KARACHI: Pakistan former star cricketer Ramiz Raja said on Wednesday that he cannot understand the wicket keeper batsman Sarfraz’s exclusion from the team during the two Twenty 20 cricket games against Sri Lanka.
In an interview with a British media house, Raja said that Sarfraz was the best choice if the team were to include a wicket keeper batsman in the T20 playing eleven.
“He is a match winner and his sort of players get preference on the team sheet”, said Raja.
The cricketer who is now one of the top commentators in international cricket maintained that the question about an in-form vice captain’s exclusion from the team is still unanswered.
He remarked that Pakistan team did not have a big pool of players as far as selection choices are concerned.
“The team is still not in a strong position and they have started experimenting with the squad”, lamented Raja.
He maintained that if the experiment (of Sarfraz’s exclusion) would have failed and the team would have lost the match, the management would have to face a lot of embarrassment before the nation.
