i would make three changes from squad that played against WI in Uae

Khalid Latif
Sharjeel Khan
Babar Azam
Saad Nasim OUT Fakhar Zaman IN
Shoaib Malik,
Sarfraz Ahmed (Captain)
Umar Akmal
Mohammad Rizwan out Shahzaib hasan in
Mohammad Nawaz
Imad Wasim
Rumman Raees
Sohail tanvir
Mohammad Amir
Wahab Riaz out Yamin or zia ul haq
Hasan Ali
 
would much better have likes of Ammad Butt, Yamin, Fahim Ashraf or Hussain Talat as the pace all-rounder in place of Tanveer, Wahab and Aamir (Aamir deserves a break) .... also would drop Nawaz for Asghar or Shadab Khan or Irfan(the leggie).. also would kick out (permanently) umar akmal and bring in either Harris Sohail (if fit) or any1 else from domestic.
 
fixtures

1st T20I
Friday March 31

agree but won,t expect too many changes in squad from inzi though if any one of these guys perform in PSL

it will be hard for selectors to ignore them

Mohammad Nawaz (non performer) so replace him M.Asghar..

Imad Wasim
Rumman Raees

Sohail tanvir(rubbish) I'll go with Junaid..

Mohammad Amir
Wahab Riaz out Yamin or zia ul haq
Hasan Ali

Couple of changes otherwise the team is perfect..
 
We only need a few changes from the squad against West Indies in the UAE. I guess there's no point posting the changes I'd make now because may as well wait until the PSL starts to see who does good
 
I hope we finally put a lid on Sohail Tanvir's career.

No Amir,Latif and Sarfraz?
 
Sharjeel
Azam
Akmal
?
Malik
?
Sarfraz (c)
Imad
Amir
?
Irfan

Don't want to see Hafeez or Riaz in the side
Umar MUST bat at 3/4, if he continously fails in them positions, drop him.
Malik ideally is a 5
Babar i dont think is a t20 player but playing in the format will help him
He isn't a 3
Must only open and keep a solid sr
No 10 (15) here
If he is at 3
I'd expect him to play even slower coming in a wicket down so best to play him as an opener or not at all
 
Very difficult to say before the PSL.

There's a few names who you expect to see on the team sheet such as Sarfraz, Amir, Sharjeel and Imad. However, there are a lot of vacant spots up for grabs and players who perform well in the PSL should be rewarded with a call up to the national team.....


.....or is that too logical an approach to expect from the PCB?
 
Sharjeel Khan
Fakhar Zaman
Khalid Latif
Babar Azam

We will have to wait for psl. But so far as things are this would be my 15 man squad:

1. Sharjeel Khan
2. Khalid Latif
3. Babar Azam
4. Fakhar Zaman
5. Malik
6. Sarfaraz
7. Aamer Yamin
8. Imad Wasim
9. Amir
10. Hassan Ali
11. Junaid Khan

12. Rumman Raees
13. Shadab Khan
14. U Akmal
15. Shahzaib Hasan
 
1. Shehzad
2. Sarfraz +
3. Hafeez
4. Malik (c) (Best T20 bat! Check CPL etc.)
5. Rizwan
6. Imad Wasim
7. M. Nawaz
8. Sohail Tanvir
9. Wahab Riaz
10. Anwar Ali
11. Irfan

Can't lose!

Well we think the same when this comes from Hawkeye he is a sensible person

Come on folks, why would this be sarcasm?

Let's accept it. There's no one better than Malik in the T20 world as of now.

Then, Sarfraz is the ultimate opener/finisher - can punish any bowler sending him out of the park. At will. With a sweep.

Shehzad is well known for his aggression, and Anwar Ali has already won us matches while finishing for Pak. Rizwan just needs 1 or 2 more matches to transform his fielding into batting form.


He vehemently demands for Umar Akmal's selection so I have my doubts.

Umar is good, but I'll sit him out as we have better hitters in my team.

Is it just me or anyone else notice potentially 3 wicket keepers for 2 match series Sarfraz Umar Rizwan

I really dont understand the logic behind this( save on player travel cost accommodation food expenses ect)

No agree but Shoaib Malik willfully declined any captaincy offers even with a club team then why he would be captain. Anwar Ali well less said the better it is Amir Yameen also (Almost) won us the match vs Zimbos in Zimbabwe. To be very frank he is an Avg player with both bat and ball and we are looking for someone special like Razzaq or Azhar

Haha...another flight of fancy.
Ppl need to understand PCB lacks vision, they've been screwing with Pak cricket team for as long as i can remember just for short term gains.
They dont have the courage or the balls to make some revolutionary changes.
Pakistan society and that goes for inzy as well, is risk averse and conformist in the extreme.
So keep dreaming...

Haha, bro, that team is obviously a sarcasm.

It's the worst team that you can assemble. However, the reality is, 80% of the REAL team that PCB chooses will be the SAME as mine. :)

Malik, Sohail and Sarfaraz are all too 'slow' for T20 cricket. You can only play max one or two of them.
 
We need more power hitters in t20 and another pace bowler in place of Wahab. Under Sarfraz our t20 team is gelling nicely.
 
Why don't they try Asif Ali in odi and t20 he had a pretty good psl last year
 
1. Sharjeel Khan
2. K Akmal/Khalid Latif
3. Babar Azam
4. Sarfaraz
5. Malik/Haris Sohail
6. U Akmal
7. Aamer Yamin
8. Imad Wasim/Nawaz
9. Amir
10. Hassan Ali
11. Junaid Khan/Rumman Raes
 
shadab khan and usama Mir today will play against each other lets see who win the battle i don,t mind either of

them for westindies t20 squad
 
Hassan Khan of gladiators needs to be added asap, a wonderful prospect to invest in.

He's a positive batsman

a nice bowler

a cool fielder unlike other youngsters
 
ahmed shehzad
shahzaib

babar
fakhar
sarfraz
maqsood

hasan khan
nawaz
hasan ali
amir
wahab

shadab

After watching some of the psl I would have this T20 squad touring wi:

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

12. Rumman Raes
13. Aamer Yamin
14. Hasan Khan
15. Maqsood
 
For T20s, I think Babar should open. We don't have space for that many accumulators in the middle order.

Babar
Fakhar
Sarfraz
Malik
Akmal
Shadab
Imad

Would be my top order.
 
Your T20 team for West Indies tour?

I think we've all had a good look at our talent pool. Some good young players have made their presence felt and definitely deserve a call up in the shortest format. It's about time we get rid of the deadwood and give these young guys a chance.

The lack of upcoming batting talent is really worrying tbh. Aside from Fakhar, no one has been able to make any sort of impact.

Anyways, I'd go with:

1) Fakhar
2) Babar
3) Umar
4) Malik
5) Sarfraz
6) Shadab
7) Yamin
8) Imad
9) Tanvir
10) Amir
11) Hasan

12) Usama
13) Rumman
14) Haris
15) Shahzaib
16) Asghar
 
The fixers have put a huge dent in our T20 top order. Glad that Babar is opening for KK and looking as classy as ever. We may even need to have Babar open in ODIs.

I like your eleven, however, I thoroughly dislike Tanvir and feel like he is finished. Even in the PSL he has been bang average. I'd rather play Rumman in his place.

Lol fair enough, I just feel throwing too many youngsters all at once might backfire. And Tanvir isn't that bad in T20s tbh. :)) Joint-leading wicket-taker in the PSL so far.

So far Sohail Khan, Fakhar Zaman, Shadab Khan, and Rumman Raees have made a claim to the T20 squad.

Kamran Akmal started with a bang but hasnt done any thing notable since - His age is already not helping. Pretty quiet tournament for Shehzad too which means Fakhar & Babar should open the batting in T20s.

6 debutantes in a squad of 15?

I don't think you have followed Inzi's selection decisions. At max we can expect 1 or 2 changes.
 
1. Fakhar Zaman (he shud play at 3/4, however we dont have openers)
2. Babar Azam (he shud play at 3, however we dont have openers)
3. Haris Sohail (we are not concerned of t20 ranking at the moment, thus give him some play time)
4. Shoaib Malik
5. Sarfraz Ahmed
6. Umar Akmal (sadly there is no other hitter in the country)
7. Sadab Khan
8. Aamer Yamin
9. Hasan Ali
10. Sohail Khan (he's LOI player, NOT Test)
11. Rumman Raees

12. Asad Shafiq (based on PSL performance)
13. Ahmed Shehzad (do we have any other option?)
14. Imad Wasim (interchangable with Aamer Yamin)
15. Mohammad Irfan (Lahore Qalandars)

Pakistan T20 team post PSL 2017

Well based on performances of the PSL 2017 how would you stack up the side. It may be a little early but I do think we have seen enough to make some changes to our side.

1) Kamran Akmal
2) Fakhar Zaman
3) Babar Azam
4) Sarfraz Ahmed (wk/captain)
5) Shoaib Malik
6) Umar Akmal
7) Shadab Khan
8) Imad Wasim
9) Hasan Ali
10) Sohail Khan
11) Mohd. Irfan

Reserves:
1) Ahmed Shehzad
2) Hassan Khan
3) Mohd. Rizwan
4) Mohd. Sami
5) Anwar Ali Khan

I think this side in the future can be very good for Pakistan in T20s. There are some obvious players who failed to make the cut - Mohd. Aamir, Hafeez etc.
 
ODI team is more important. CT around the corner

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
 
1-sharjeel khan

8-Imad Wasim
9-Sohail Khan
10-Mohammad Amir
11-Hassan Ali

Very good team. I'd have Yamin over Shadab/Imad in England but all 3 should be in the squad.

You're fitting Harris sohail in on the basis of what he did 2 years ago . . he needs to make runs in first class before he can be considered for national selection! teh 2, 3 games he played in the PSL, he looked completely out of sorts . .

Secondly, shoaib malik is not a number 6 batsman . . best spot to play him is at number 4 on which he has done well . .

Sharjeel khan is probably not going to be available for selection . . Umar Akmal can be given one last shot . . and opening may work . . so he can't come out with his riduculous statements . .

so for me, No harris Sohail until he makes runs in the domestic competitions . .

and number 6 is the crucial position . . In my opinion, one of the main reasons pakistan has been struggling is because we don't have a good enough number 6 batsman . .

We have no choice. Not enough ODIs till the champions trophy starts

PSL performances definitely should impact CT selections but I think Pakistan Cup and recent ODI performances will be taken into consideration more. Frankly it will depend upon selection of West Indies tour. If selectors genuinely give chances to deserving players and they perform we might see new faces or else it will be a similar squad as of the past.

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.
