Seems like Pace is everything to our selectors. It doesn't matter if a bowler bowls half trackers, no balls, leg stump line etc etc... as long as he has pace all is forgiven including pathetic fielding.
It seems there is no value for line and length and the amount of control that Nazmul bring to the table. He might not be as good as Kulesekara or Vaas or Pollock or Mullaly but he is a similar sort of bowler who depends on control and swing rather than pace. He is a bowler who can get you 10-12 tight overs while the spinners look for wickets from the other end. He can also get you the odd wicket with the new ball. For Abul to get picked over him was shocking
