Re: Selectors Dilemma
Fawad Alam is indeed an all rounder. He has not been given a chance to show his all round ability. He bowled regularly when he was playing U-19. Also bowled brilliantly in the 2006-07 T-20 competition. However he was not even given a chance to bowl on his ODI debut. He is sent too far down the order to bat when he plays for Pakistan that he cant really show his true colors. Plus he has never been used as an actual bowler either. The ball has been thrown to him to either speed up things or if Afridi and or Malik are going for too many runs. Once given a proper chance he would surley be able to justify his selection. By proper chance I dont been just play him in the ODI's but also send him a little higher up the order. Even Younis Khan was a lame duck when he was being sent in at #6 and #7 in the ODI's. Why expect Alam to be the next Bevan ?
