3) Salman Agha Jani
4) Fakhar Zaman Fauji
5) Hassan Nawaz Jahaz
6) Khawaja meray Khwaja Nafay
7) Muhammad Nawaz tu mera match winner
8) Abrar Mistri
9) Sufyan Muqeem

11) Salman Mirza LQ wala
12) Wasim Jnr. Shampoo
13) Usman Tariq Jhatka
14) Ahmed Daniyal Death bowler
15) Muhammad Abbas / Shadab Khan

I wish i could put Maaz Sadaqat in the squad.

why has Maaz has set the world on fire? The guy has been dropped from his BPL franchise due to non performance. Give the boy years to be consistent before anywhere near national squad

Open Challenge for anyone supporting tulla Agha - Babar will have a better SR than Tulla Agha in the T20 WC.

Lol dude the purpose of my existence isn’t to prove Agha is a better T20 batter than Babar.

That’s trivial.

I have bigger beef to settle. My focus is on Farhan, Saim, Nafay etc.

Though I like Farhan and Nafay....but saim appears to me Shahid Afridi 2.0...batter turned spinner

You guys don’t know Saim.

He is the real deal.

 

[alishahid]

Lets be realistic. Honestly speaking pakistan has a fair chance at this world cup as they have been having the same core of players for most of their last years t20 matches.

playing XI for the start of the worldcup

S Farhan
B Azam
S Agha
F Zaman
U Khan
S khan
M Nawaz
F Ashraf
SS Afridi
S Mirza
A Ahmed

Bench
Saim Ayub
Naseem Shah
Haris Rauf
U Tariq

I am going with babar as opener as saim has been strugling lately. Saim can come in if babar fails before india matches. Agha brings a good positive role at 3.

And also mirza has to start and get more time in the middle before the india matches.

Mirza is more suited for asian conditions and also he can come in and bowl after powerplay as well. Naseem is more of the hit the deck kind of bowler and will replace mirza if dew plays a part.

 

[Maher96]

Salman will not play at 7. NEver... He will play at 4... pushing everyone down

For gaya WC! He just needs to be the fall back batter game - when setting up a score he won’t be very good.

In chases send him up to throw away a wicket or charge spinners.

 

[BouncerGuy]

TBH, I dont care about the squad. I dont care about positions... I just want this team to win this WC... Simple...

Play misbah for all I care but If you win, you deserve the credit.

You need a quality squad to even think of winning a World Cup.

Pakistan are a better side than they were two years ago but I'm not sure they can go past the semis no matter who they pick

Winning against any sena plus india is alone bonus for pak.Definitely they cant go past semis.

 

[Forum363]

farhan
Saim
Salman
Fakhar
Usman
shadab
Nawaz
Faheem
Shaheen
Mirza
Abrar

That will most likely be the starting 11. The only debate might be Babar vs Fakhar, but he shouldn't be in the squad.

Naseem
Usman
Nafay
Hassan Nawaz

That would be our best squad. I would drop a fast bowler and play with 2 specialist spinners.

 

[Rana]

Babar having an unquestionable position in the squad is ridiculous!

 

[Obaidd]

I think we can do without Shaheen, Rauf and Babar for this tournament.

Please remind me what Fakhar has done to have an unquestionable spot in the team.

Why Usman Khan is still a part of the setup is also beyond me.

 

[Fast bowler6929]

No zimbabar and shaheen. I hope that ugly hack Usman khan is also kicked out from the squad.
Haris could be added though, he is a wicket taker.

Misbah should be the next coach. This fraud Hesson ain't it.

 

[Kianig89]

So if SSA & Babar are left out squad will be
1. Saim
2. Farhan
3. Agha
4. Fakhar
5.Nafay
6.Shadab
7.Nawaz
8.Faheem
9.Naseem
10.Mirza
11.Abrar
=========
12.Utariq 13.WasimJ 14.Rauf 15. Usman
