American cricket selection

I've not got insider knowledge of American cricket to be able to tell you if this article maligning the selection of the USA cricket team is accurate, but it does sound like there is some politics coming into selection. No real surprise there - it's the case in many developing (and some fully developed) cricket countries I guess.

The player that the unidentified writer is most critical of the USA board for selecting is Nasir Javed who Cricinfo list as a 44 year-old leg-spinner. It'll be interesting to see how he plays....
