Only D.kaneria and U.Gul are experienced. Pak can not win test with this team against SriLanka, their batting lineup is looking good after A.Kamal come back.
"He is a very senior player and it was a very difficult decision to drop him. But we didn't want a situation where he was in the 15-member squad and not picked in the final playing eleven. It would have been humiliating for a senior player like him," Qadir said.
cdrop him from the team is less Humiliating? hahaha
how cud they tolerate non-performer afridi for so many years is also an interesting question.
in battng, even our own bhajji is much better than this highly rated afridi. he remained in the team merely for his maiden 100 of 36 balls. only positive to some extent, was his bowling. but that also is not world class. so he is utter failure, latest example being in ipl.

WHy not be BLUNT and tell them that they need to go back and rework their game instead of telling lies and giving excuses like this!
Shows the Paki Mentality of hiding and avoiding Loss of Face!
Just imagine a scenario, where Sachin is rested or Dravid or Irfan are not in the playing eleven, and the selectors think that it is an affront to them!
Good that we do not have jokers with this ATTITUDE picking players!
