sometimes dropping a player and letting them have a think and work on things domestically can really benefit them. i reckon riyad became a better batsman from the little stint he did on the domestic scene when he was dropped from the national team. he went back and worked on his game, and performed so well it was hard to not select him and i think he's looking better on the international stage for it. that's the type of attitude we want all of the players to have.
