The inclusion of Abdur Razzak doesn't make any sense


When Bangladesh selected Anamul Haque, Nasir Hossain, Mohammad Mithun and Abul Hossain for the Tri-series, one thing came to my mind, it was more about taking so called 'revenge' against Chandika Hathurusingha than logic. Now, the selection of a spinner, who past his best long ago, is not only funny but inappropriate as well.

Abdur Razzak has played 12 Test matches and taken 23 wickets at an average of 67.39!!! How can he be termed as an experienced Test bowler?

Bangladesh selection process has been a joke recently. Some cricketers are picked on the basis of media hype only, which is bad for future.

The domestic cricket of Bangladesh, be it the longer format or circus shows like BPL can never be the criteria of judging the quality of players these days.

It's a place where run scoring and fetching wickets are too easy and fishy. Merit and hard work are mostly undermined. That's why the performers out there found themselves as a fish out of water in international circuit. And for which, Chandika didn't even bother to follow our domestic cricket.

I cannot welcome Abdur Razzak in international cricket as because, I don't think he would deliver us the goods. Our team selection is getting comical day by day. On what basis such old horses and internet heroes are picked remains a moot question.


Aren't there any quality in pipeline that yesterday's men are summoned time and again? What's next? Tushar Imran?

Thank You
