"At NCA we've had our full focus on Rahat Ali as we feel he is our match-winner" : Mushtaq Ahmed
Mushtaq Ahmed speaking on TV:
"I have been involved in the selection process for England and what I have learnt is that when a player is dropped, he should be called in an the reason explained and then he should be asked to improve upon that"
"This is the only channel that should be open between player and selector. Others should not be approached to intercede or interfere as it makes it difficult for the selectors"
"When Yasir Shah was dropped for the ODI series in WI, he was very disappointed"
"He was called by Inzi and myself and told that your googly needs to improve and then we will play 2 spinners if this happens"
"Unless the captain is strong, the team will not improve regardless of what pillars of guidance you have in place"
"The verdict of the disciplinary committee that has been formed for Umar Akmal will determine where Umar Akmal stands in our future plans"
"Until Shadab Khan plays atleast one season for 4-day cricket, it will be very difficult for him to play in Tests and even 50 over games"
"In T20 format, most batsmen are not interested in reading a spinner, they just want to his 4s and 6s so the bowler has a chance to get a wicket"
"In T20 cricket you can get a wicket on a bad ball but in 4-day and Tests, you will need to bowl well to get wickets"
"When you get a 'phainty' all day in a 4-day game, that is when you develop a temperament for the longer format"
"As far as exposure to BBL etc is concerned, this is great for him as when you play with good players, your confidence level increases"
"Rahat Ali has been unfit for a while but we at NCA have had our full focus on him for last few months as we feel he is our match-winner"
