Sufiyan Muqeem and Abrar Ahmed must be in the playing XI at any cost

[Justcrazy]

Abrar Ahmed scored 23* (15) against New Zealand during the tri-nation series, he batted with Naseem Shah to save the Karachi Test against New Zealand in January 2023, when the ball was spinning well, and he batted with Saud Shakeel at Galle in July 2023 against Sri Lanka to allow Saud Shakeel to reach his maiden double hundred.

Then he should be promoted a little bit higher and see how he responds. You can test true mettle in match situations.

Let's say Sufiyan and abrar are both in one playing 11,

Then we have 3 bowlers, who's going to fill in as a no 7 batsmen? Pakistan doesn't have a Marco Jansen in their team.

TBF, there are not many "batsmen" from 1 to 6 either...

I mean seriously guys this boy bowled brilliantly in new zealand where shadab was getting hammered yet sufiyan got dropped from the team not sure he will be retained in odi either this has to stop if pakistan wants to be on top again.

They only need 1 spinner for the series. Abrar is fine.

Shadab, Agha and Khushdil are good second bowler options

Still Sufiyaan should have been selected in the squad.

Great thread in hindsight, add Hassan Nawaz and M Naeem in T20s too

You're right, pak made same mistake in ct 2024 and i hope they do not go with one proper spinner in asia cup and t20 wc.
