What position should Haris Sohail bat at in Tests?

[MenInG]

Now that he is back and we all accept that he is here to stay, where is ideal position in Tests?

 

[babajee]

Number 3 as he can have a big impact on the game

 

[Bubby]

I think he should bat at 4, from what I have seen,azhar Ali should open, while shafiq look accustomed at 5,but the question remains for u guys is no. 3 and that is the position usually suitable for best batsmen in the team, Alam should bat at 6,sarfaraz at 7,even if you play aslam at 3, who will be the other opener ?

 

[Hasan123]

3 or 4.

 

[Rayyman]

4 or 5

 

[Saj]

I think he is ideally suited for the number 3 position in Tests.

 

[SarfiBabarHaris]

Number 3. Always!

Started a thread on this very topic- number 3!

 

[Mir jibran]

should bat at one down and azhar should go back to open

 

[The_Odd_One]

He's not ready for #3. Scores pretty 50s, then throws it all away. He should bat at #5 for now.

 

[khurram39]

with 2 left handed openers i think its better he will bat at 4 so that asad can bat low.

I'd have Harris at 4 and Babar at 3 . . If Babar can't float at 3, then he needs to be sent back to Domestic cricket . . babar is not a number 5 or 6 batsman . . plus, Babar's strength is playing fast bowling!

For me the test team needs to be:

Azhar Ali
Opener 2
Babar
Harris
Asad
Sarfaraz
Amir Yamin (all conditions) - or a better fast bowling all rounder
M. Amir
Hasan Ali
Yasir Shah
M. Abbas
* In UAE conditions, you drop one of M. Amir or M. Abbas and play a second spinner!

 

[Navdeep Srivastava]

Harris should bat at 4, he is little bit of attacking batsman, so no. 4 is perfect position for him.

 

[WhenSultansBowled]

He'll bat at #3 very soon.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

At 3.
