Oh come on. Try explaining how Adil Rashid - one of the best white ball bowlers of this century has had so few IPL gigs over the years? Obviously there’s loads of Muslim players including domestic and foreign in India but it’s definitely a disadvantage. As is having a Zim flag next to your name as well.tej_27 wrote: ↑Wed Jan 24, 2024 5:15 pmOhh God its not about being muslim.

Please secret. There is no agenda against any muslim in India. Stop swallowing what the western media wants you to believe. You've 4 foreign players a side and India has a good spinner from almost every state. It's hard for any foreign spiner to get into the IPL. Samuel Badree is hindu and one of the best t20 spinners of all time, why didn't he enjoy a more quantified IPL gig over the years?secretzimbo wrote: ↑Wed Jan 24, 2024 5:33 pmOh come on.

We’ve never had anyone named in an ICC team of the year before in our history. Raza has just done it two years in a row!
Never been in the BBL.
Its 50/50 whether he gets another IPL gig. In typical Raza fashion he was wildly inconsistent against the good attacks.
I think if a player was world class, he would be drafted highly in the IPL and we wouldnt be questioning whether he was there or not.
Like Taps said, Raza wouldnt make the top 3 + NZ international teams.
If you are world class, you make every team, unless a rare situation like where Stuart Macgill, a top 3 leggie of his day is up against Warne, the best of his day and theres no real room for two. For arguments sake I'll ease that and say he makes 11/12 test nations teams, which he doesnt.
