It was Sarfraz by default. The alternative was Latham, who was even worse

Why would you select Amir (opening bowler with just 2 wickets @ 72) and Hassan Ali (average 36, ER 6.41) when both Ferguson and Henry had better numbers?

Was that just to squeeze more Pakistanis into the team?

And why the heck would you omit Munro, who averaged 31 with a SR of 145 and bowled 13 overs with an ER of 3.13??

I don't think you thought this through
 
Not sure I'd have anyone from Pakistan. All their bowlers did better than ours. Sarfraz was a better bat than latham but still nothing great and Latham probably kept better. Only one who might get in is Fakhar, but even then don't think he would get in as an opener, would probably have to play down the order as Guptil was better and Munro had quite a lot of impact this series and batted at a fantastic strike rate. Fakhar might be able to get in if you replace Nichols or Williamson but it's not like either of them had a bad series they were both fairly good.
