The former interim chief selector says Fawad’s performance was excellent as he scored a lot of runs and brought stability to the Test side in the recent matches.
Lahore: Former Interim Chief Selector Shahid Afirid expressed concerns on Saturday over exclusion of batsman Fawad Alam from the Test team.
Afridi lauded Fawad for his amazing performance in the latest Test matches and bringing stability to the Test side.
“Fawad played excellent and scored a lot of runs before going through a rough patch of form,” said the former chief selector.
He said, “Fawad’s exclusion is surprising,”.
Fawad had a successful run in the Quaid-e-Azam Trophy, where he scored 706 runs in 10 matches for Sindh, including two centuries and five fifties, at an average of 64.18.
Afridi realized that the veteran batsman should not have been dropped in the first place as he brought stability to the Test side when he was in form in the recent matches.
