Re: Pakistan team selection and performance:
I do not think you are right here. rather the question you have in your mind do not arise … but let me say further.
Question one is that: Who selected ‘15 losers’ that went to play world cup, and on what basis?
Obvious responsibility lies with selection committee, regardless of who was pulling the string. They are culprit and if they think they are not, then they should come in public and say ‘how and why’?
Question two … what you asked (selection of playing 11):
Here. responsible is captain, who decides with consultation of coach. Though decision is of Captain (Misbah). If Captain is incompetent and incapable to fire the shot, then he should come in public that he was just captain on paper and one firing the shot was X, Y or Z. If captain keeps quite than he has accepted the responsibility as well as blame for failure.
In the end, for all mishaps and show of incompetency that is happening in world cup, collective responsibility lies with PCB Chairman, officials, selection committee and captain of the team.
Though major responsibility lies with Selection committee and Captain for selecting an incompetent team on basis of personal likes/dislikes, recommendations or Parchi … and major responsibility of selecting playing eleven lies with Captain (Misbah) and partially on team coach (Waqar).
As for Moin. I do not even know that on what capacity he is with the team. He is chief selector, and chief selector job is to select the team at home, not travel with the team, or decide who should be in playing 11.
If Moin is interfering in deciding who play than those responsible should not listen to him and tell him to shut up. If they don’t then they are incompetent for the job as they have to take blame for others. Being Captain, coach, or Chairman Selection committee is paid job and are not volunteers job. Similarly, these thugs should know that they are representing national team, not private team.
