Well, newcomer Sohail Tanvir, who I know nothing about yet, has been selected to replace Shoaib Akhtar at the Twenty20 Cup in South Africa. According to The News, Sohail Tanvir has shown no special aptitude in the Twenty20 form of the game, and while not an automatic selection, someone may have lobbied excessively for his selection to the squad. Knowing nothing about him, I'm not sure what the story is, but he did take 4 wickets against a fairly strong Australia A squad in the recent ODI match for Pakistan A. Best of luck to the young lad, but I hope the selection is based on talent, not on external pressures.
