Exactly my point. Our biggest weakness are not our players, rather it has been the team management, team selectors, poor coaching and poor captaincy in terms of poor strategy and poor gameplan than killed us over and over and over again. It's a fatal mistake to go with 1 spinner. Shakib is totally out of form and he won't have much impact. We need 2 solid full time spinners at least. Pacers are just a waste. New Zealand will belt our pacers and will score freely from the get go and Myshy will help them out by sending all 9 fielders guarding the boundary line.
Seriously we need 3 spinners on a serious spin track to run through kiwis batting lineup. Until our selectors and coach can't come out of their dumb and dumber mindset we will never win any test. And we better win a test now otherwise our test status seriously at risk!
