it's also that the domestic system isn't strong enough to develop them to a high enough standard. the problem is even if a kid has the talent to make it at the international level, they may not do it straight away and may need to go back to domestic cricket, but if they domestic cricket is a horrible standard then it's not going to develop them very much and that makes it tough for them to get better and get back into the team and be successful long term.

you have a point though, look at gazi, he had a couple of seasons, got into the team and started great but has now been struggling a lot for quite a few months now.
