What's new

Your Pakistan T20I Squad for the West Indies tour (2017)?

1-sharjeel khan
2-Umar Akmal
3-Babar Azam
4-Haris Sohail
5-Sarfaraz Ahmed
6-Shoaib Malik
7-Shadab Khan
8-Imad Wasim
9-Sohail Khan
10-Mohammad Amir
11-Hassan Ali

Potentially a good team but Sharjeel is most likely gone. Secondly it is extremely unlikely Umar Akmal will play as an opener. Haris Sohail has barely played any games in PSL and is untested and needs to perform in domestic before being considered for selection. Lastly, Mohd. Amir has had a horrible PSL and needs to be dropped.
 
1-Zalmi needs to play Haris.
2-It isn't looking that bad for sharjeel now, Inshallah he will be cleared.
3-If moeen ali can play at 6 for england, don't see how shoaib can't.

he has been tried at number 6 multiple times, but it hasn't come off . .
at 6, you need a dynamic player who can come in and go from ball 1 . . not someone who needs time . . malik is someone who needs time . . thats the problem with our batting line up . . babar, malik, sarfaraz . . all play in the same way . . they all need time . .

Malik is a good reader of the game . . and is a lot more destructive when he has his eye in . . I do see a lot of value from Malik (as he has shown in a few games last year) at 4 . . i don't see value if he is batting at 6 . .

I'd even have Imad Wasim at 6 . . Amir Yamin at 7 . . Shadab at 8
 
WHY do so many people want Kamran???

he's 35 for God's sake- what future does he bring?!? a no 8 team should only be trying to build for the future

him and his 26 ODI average have no room in the Pakistan team

problem is malik is too weak against pace to bat at 4, at 6 he might as well strike a few. Remember this is still pakistan team, so won't be unusual for him to come in the 25th over.

In the fist game Haris played, he was rotating the strike well. Look he is one of the best batsman in pakistan, we need to take a risk and include him in the side.

You are right. Ideally I would not want him but his PSL performances can't be ignored and since the thread is abt PSL he has to be considered. If you ask me Kamran and Shehzad have been the best Pak openers in the PSL. Fakhar has played at 3 but can be adjusted. The only other guy I can consider is Babar Azam. Play Babar as opener and bring someone else in the middle order but hard to say who tht person can be.
 
This would be my team for the next few series so they get consistent chances:

1. Shehzad
2. Fakhar Zaman
3. Babar Azam
4. Malik
5. Sarfaraz
6. Umar Akmal
7. Shadab Khan
8. Imad Wasim
9. Sohail Khan
10. Amir
11. Hassan Ali

12. Hassan Khan
13. Talat Hussain
14. Usama Mir
15. Rumman Raees
16. Irfan jnr

why exactly can't PSL performances be ignoted??

let me ask you this, if Misbah or Afridi had excellent PSL outings would we want them selected for T20 / ODI?

what about Asad Shafiq?

there are certain player with whom (primarily because of their age) it just doesn't make sense to select them to the national team, no matter how good they are

a 35 year old player gives you nothing
 
My team for nxt series would be

sharjeel (if available) otherwise shehzad
fakhar
Babar
malik
akmal
sarfaraz
amir yamin
shadab
wahab
amir
usama mir

reserve
rumman raees
hussain talat
anwar ali
mohammed rizwan

i would never ever ever pick players who cant play till 2019 world cup. its hilarious how ppl still want Irfan kamran and sohail. its ti.e to move on.

The return of Kami is inevitable it seems :facepalm:

I hope he flops like no tomorrow, because even an ok performance would mean his continued selection leading up to the WT20 where he would inevitably fail.

You forgot Mohammad Hafeez too.

Not sure why people are including Umar Akmal in their teams. He flopped in the tournament and so did his team. Nowhere near a professional athlete physique and attitude-wise either.

It's simple. He could smash bowlers around the park six years ago and he is naturally talented, which means he should continue getting selected for another decade. :afridi

Sohail Khan is old and unfit. Anwar Ali is below-par. You forgot Mohammad Nawaz who will be lethal in WI and is very clutch. Otherwise, that is a good 15.

Nawaz isn't in the camp otherwise I would have had him down also I think after Anwar Ali performance in psl he will be in t20 team although I would want aamer yamin
