Azhar and Babar are the two players who have a chance. Rizwan doesn’t do that well in conditions which have some spin

Home conditions - feel Azhar may be the man!
 
Babar Azam with 323 runs.

Any Pak batsmen who is capable of scoring a double hundred which most likely could be first Azhar Ali and then Babar Azam
 
Abid Ali is going to do something on this tour. His technique is fine for a low, slowish, predictable wicket.
 
Judging by the opposition's bowling attack & playing conditions at karachi & pindi, I think Faheem ashraf is the most likely to end up top scorer.
 
It has to be Babar Azam.

If not, Pakistan are in trouble.
 
Fawad Alam leads with 113 runs after his brilliant ton in the first Test.

Azhar Ali has 82 runs, Faheem Ashraf has 64 runs, and Babar Azam has 33 runs.
 
Babar to hit a hundred next test. Anyone want to bet against that?
 
I think it's gonna be Fawad, not because of his century alone but the fact that he remained really calm against SA pacers.

He did not give them any chances whatsoever, and he was disciplined in his innings. Had he not flicked it straight to the fielder, he'd have gone for a big one, maybe a 180 or 200.
 
My vote goes to Fawad. I reckon he will get another good 50 or 100 here, and take top run scorer of the series easily.

If Babar can somehow find some form, he has 2 innings in this game to also put his name amongst the top run scorers.
 
When your number 7, a bowling AR is the top scorer, then there’s some serious problems in your batting.

That was an easy prediction. Feemo is the best batsman we have. That's how much pathetic our batting is.

I feel like this doesn't do Faheem justice. This is his second series now where he's raised eyebrows with his batting ability. Give credit where it's due imo.

When did I not give credit to him geez. My point is when your #7 is the top scorer then that shows how bad the top 6 is
 
Ashraf did better in 3 innings than babar,azhar and fawad did in 4 innings.
 
Some of the numbers make for sorry reading:

Abid Ali 33 runs at an average of 8.25
Imran Butt 36 runs at an average of 9

Even Babar Azam will be disappointed with 122 runs at an average of 30.50
 
Abid Ali and Imran Butt should be thrown into the wilderness. Abid's purple patch has ended and Imran Butt makes Fakhar Zaman look like Hayden.

Both are from the Shan Masood's school for the nongifted.

Saud Shakeel and Kamran Ghulam should be made openers for the next series cause we don't have another opener unless we want to go back to Fakhar.
 

Would our lineup look better if Babar opened in Test cricket? Just a random thought. I don’t think he’s our best Test bat and I think he’s actually better suited to 3 than 4. But just to play devil’s advocate:

1. Azhar Ali
2. Babar Azam
3. Saud Shakeel
4. Fawad Alam
5. Kamran Ghulam
6. Mohammad Rizwan (wk)
7. Faheem Ashraf
8. Hassan Ali
9. Yasir Shah
10. Nauman Ali
11. Shaheen Afridi

What’s wrong with this lineup? To be honest it looks a lot more professional.

Usman Salahuddin or azhar should open
