safehands46 said:Its good for his confidence though and injuries do happen. If he gets to 90 it will be quite impressive. Baghe jinnah is harder wicket than most pakistani grounds.
Flood of wickets and now we need 10 off the last overfair_play said:True safehands.
For a while I though you were Arsalan till I realised you must be 20 years younger. Anyway, Bazid ahs been performing for a while now, but doesnt get a chance - and the natual conclusion is he is not wanted.

IMMY69 said:u are right...bazid is not wanted nor is gul and nor is mansoor amjad and everyone else who is not in the squad are not wanted. only those who make lassi for bob and inzy are wanted!
safehands46 said:I think with a score here bazid might be able to catch a county offer or something. He is lucky this a relatively week a team so he is the star once again.

IMMY69 said:i think there is no harm in youngsters perofroming consitently well against touring teams in the first class matches before they given a long run in the international side....every player must earn their keep and this sort of selection policy will only strengthen players and not dishearten them!
bazid should just keep performing whenever he is given the chance
fair_play said:True - though at some point management have to be open and honest with people like him, and say "Sorry chap, we dont rate you, and you wont get many chances"
No point in making people like Misbah/Bazid play A team cricket for years on end. Bazid has made a packet of runs for Pak A over the last 2 years - the most prolific and consistent A batsman by far - way over even Hassan Raza.
What's the point in him playing for the A team anymore? I dont see he has anything to prove one way or other. Either he is good enough, or not good enough to play test cricket.
Management and Burly Bob and Burly Inzi should just tell him the bottom line now. Ditto for Misbah and a few others.

IMMY69 said:but what makes u so sure they havent already spoken to him???
you see i just dont agree with all the conspiracy theories where playes picked because of freindship etc etc
safehands46 said:Personally I believe its part of the game. Because anything with a selection commitee has bias whether we see it or not. In australia, we see these thing happen alot, from the dropping of damian martyn and lack of chances for stuart law or In england dropping thorpe for pietersen. Its all part of the game. So yeah there hard lucks in the selection process but the player has no control over that.
All bazids duty is to score as he is playing for pakistan and do pakistan proud. NOt some half a** job that everyone regrets. If he does Pakistan proud he willbe noticed and respected. In the end bazid isnt a junaid zia because of the unique distinction.

also big well done to bazid. such a shame hong-kong bashing khan was picked in main side ahead of bazid!
