Oh bhai you can't just promote players down the order based on 1 or 2 innings
Shan Masood should come at 4 or 5 with Haider Ali.

1)Rizwan
2)Fakhar
3)Babar
4) Haider
5)Shan Masood
6)Asif Ali
7)Nawaz
8)Shadab
9)Naseem
10)Rauf
11)Shaheen

Iftikhar and Khusdhil need to go you cant have 3 power hitters at 4, 5 and 6.

You need proper bastmen at 4 and 5 with a power hitter at 6.
Oh bhai jaan chor do fakhar ki

He is finished and useless. He is hasan ali in batting

Fakhar is not in form so its a huge risk putting him on opening pair. It will put instant pressure on the team after he throws his wicket away.

Asif Ali has an average of 15 in his T20 international career which is below than many average full time bowlers in the world. His average of 15 is thanks to many dropped catches I can think of otherwise it would have come down to 10-12. This is unacceptable from any batsmen regardless of the playing condition, the situation in the match or whatever pressure. I don't remember if he has ever played more than 4 over in one game and we have given him ample opportunities in the last few years.

If anybody who does not deserve a place in our side, its Asif Ali to begin with...

To be precise I just checked his innings list and only once in his career he played 34 balls. In most of his innings he played under 10 balls before throwing away his wicket and he stayed not out for 10 times to boost his batting average from 5-6 to 15.86

Edit: Moreover, In the last 2 years Asif has an average of 12.08 despite playing wonderful innings against New Zeland and Afghanistan in T20i WC so how can we justify his place in the squad?
 
Characteristic of Captain

When team gets under pressure , he comes talks to Bowlers
Suggests them approach , based on his knowledge

Or he Sets the field according to strengths of bowler

Felt that when score went from 58/5 Wickets , to 170 runs , the Captaincy aspect of a Captain did not become visible.


1- Rizwan / Baber should continue to Open 100% this is our best combination
2- Instead of Fakhar Zaman , bring in Inam Ul Haq at #3


For Power Hitter
> Fakhar Zaman & Asif Ali are out best options the coach will have to find a way to ensure they are in top Playing shape


1) Baber
2) Rizwan
3) Inam-Ul-Haq
4) Iftikhar
5) Shan Masood
6) Asif Ali or Fakhar Zaman (Play with 1 Power hitter , only)
7) Shadab
8) Nawaz
9) Haris Rauf
10) Shaheen
11) Shahnawaz Dhani


We missed a guy like Saeed Ajmal specialist Spinner


Final Spot for Bowler Our Options
> Hasan Ali
> Wasim Jnr (All Rounder)
> Yasir Shah
> Husnain (19 Year old) need more grooming gave up 40 runs in final
> Naseem (19 Year old) need more grooming game up 40 runs in final

Jingoism aside it was a pathetic display by Pakistan 🇵🇰. Wholesome changes are required in the batting order.
Congratulations 🎊 to Sri Lanka 🇱🇰!
