He has really forgot how to bowl like a fast bowler. He is really a pedestrian now.
Does he deserve his place in the team now?

no i dont think so..if he is going to concentrate on his bowling only then can again make a come back in the indian cricket...he should try to take help of our senior bowlers and then he should play the Ranji Trophy matches then only he has some chances..

Irfan pathan is a great bowler, he has swing as his beat weapon, he is good player but he is a victim of experiments that has been performed on to indian cricket tem, he forgets that he is in the team to bowl not bat, thats what cost him his invlovement in the squad.
It is good decision by authorities to let him play in domestic cricket so that he can regain his confidence as a bowler

It is too early to tell Irfan's carrer has end. He is younger so he has fair chance to come back in main stream of cricket, but it depends on him.

He has not forgetten any thing he is a good bowler he is just a victim of various experiments that hasd been performed over indian criket team players, Chappell has made him to focus more on bat, that why he is not able to concentrate on bowling, he is the best bowler I have seen, it is good for him now that he is out of the squad for some time, he has returned fom SA so that he can know again that he is bowler in this team and his performance as a bowler only counts, so he should perform like a bolwer and focus on his bowling rather than batting.
