Omit some performers Pakistandomestic cricket Ex-batsman angered again from first Test squad against England Ahmed Shehzadwho slams pakistan cricket board (PCB) selector Mohammad Yousuf in a video shared on social media.
Earlier this week, the PCB announced that Pakistan test team and the decision to retain the much-criticized Shan Masood as captain.
Shehzad was particularly angry about missing batsmen Kamran Ghulam The premise is that “the selection policy emphasizes consistency and continuity, and it is believed that 15 players are enough to participate in the test.”
“You won’t see any single player (in the Test squad) having a great performance,” Shehzad said. “…Beda garak kar diya hai yario-dostiyo mein pakistan cricket team ka (Favoritism and friendship destroyed Pakistan cricket).”
“Do you have any sense of shame?”
He claimed it was unfair to others Abdullah Shafiq Promotions continued despite inconsistent performance.
“He (Shafiq) is so fast, this is not a normal thing… Who is behind him? Who is making sure he is not left out of the team?” Shehzad asked.
“He (Shafiq) scored a double century long ago. Even the trees of that era have dried up, so don’t exclude him from the team!”
Ghulam played in the Test series against Bangladesh but is yet to make his Test debut. His first-class numbers are impressive, with 4377 runs in 98 innings at an average of 49.17, including 16 centuries and 20 fifties.
He was not included in the squad for the first Test against England in Multan.
“How can you throw away Kamran Ghulam?” Shehzad further asked. “What’s your logic for this? You’re unfair, Mohamed Yusuf Saab. It’s even more unfair that you chose Abdullah Shafiq.”
“The (PCB) management is fooling the chairman (Mohsin Naqvi),” Shehzad added. “This is not the way forward.”
He slammed the 50-over Championship Cup as a distraction tactic, dubbing it the “Doka Cup”.
“They just want to distract the public and the media by providing content[through the Champions League]so that the focus shifts to that.”
