Sir: The main strength of the Asian cricket teams are their spinners. One fails to comprehend why none of the specialist spinners was tried during the One-Day series against New Zealand. Mohammad Hafeez is out due to his controversial bowling action. Yasir Shah had already proved his worth as a talented spinner.
Now Ajmal Saeed has been included in the fifteen-player squad selected for the World Cup. What if he does not get a clean chit from the International Cricket Council before the big event? Shahid Afridi too had failed at times when the team was direly in need of his contribution. Perhaps we do not learn from our mistakes — even in cricket.
