Former Chief Selector of Pakistan Cricket Team Muhammad Wasim has said that it was not right to send all the youngsters against full strength Afghanistan in the condition of Sharjah.
In an exclusive conversation with Geo News, Mohammad Wasim said that the home series is there to give new talent a chance or to give rest to the seniors. It was known about the New Zealand series, it was expected that the important players would not be there, there was an opportunity here.
Mohammad Wasim says that it is important to feed some seniors along with the juniors. When Saeem Ayub and Mohammad Haris played under the guidance of Babar, there was a difference, if not Babar then Rizwan, if not these two then Fakhar should be with the team. It was necessary.
He said that it would have been better to rest two or three players instead of four or five at once. It is natural that when the seniors come back, the juniors have to leave their place. There will be injustice.
Talking about Imad Wasim and Muhammad Nawaz, the former Chief Selector said that in my time there was a competition between Imad and Nawaz, Nawaz’s performance was better, Imad batted well this time which is quite a welcome thing, the basis of the data. But we benefited from the selection, gradually the use of data is being given importance in Pakistan cricket.
Talking about Aamir, he said that if Muhammad Aamir wants to come back, he should withdraw his retirement and perform domestically, there is a good competition in fast bowling, Aamir will have to work hard and perform, the players he has invested in. It is important to take them along.
He says that A-team tours are always needed, the A-team series with Zimbabwe will not achieve the development objective, England liners, Australia A-team is necessary for development. There must be visits, but it is also important to achieve the goal.
