the lack of experience and plump for youth, but it has its downsides. Indian cricket in the recent past has been littered with stories of young guns making sensational debuts and failing to keep it going and fading away from memory. This recent crop needs to be handled carefully. The seniors are not going to be around for ever nor will they be tolerated for long.
How do the selectors manage the transition? The new bunch of paid selectors are bound to have an unenviable job on hand. Do they bite the bullet and banish players who have been the face of Indian cricket for ages and go for youth or do they play a balance game?

Methinks its time to bite the bullet and start the process immediately. There is bound to be pain for a while, but the gains are many to miss out on.
