exactly, i think the samething. the performance that he showed in dpl matches, he could get a chance to play atleast one match in tri-series. based on his odi based performance on dpl, the selectors pick him in test squad. morons! the last time he played test match was 2-3 yrs ago. selectors believe that the one who does well on odi matches in dpl will also do well on international test matches. let nafess play more 3/4 days test match on dpl. selectors can pick him in odi squad as a replacement, but in test, he needs to develop.
