. See Akram in this side infuriates me, because he's not good enough and he's talking a place of a more deserving player
Ya, a guy averaging 30 and striking at 150 with the bat in t20i’s is nowhere near good enough.

His dad must have made a donation to get him selected because he sure wasn’t picked on merit after an appalling series vs Bangladesh.
Stop bahing the guy at keast he is a winner and passion to be an overachiever..Wes and Marumani are so overrated and bring shit to table..

No bashing from me broski. That post was dripping in sarcasm. I’d have Faraz in my team solely for his batting. Maybe even would open with him. Strike rate is like 20 better than Raza :lol:

I see Dane has got another year with Notts, keeping situation is really up for grabs.

Thats great on paper. Yet they didn't have an issue in giving Myers the red carpet treatment, even though he hadn't played any franchise. The stupidity here is that players like Jayden Schadendorff will never get selected for a franchise consistently, and when he invariably has a few bad games, he'll be dropped which, according this selection policy, will stop him progressing into national colours. Yet Madhevere, Marumani and Akram are selected despite consistently failing. It's a really really stupid and contradictory policy which screams favouritism. Campbell has his flaws, but he shouldn't be disregarded. He's made out like the new coach doesn't rate him and so he's now out in the cold.

- Basically says that NPL stats are not counted in selection.
- Campbell was dropped based on concerns that Sammons has about his ability in T20/technique.
- Craig and Sean have been retired from T20s

Maybe Shumba also had similar conversations with Sammons. He was very quick to sign up with an aussie club side.
