Such things create pressure on the selectors,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;For me, domestic experience matters. If a player is selected for Tests, he should have enough experience of playing First-Class cricket. Players should be selected on the basis of how much domestic cricket they have played,&#8221; he added.<\/p>\n<p>Khan recalled his playing days and said players then were selected on the basis of their domestic experience. &#8220;If you look back at our playing days, we had enough domestic cricket on our back. Players then were used to playing Grade II cricket before coming into the national team,&#8221; he highlighted.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;That is why today we barely see players like Javed Miandad and other former greats. Because we select players on the basis of their PSL performance or just a few matches. If I was to select the team, I would have gone for players&#8217; domestic experience,&#8221; he concluded.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><strong>READ:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/arysports.tv\/five-takeaways-from-the-t20i-series\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Five takeaways from the T20I Series<\/a><\/strong><\/h4>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>KARACHI: Pakistan team&#8217;s batting coach Younis Khan opined that players should be selected in the national team following their domestic cricket experience.\u00a0 Speaking to reporters, <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/?p=59316\" title=\"\u2018Social media put pressure on selectors for selection\u2019 Younis Khan\">[&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[1],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/59316"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=59316"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/59316\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":59318,"href":"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/59316\/revisions\/59318"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=59316"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=59316"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=59316"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
