There have already been several controversies over the team selection for the South Africa tour. When the squad was initially announced earlier this month, no captain was named, and a day later Misbah-ul-Haq was surprisingly put in charge (http://www.cricinfo.com/pakistan-v-south-africa-2010/content/story/480522.html) of the Test side. Then, coach Waqar Younis (http://www.cricinfo.com/pakistan/content/story/481382.html) and limited-overs captain Shahid Afridi (http://www.cricinfo.com/pakistan-v-south-africa-2010/content/story/481234.html) complained that the selection panel had not consulted them before picking the side.
Chief selector Mohsin Khan said the pair was included on the back of their performances in last week's Faysal Bank domestic Twenty20 competition. "Both Hasan and Riaz were outstanding in the Twenty20 national event so we recommended their names, which were approved by Pakistan Cricket Board chairman Ijaz Butt," Mohsin said.
