I wonder about Cricinfo!
I sometimes wonder about these cricinfo writers, specially when it comes to Pakistan. Right at the end of this article by Kamran Abbasi, he makes a comment that he finds the Pakistani strategy of questioning Shoaib's place in the team somehow in error. While Shoaib maybe a dangerous bowler, and may very well be the fastest bowler in cricket, but you can't build a test team around him, when you can't rely on him to bowl 5 days, let alone in a 5 test serioes where he coul be called on to bowl for 25 days. Shoaib Akhtar is a great weapon when available, but to compare him to Mushtaq who has toiled away in county cricket with good results in county cricket is a load of hogwash. Each has to be compared in their own right and found a place in the team in their own niche.
