Another story of favoritism begins. #Sarfaraz was removed because Misbah and Waqar didn't like him. Usman Qadir, a friend of Babar Azam, just made it into the team when Babar became captain. It's not too far when his cousins Kamran and Umar Akmal make a comeback, again. pic.twitter.com/I69FtHh590

Usman Qadir seriously? The guy was dispatched all over the park in the last BBL. Can only bowl poor flighted deliveries

We select players who don't value playing for this nation.. Usman Qadir who bashed Pakistan is now in playing 11 on the other hand players like Fawad Alam are working hard and values playing for nation and yet still not getting any chance
