Since his debut, 12 Pakistan Test-matches ago, Asim Kamal has played half of those games.
During that time Pakistan have struggled for consistent batsmen - Inzamam-Ul-Haq, the one proven class-act, has averaged 43.71 in that period - perfectly good enough, but still lower than his career average.
Not once has Asim's average (at the end of a match) been under 44.
Yet he has played half the matches.
Sorry, I mean, I know Pakistan's selectors are a weird bunch, but this has to be one of the most nonsensical decisions in Test-cricket history.
Your team are struggling for batsmen, and you repeatedly leave-out someone like this.
