Mohammad Sami, Pakistan’s fast bowler, is extremely disappointed to have not been given a central contract by http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Pakistan-c755 Cricket Board (PCB) but he is geared up to prove his worth in the upcoming tour of Sri Lanka.
The Karachi-born fast bowler was out of the national team since 2010 but has been recalled for the tour of http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Sri-Lanka-c758 in all the three formats of the game. Sami has been performing well in the domestic cricket of the country since the last couple of seasons
and also impressed in the inaugural http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Bangladesh-c747 Premier League (BPL).
PCB announced the list of centrally contracted players last week and the seasoned campaigner was not considered. Sami is not happy with the snubbing as he was expecting a better offer from the board.
Sami expressed, “It definitely hurts. The feeling is natural as I was expecting my name to be there. The problem is that the PCB also announced a separate stipend category for impressive performances in the domestic events and my name is not even in that
list.”
The 31-year-old fast bowler has so far played 35 Tests, 83 One Day Internationals and three T20s for Pakistan and has grabbed more than 200 wickets in international cricket. However, Sami has been extremely inconsistent and that is the reason why he has
so far failed to cement his place in the national side.
Even at this stage of his career, Sami is still one of the fastest bowlers in the country but he completely understands that the series against Sri Lanka will probably be his last chance to establish his international career.
Sami expressed that the only way he can prove the board wrong is by doing well in the field and feels that playing for the Green Shirts is much more important than getting the contract.
“I’ve made many comebacks through hard work. I will display the same attitude and earn the contract through my performance. The best thing for me is that I am in the Pakistan team. Although a central contract is important for a player, being in the national
team is more important,” he added.
