http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Pakistan-c755 Cricket Board’s (PCB’s) chief selector, Mohsin Hasan Khan, has claimed of being the first one to give plenty of chances to youngsters in the national side. He said that selectors in the past only talked about introducing fresh blood to the team,
but the reality was totally opposite.
Talking to the media in Pakistan, stated, “We have already taken this bold step of resting some senior players and sending some new players to the http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Shahid-Afridi-c2482) and coach (Waqar Younis).”
However, Mohsin wanted the youngsters to make the most of the opportunity and play with responsibility. He said, “I have played Test cricket and I know that if one wants to play cricket for a long time, 30s and 40s are not enough to keep you going. These
new players need to learn to convert good starts into big scores.”
The chief selector suggested the new players to follow the foot-steps of legendary cricketers produced by the country. He gave an example of http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Javed-Miandad-c66580 and Mohammad Yousuf, who constructed their innings according to the situation of the
match, scoring big runs for the team.
Mohsin denied the reports of being a dummy selector, saying that he has always considered merit ahead of anything. The final team has to be approved by the Chairman of the Board (http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Ijaz-Butt-c64128) though, due to which the selection committee is widely criticised.
Pakistan cricket team is currently in the Caribbean and have done a good job there. Although the team lost the lone T20 match, they bounced back strongly in the One Day Internationals (ODIs), winning the series.
The Men in http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Green-c60723 have gained a lead of 3-0 in the series and will play two more games before a two-match Test series in May. The team has opted for several new players like Hammad Azam, Mohammad Salman and Junaid Khan. However, there are some senior members
to assist the youngsters as well like captain Afridi and his deputy http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Misbah-ul-Haq-c1972.
The board has not announced the test-match squad yet and might consider a couple of more senior players for the longest version of the game.
