Pakistan's opening pair in ODIs / T20Is / Tests?

ODI: Imam and Haider Ali/ Saif Badar/ Rohail Nazir
Test: Imam and Shan
T20: Babar and FZ
 
Fakhar needs to work on him game.His shot selection is very poor.PCB should appoint Mohd Yousaf as a batting coach.Fakhar and Asif Ali will benefit from his coaching.Fakhar wants to hit every ball for four instead of waiting for the bad ball.

Asif Ali is 30+ with personal problems.

FZ is also ~30 and can not adjust his technique at this stage.

It’s better just to use FZ in T20’s until we find another young big hitter because he only scores once in every 10 innings.

Is it time to find a replacement for Fakhar Zaman?

As we all know Fakhar Zaman has not been performing consistently post CT, except for the Zimbabwe series and one cameo here and there it is high time we find an alternate opener who is more stable and can get quick runs.

What are the options available?

Shift Fakhar down the order and bring another player up in his place?

Bring in a performing youngster who can be groomed in his place for the next 4 years?
 
Dare i say it, bring back Ahmed Shehzad, guy has been training hard according to his recent social media posts, we need an experienced opener to work in tandem with Imam.

when people think the population of pakistan is 2.2 million instead of 220million, do you guys understand simple math? when you come up with such suggestions it makes me wonder the level of math in pakistan must be at an all time low :sigh:
 
Well ideally I would want Babar to open along with Imam. Otherwise maybe Shan Masood
