Dropping Pollard a hard call MI need to take: Harbhajan

Harbhajan Singh says MI need to take a hard call on Kieron Pollard. Speaking on the Star Sports show ‘Game Plan – IPL Retention Special’, he said, "He’s (Pollard) been there for many years. But yes, there are times when you have to take few tough calls and maybe this is the time. They have to move forward and make a team for the next 4-5 years and try to find someone who can do what Pollard has done over the years.

"Yes, they have Tim David, who can do a similar sort of job and of course, there is another Australian in the auction that is Cameroon Green. I think they will be eyeing him to be part of the Mumbai set-up. Of course, it’s going to be a tough call, but at some stage, you have to take those calls."

Since making his IPL debut in 2010, Pollard has made 189 appearances, scoring 3,412 runs at a strike rate of 147.32 and claiming 69 wickets with his gentle medium pace.
