Predict the highest run-scorer for Pakistan in the ODI series against England

[Mueez]

My hunch is it will be Babar Azam.

He looked in GOAT form in South Africa, middled the ball beautifully and was a treat to watch.

Who do you think will be Pakistan’s highest run-scorer against England in the ODI series?

Discuss.

 

[Mp812]

Imam

Done.

 

[Arsalan Pro]

Done.

No option for Faheem, but one for Imad?

Looks like PP have generally accepted that Faheem isn't a all-rounder.

Looks like PP have generally accepted that Faheem isn't a all-rounder.

Faheem has a LOI top score of 28.

 

[Arsalan Pro]

Tough call between Babar and Haris, who are 2 of our best batsmen.

Babar is going through a lean patch of form in ODI cricket for some time now, but with the expected line-up which somehow Haris Sohail doesn't make, he will only get limited chances in the 5 match series.

Don't expect Fakhar and Imam to perform consistently, less said about M Hafeez, Sarfraz and Malik, the better.

Abid, Asif and Imad won't get proper chances to bat.

Hence, will go with Babar who seems the most likely outcome.

 

[FastBowlingAllrounder]

Has to be Babar. Malik won't let Haris play enough games for him to even get close. Babar is our best bet. Maybe Imam to some extent but most likely Babar.

 

[uberkoen]

It'll be Imam with a couple of 75-80 strike rate centuries to secure his spot in the world cup playing 11

 

[Energy]

If Babar Azam is in form and has a 50+ average tournament then Pakistan is going to go far. None of the other batsmen are capable of consistency although Fakhar, Hafeez will be needed to play crucial knocks at different stages.

 

[GreenKhan]

Big pressure on Babar. He has yet to score a 50 in 10 one day innings in England.

 

[Abu xaid]

Abid Ali

 

[moghul]

No option for Faheem, but one for Imad?

Looks like PP have generally accepted that Faheem isn't a all-rounder.

Faheem should bat at 10 or 11.

 

[Arsalan Pro]

Faheem should bat at 10 or 11.

For me, he shouldn't be in the 15 let alone the XI and bat somewhere.

 

[msb314]

Babar Azam!

 

[MenInG]

I am going for Mohammad Hafeez!

 

[Chokli]

I am going for Mohammad Hafeez!

Going for the experienced campaigner

 

[Hasan123]

Babar Azam.

 

[The_Odd_One]

Babar Azam's SA performance is as overrated as Wahab Riaz's 2015 WC performance. Scoring just one 50 and averaging 48.57 in 5 matches is nothing special.

Imam will be most likely Pakistan's top scorer with a couple of centuries.

 

[hadi123]

My vote went to Babar Azam. We all know he is a great batsman but he needs to start winning games for Pakistan
