The rotation policy, which is put to effective use by other countries such as Australia, is not feasible in Pakistan due to the players’ insecure nature, said chief selector Iqbal Qasim, 

There have been calls to test young talent in order to groom them for the future, which will prepare them for the time when they need to replace the seniors in the squad, but Qasim felt the Pakistan seniors do not like being treated this way.

“It doesn’t fit here as players are insecure and they never would want to be rested,” said Qasim. “The present crop of players is in a rebuilding process and we are trying to form a good combination. We are in fact in no position to rotate players as the phenomenon isn’t feasible in our culture. Players start obsessing about their place rather than giving their best.”

Qasim admitted the team was still undergoing a rebuilding process, which has been the case for some time now, and added that some limitations hindered the progression.
