I wish we have better options, but Nazimuddin is one of the few who have the right temperament for tests, if not the technique. Until better options emerge, I am not against giving him a change. Perhaps, he will surprise us all. If a better test opener is found, we can always switch.

I am saying this with the utmost respect for the national team and the BC members.
Agreed in every single point Suja Vai.
I do agree with you, playing a 22 average player in place of 30 is a funny idea to me. I ll pick Nazimuddin in every single day in place of Ash. Atleast Nazimuddin have the temperament.
