If he was sabotaging then Why did Misbah didnt included Hammad atleast Afridi included Hammad against Windies

Not really ehsan bhai. One can claim only if you look TOO negatively. But then again, didnt Misbah do the same? Is he afraid too?
Yes Afridi could have utilized Razzaq in a better way but it was not his decision alone. Misbah and Waqar were there too. Hammad's is such a non-issue to be honest.
are u aksing me or ehsan bhai?...lol
not just you and him alone, other people too who were saying things like that lol

Misbah didn't play him for whatever reason. To play all rounders and than DELIBERATELY not let them bowl, explain please. Could Razzaq have done any worse than Gul ? Why did he persist with GUL and not try Razzaq. On field decision are his and his only, not waqar, and there is certainly a suspicion in my mind that he was doing this deliberately.

Gul has not had a bad day prior to that game. And the ease with which Razzaq was pummelled against NZL, that would have played on Afridi's mind.
Thy key thing here is that with Misbah, you said he didnt play Hammad for whatever reason. But with Afridi, conspiracy theiroies are believable? Its easier to drop a player when you dont want him to overtake you right?
On field decisions backfire at times and Gul one did too, that day. He let Hafeez bowl, didnt he? Hafeez is a competition too. Afridi is not an astute captain we all agree. But he trusted Gul more than he trusted Razzaq. And Gul was in prime form. Had a bad day.. Thats it.

still doesn't answer the question. Look at the whole tournament and see how he treated Razzaq. I don't believe in conspiracy theories but when a pattern emerges I am not prepared to ignore it either.
Re: Pakistan v Ireland - 1st ODI - 2011
ok lets forget afridi for a second... why is hammad not in the team in such a low key series....the team management claims that we are preparing for future and hammad seems to be a promising guy..so why not try him more?....it is not a core issue by any means but it is not a non-issue either saby...
