salman butt....

so jang is reporting that salman will be back for sure for the englnd tour (see below)…he has scored with an average of 107 this season… waqar and few selectors want him back but chairman and afridi dont.

what do you guys think? i think he will be a failure in england for sure as he cant play the swing but in Australia he has scored really well.

so shd we bring him back? my heart does not want him back but our openers suck big time…plus if aamir is back, how can we stop him? but he was the real culprit. and he was lying for so long. dont want to trust him

what do you guys think?

Re: salman butt....

One player can do nothing. We need to think about what is wrong with our setup. Why the players that score big in domestic fail to score in international matches.

Re: salman butt....

A big no no from me even if he averages 500. The reason, in this whole sordid affair he was the instigator, was involved and was also the captain of the team. after the fixing came to light he kept on lying that he was not involved right upto the time that there was no other option for him but to own upto what he did.

The guy should never represent Pakistan again. He cannot be trusted.

Re: salman butt....

See we all remember very well what happened.

That case was the worst in Cricket history and a black spot on Pakistani cricket that will remain there forever. Salman Butt wasnt only a part of that story but also played the most important role.
Everything happened under his watch.
He was the direct contact of bookie and was one who actually convinced Asif and Aamir to do that.
He didnt admit for a very long time till after Amir did and he started getting some privileges for that, then butt decided to change his stand.
So to be me its very clear, he is done for good. So is Asif.

Re: salman butt....

A big no, he was below average batsman and total disaster in fielding....had he not got banned, he might have been dropped long back...

And whats with pcb, if they are looking for old brats then why not Salim Malik or Abdul Qadir, Wasim Akram and Imran Khan...

Also for openers, Saeed Anwar and Aamir Sohail can be approached...and lets not forget about Miandad and Inzimam..
