What wrong have Hussain Talat and Mehran Mumtaz done?

[indian_sap]

Those who have been following these two know very well how talented they are, but the opportunities haven’t been consistent enough for them to build momentum and confidence.

Hussain Talat, despite batting lower down the order, looked quite confident and even won us a match we were on the verge of losing.

The way the ball spins out of Mehran’s hand is a unique proposition—especially among the current crop of Pakistan spinners. Hopefully, both of them get a consistent run in the future.

* I meant to say the way the ball fizzes/ revs out of Mehran’s hand is a unique proposition.

You can't accommodate everyone in the side. If they perform they will get a chance.

 

[ElRaja]

what has hussain talat done right? played nearly 20 t20is, and never looked threatening in any way. mehran is young and will get a chance eventually, however hes done nothing special to warrant a place yet. hes way way behind in the pecking order.

Hussain talat is a poor batsmen. Can't play pace or spin.

 

[shamaan]

Talent bowling isn't good enough and is batting is OK at best.

Hussain talat is a poor batsmen. Can't play pace or spin.

Nonsense.

Talat is a better T20 batsman than Salman Agha who is the captain. I’ve seen both play plenty of cricket at domestic level. I firmly believe Talat is a better T20 batter than Agha, Babar, Rizwan, Saud and Kamran Ghulam for the middle order role.

 

[Rana]

Mehran Mumtaz on the other hand has attitude issues.

This guy isn’t an easy person to control on the field and God knows what he’s like behind closed doors in the dressing room. It’s ok to be passionate but you need to know your limits too with the captain and your teammates. He gets over enthusiastic out there!

I agree, Talat looks to me a solid batter and better than all you listed with the exception of Babar . Agha is a weak link in Pakistan batting line up, not sure what exactly he is doing in T20 team.

Not agha. Agha has reinvented himself. He improves day by day in international. That's what sets him apart.

The others suck in t20 though. Saud, Rizwan and Babar are honestly a tragedy. Maybe Bradman should stay in the 1930's if such comparisons are being made.

You can believe what you want. The fact is talat is a poor man's shoaib Malik when it comes to playing pace. The guy can't play pace and is very limited. His game against spin ain't much better either. Scoring runs in domestics against larkana etc is different from international cricket.
