Shoaib Bashir: Can the loan system be relied upon to develop England's frontline spinner?

Absolutely ridiculous state of affairs ! A 21yr old off spinner who has already played 15 Test Matches unable to command a regular place in Somerset side ? Somebody has got it wrong ! My opinion, he should be playing in theSomerset second eleven fighting for a first team place by bowling plenty of overs and winning matches and in the process becoming mentally tougher instead of being welcomed by other counties for a few matches, that is of no value whatsoever to himself or the club who are accommodating him. He also needs as quickly as possible to improve on his first class record of 66 Wkts at an average of 49.25 !
