Disappointed at Parvez Rasool not getting a game in the ongoing ODI series against Zimbabwe, Jammu and Kashmir Cricket Association (JKCA) said the young all-rounder has lost a big opportunity to showcase his talent on a tour that was meant to test the second crop of Indian cricketers.

"It would not be proper to question the wisdom of selectors sitting here, but Parvez being a great all rounder surely deserved a chance", said JKCA Media Committee chairman, Ranjeet Kalra.

"This series was actually meant to test the talent of youngsters, surely a big chance lost," he said.

Rasool was the only player in the 15-member squad who hasn't got a game in the five-match series. Ajinkya Rahane was warming the bench alongside Rasool before the opening batsman got a chance in the final match today.
