Mohammad Sami aims to make a comeback
Mohammad Sami, the Pakistan fast bowler is aiming to make a comeback in the national side for the ODI and Test series against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/South-Africa-c757 in UAE in October. If Sami manages to find his form, the injury prone bowler could definitely find himself part of
the squad headed for the World Cup 2011. With the fate of Mohammad Amir and Mohammad Asif hanging in oblivion and Rana Naved banned, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Pakistan-c755 is not left with many options to equip their bowling department with.
The domestic structure in Pakistan lacks credence and it surely needs many reforms to ensure that talent does not find itself rotting on the streets without being picked for the national side. Earlier in the years, the Pakistan captain took it upon himself
to find talent with Imran Khan finding Inzamam ul Haq who proved to be one of the best batsmen the world has ever seen. There is a dearth of tournaments and the players do not find the opportunity to play quality cricket.
"I've not taken much time off during the off season and have been working hard on my game at the http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Rashid-Latif-c84084 Cricket Academy, as well as training on my own," Sami said.
"I want to ensure that I am 100% ready when the new season starts. I am hopeful that the hard work will pay off and I can be given another chance for Pakistan."
Sami started his career on a high after he grabbed 8 wickets on his Test debut against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Sri-Lanka-c758 in Lahore in only his very third game. However the bowler failed to live up to the expectations
as in the 34 tests he has played, Sami averages 50.73.
"Sometimes statistics don't always tell the full story," Sami said. "I don't want to offer excuses, but those that have followed my career will appreciate that I have not had the best of luck. I am a better bowler than my statistics suggest and I will prove
that in the coming months and years if given the opportunity.”
This is certainly the time for Pakistan to come up with newer younger talent than try to utilize those who have already played for the side and failed to perform for them. By choosing them, the team stands a chance of losing in on a youngster who will have
time to groom and blossom in the company of Shoaib, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Razzaq-c84421 and Umar Gul. Meanwhile, Sami surely seems keen to make a comeback in the national side.
