This is deeply concerning. Clearly there is a lot of unfairness around team selections and this will always be a stopper when it comes to team performances. I am listing a few examples from the recently concluded Australia series:

1. Shan Masood - not given a single game despite showing great form and scoring many runs in domestic.
2. Sajid Khan - persisted with despite proving that he is not cut for international cricket.
3. Hasan Ali & Iftikhar Ahmed - enough said
4. Dahani - what was his crime?
5. Asif Afridi & M Haris - clearly deserved at least one game.
6. Haider Ali - I think we have destroyed his confidence by benching him.
7. Imad Wasim - the curious case!
8. Zahid Mehmood - should he be anywhere near the squad?

What concerns me even more is that the team management was scared of giving a chance to new faces in the one off mickey mouse T20 game.
 
Story or self destruction in Pakistan. World cup T20 and Aus tour already scarified with Babar wanting to give confidence to Hasan Ali and Iftikhar. Need to think about giving confidence to Shan, Haider, and Naseem Shah/Dhani if we need to win the next WC.
 
PCB or Pakistan will always find ways to damage itself even if they are genuinely world beaters.

Just look at how Misbah strutted in and destroyed a no.1 rank T20 side
 
Dahani punished for his ridiculous celebrations pissing off the likes of Naseem Shah
 
At least from a T20 and ODI perspective, I can honestly say Pakistan has regressed a lot since Misbah took over and damaged the side beyond repair.

Plus the PCB media team and the PR team continue to feed us with this PG image of PCB in order to make it seem as if all is ok.

PCB media hypes Babar, Rizwan and Shaheen

You hype Sharjeel, Azam and Dilbar
 
Hasan Ali Shan Masood Saud Shakeel Iftikhar Ahmed Wasim Jr. Imad Wasim Zafar Gohar all drafted in due to links no doubt about it the lobby in PCB
 
Haidar Ali and Dahani would add so much to the limited overs team. After so many matches, surely you could have given the dynamic duo of uselessness - Khushdil and Iftikhar - a break. Hasan Ali didn’t need to have so many chances and even Wasim jr could have taken the last t20 off
