Bangladesh to play two-match T20I series against UAE ahead of Pakistan tour

Former Pakistan captain Inzamam-ul-Haq came down hard on the national selectors for the 20-man squad they picked for the upcoming two-match Test series against South Africa.
The former batsman was left annoyed with plenty of picks including Haris Rauf & Tabish Khan. Inzamam-ul-Haq believes the selectors didn't show any vision as they picked Tabish Khan, who is over 36-year-old.
"Selection is the name of vision for the next two years. Your vision defines your selection. In the team announced by the PCB selection committee headed by Mohammad Wasim showed no vision at all, can anyone tell me Tabish Khan who is a pacer and is over 36 would go on to improve from here? Even a batsman reaching this age can’t be selected for the very first time for a Test side." Speaking on his Youtube channel, Inzamam said.

Haris Rauf, who was part of the Melbourne Stars in the ongoing BBL, was called up to the Pakistan Test team. However, Inzamam was unhappy with this as the Pakistan speedster hasn't played enough first-class games.
"Haris Rauf is another example. He has played three first-class matches only taking just seven wickets, and you have named him in the Test squad. He should have been given the whole run in domestic four-day cricket rather than making an effort to straight away give him a Test cap." Inzamam added.
South Africa are touring Pakistan after a gap of 13 years. The first Test match starts from 26 January in Karachi, followed by a Test in Rawalpindi.
