Salman Butt speaking on TV after the Quaid-e-Azam Trophy final:
"This was an interesting QEA Trophy final, and when I went for the final presentation, I forgot to thank the groundsman as we havent seen such good quality pitches this season"
"It is not true that my interest in cricket has become lesser this year and my form is also fine"
"I am getting a good feel when the bat meets the ball but unfortunately I have not been able to translate that into bigger runs"
"I played really well in the National T20 where I was averaging 109.33 and SR was 133.87 and I was also not out in 4 games"
"If you look at the stats in QEA, there is no opener or one-down batsman in the top 10 players"
"Fact of the matter is that given the ball which has been used, there is little chance of playing strokes in the first 20-25 overs"
"If you are dealing with exaggerated seam for the first 20-25 overs then most batsmen will not have chance to score"
"This is a question for selectors to answer; when I scored 100s in both innings in last year's QEA final then they still did not play me"
"I am not worried because if I am called in to play international cricket, I know that I am middling the ball and our domestic cricket is tougher than international cricket"
"No international cricket is played in such bowler friendly conditions"
"Yes quality of bowling is high but even in England there are not such bowling friendly conditions"
"Mentally I am fit and I am scoring runs in every other tournament"
"I had the highest runs in the high-performance camp"
"I was always conveyed positive messages by Mickey Arthur and Grant Flower that there was attention on me"
"that I should keep on getting runs and they were trying for me (to get selected)"
"Whenever I have met Inzi he has encouraged me and told me that I will play"
"But where and when I will play, no one seems to know!"
"I saw a youtube clip in which (Inzi) said that they want me to play in the A Team but many months have gone and nothing has happened"
"Cricket is my passion and I want to play for my country and that's all that keeps me going"
"I know that there are people with lesser performances than me and they have represented Pakistan"
"The ball that Kamran Akmal got when he was 67 seamed about a foot!"
"In this game some of Pakistan's top bowlers were playing but the type of bowling Samiullah and Waqas did was exceptional"
"Samiullah was blowing kisses for someone else not me"
