That's not the reason, read below. Chan KB is 21 this yr, 1 yr younger than CWF. He's in back-up, not elit back up. The ones i call 4 muskeeters are elit back up = TCS, CWF, Liew Daren, Arif. Already mention many times lah, Zulfaldi with KLRC. Hiyaa, if Hafiz & KBH got kicked out, who to play MS2 & MS3 in TC while waiting for "Super juniors" to mature ? Go KLRC pull LTS, Sairul? Unless you think Iskandar, Zulfaldi,etc can meet the challenge in senior level now. We'll see in this yr WJC how they do. Korea now also got PSH only, the young Hong also out in early rounds, on home ground.
