Former captain Salman Butt has expressed his anger towards Pakistan’s selection policy for the ongoing Test series against Australia.

Salman questioned why Pakistan picked a lot of inexperienced players, who had either not played international cricket before or had not played Test cricket for a long time.

The 35-year-old’s comments come after Pakistan lost to Australia by an innings and five runs in the first Test in Brisbane.

“This is an important series of [the] ICC Test Championship, you should have picked your best-experienced players for the tour,” Salman was quoted as saying by Geo News.

“This is not the time to test those who will play for Pakistan regularly after a few years, this was time to go with your best players as the series was part of ICC Test Championship.”
