Well, that is the story doing the rounds as Amit Mishra was dropped for the second Test between India and Bangladesh at Dhaka.

Many are attributing the dropping of Amit Mishra, who picked seven wickets and scored a half-century in the first match, to the return of Mahendra Singh Dhoni as Indian captain after pulling up with a back spasm in the first.
It is believed that Mishra was supported by the stand in captain, Virender Sehwag, the very support proved a thorn for Dhoni to go ahead and pick Pragyan Ojha over the Delhi spinner.
The Dhoni-Sehwag rift also surfaced during the 2009 ICC World Twenty20 in England.
True or not, rumour has it that Dhoni has Yuvraj Singh and Harbhajan Singh while the Delhi 'gang' of Gautam Gambhir and Ishant Sharma are behind Sehwag.
Are there two teams in team India?
