Best Batting Averages: Fawad Alam, Azhar Ali, and Salman Butt. Suprisingly all 3 were snubbed

Potential: Ahmed Shehzad, Sohaib Maqsood, Sarfraz Ahmed and Umar Akmal


Team according to my view:

Ahmed Shehzad
Salman Butt
Sarfraz Ahmed
Sohaib Maqsood
Umar Akmal
Azhar Ali
Fawad Alam
Wahab Riaz
Mohammad Aamir
Junaid Khan
Mohammad Irfan

I think Fawad Alam is captaincy material, but to make his career long it is better that he will not be a captain, other wise cricket mafia seating in big posts will kill his career and they don't care about Pakistan and they replaced PCB as Panjab Cricket board. We have to think as a Pakistani and nothing else. I am Pakistani and nothing else

 

[hunter_hunted]

Only one who has Charisma and Experience for Captaincy is Hafeez

 

[Rain]

Shamefull choice. Thy dont deserve it.

 

[Green Arrow]

My choice will be either Ahmed Shehzad or Sarfraz for captaincy

 

[xyxmt]

Those who can't find talent in their city will surely start saying these things. What they keep forgetting is the fact that the guy not going in their favour is Shahryar Khan, the PCB chairman who is apparently an urdu speaking,

I was raised in Karachi, in the heart of cricket playing area called Nazimabad, thats where cricket 20/20 format started in early 70s. Cricket was a passion, in the evening your will see one street light up and there is a 20/20 day night tourmanent going on...that is when Karachi produced excellent players....now no tournaments, no cricket grounds cause all taken by land Mafia.

 

[Umair Nawaz]

So far Sarfraz has played 39 ODIs and in them played only 2 good games. He has a long way to go to prove his worth as a Captain.

i will like sarfraz since under his captaincy pakistan won the u19 wc in 2006.

 

[airmarshal]

I don't like to get into things like that but I had to cuz the guy thinks Lahoris have influence and they are paindus.

Yes I agree on this one. I dont like this type of characterization.

I would bring back Imran nazir as opener and work on Nasir Jamshed to improve his game.

Oh please!!! Imran Nazir has been tried many times. Yeah I can agree to work on Nasir Jamshed game. But please stop recycling players who have been given ample chances.
