Pakistan's next T20 squad

[shamaan]

No Dhani or Saim in this?

Are you being serious about saim ?

After last few games here's my latest and realistic take on the latest side.

Fakhar/sharjeel
Rizzy
Babar
Hafeez
Sohaib/haider
Shadab
Imad
Faheem
Hassan
Qadir
Shaheen

Although if it was upto me shadab would be benched for Danish and nawaz in for imad. Shadabs batting has been a let down so far and his bowling has fallen off a cliff badly in the last 2 years. He would be a liability with the ball. Don't see him getting dropped however as Vice captain.

Love the look of these new look squads from mo wasim. He's so bold and brave with his selections. Ifthi, Khushdil, talat all rightly dropped. Id love to see the following team given a prolonged run together ready for the WT20. Genuinely think they can win the tournament if they're given a real chance to shine together.

Sharjeel
Rizzy
Babar
Hafeez
Haider
Danish
Nawaz
Faheem/waseem jr
Hassan
Qadir
Shaheen

If we need a more penetrative seamer then faheem then throw waseem jnr in and should the need arise for a better 3rd spinner shadab can come in for Danish. I really hope they don't start shadab. His bowling has fallen off a cliff in his desperate hope to become a big hitting top order batsmen. He's completely neglected his bowling and its been dire for 2 years. His batting isn't good enough to warrant a place in the top order for us so he deservedly only gets a place on the bench. A useful option to have no doubt but Imo the above side gets us deep into the WT20.

Shadab's performance has declined significantly
Sohaib is a liability in fielding alongside sharjeel.

Shaheen

This would be my playing xi

Sharjeel
Rizwan
Babar
Hafeez
Danish
Haider ali
Shadab
Fahim
Hassan ali
Qadir
Shaheen

If danish is to be given a go then he should get both the Zimbabwe series and the south africa series.

Everyone who is slotting Fakhar and Sharjeel at opening is making big mistake. They just do not have the temperament and technique to face pace bowling. No matter how much dreams you guys have, they will never be successful in the opening while playing internationals. Instead Fakhar can come down to middle order to be more viable since his play is more suitable to face spinners. In my opinion the team order should be of following:

Rezwan
Babar
Hafeez
Fakhar
Haider
Shadab/Danish
Faheem
Nawaz
Usman/Hasnain
Hassan
Shaheen

Big fan on wasim and his selections. My side from his latest squad would be:

Sharjeel
Rizzy
Babar
Hafeez
Haider
Danish
Faheem
Nawaz
Hassan
Qadir
Shaheen

No doubt Shadab will start in place of Danish as he is the vice captain but he is completely undeserving of a place with his bowling form in the last 2 years. His desire to become a big hitting middle order batsman has completely negated his strength which used to be his bowling. He isn't a better leggie then qadir or zahid imo and his batting isn't good enough for a top/middle order slot in the international side therefore he shouldn't start. His bowling has fallen off a cliff and he looks a shadow of his 2018 self.

Really think Muhammad waseem jnr has the potential to be a special talent. If waqar can fix that run up he could become a genuine 145kph hard hitting all rounder. I would be very inclined to start him as faheems bowling isn't penetrative enough for me as a 3rd seamer. MWJ has shown in the PSL that despite his tender years he bowls quick and with intelligence. Definitely a diamond in the dirt that kid and very much pro including him against Zimbabwe.

Overall I'm extremely happy with wasims bold and brave selections. I think the above side has more then enough to win the next couple of series and make a real statement at the t20 world Cup. All bases seem to be covered on paper it's just a matter of sticking with them and giving them a chance to perform and succeed as an XI.

Really excited
