It reminds me of the recall of Saurav Ganguly in India test team during the series against England. Indian selectors recalled Ganguly back into the team saying "Ganguly is selected as an all-rounder". And then his bowling was used for just couple of overs and the very next test he was dropped from the team.

I hope Kapali does not become the same type of all rounder for Bangladesh as Ganguli is for India.

When you are not sure about someone's performance or there is no strong evidence to support the selection decision-- you just call the player an all-rounder. May be this is the modern style to bring someone back to the team.
