My 15 would be: Hafeez, Jamshed, Nazir, Umar Akmal, Shafiq, Malik, Afridi, Razzaq, Gul, Sami, Sohail Tanvir, Junaid Khan, Cheema, Ajmal, Raza Hasan/Hammad Azam, and Kamran Akmal.

I agree with your 15 amir. As much as we slate kammy, he can bat. Which can't be said for some of this bunch. No misbah?

Isn't haFeez captain, I mean Wtf does he know?

Actually, Afridi they do say he's the one that knows his cricket from all of them... They say sometimes he talks a little too much or gives a bit too much advice etc... I see that as a good thing because then at least he's not completely clueless

I think what Hafeez will do is balance the team out well, I can see him picking the likes of Razzaq, Akmal because he'll see that they're required and that's what we've been lacking.

What would be your 11 from that squad?

I'd pick...

1. Imran Nazir
2. Mohammed Hafeez
3. Kamran Akmal
4. Umar Akmal
5. Shoaib Malik
6. Abdul Razzaq
7. Shahid Afridi
8. Sohail Tanvir
9. Mohammed Sami
10. Umar Gul
11. Saeed Ajmal

Junaid Khan should play, to be fair because he has seemed to have mastered SL conditions.

Razzaq? Didnt anyone see Razzaq for Leicester? He almost double the size. As for Nazir, this is a walking wicket so I don't understand why you are getting all wet over him. Misbah should have also returned but good to see Goofy is back.

My team:
1 Jamshed
2 Shehzad
3 K Akmal
4 U Akmal
5 Hafeez
6 Afridi
7 H Azam
8 Y Arafat
9 Gul
10 Ajmal
11 Junaid

Forgot about Tanny so position 8 could be either Tanny or Arafat.

"don't understand why you are getting all wet over him"

I thought you wanted Nazir back?

And as for Razzaq his bowling is shocking, very, very shocking.

Nah Amir that's Afridi who wanted him back. For me he is spent force and the same applies to Razzaq and lets not forget what a shocking fielder he is too so i'd rather go for the younger and more athletic Azam.

Seriously, you don't want Tanvir did you not watch the T20 and ODI series that guy has to play. His bowling has improved and more importantly he's fit and doesn't have any injuries... All of these were major problems for him before. He's bowling the right line & lengths and he's useful lower down...

Nazir, shocking in bowling conditions but would do well in Lanka. Don't think they'll include him though.

Spot on kash, hafeez should drop down the order. Nappies it vs big teams and pressure situations

Agree. I'd have Azam over Razzaq, Hammad Azam hardly bowled in that series v England then he went to the BPL, got some bowling under his belt and I believe he took the wicket of Afridi... I mean, wtf!!

For me the people that have to play: The captain of course, Afridi, Kamran and Umar Akmal, Gul, Ajmal, Malik...

Gul and Malik... Why?????!!!!!

Amir I forgot about Tanny but my next comment was to put Tanny at 8 over Arafat

Afridi, Nazir is bad on any track against a half decent bowling lineup.

Calm down

Gul because we have to keep faith and Malik because if you've been paying attention Pakistan have been collapsing everywhere, right? And, recently when given the chance Malik has been Mr. Realiable... We need him, trust me, at first I didn't even want him in the team, but he's actually good. He did well in the SL series when he played.

You know Yasir Arafat would be more useful in the Tests think about him coming in and batting lower down now? Wouldn't he be useful... They should've picked when he was a little younger, when he had pace etc... Too much domestic cricket has ruined him.

We've got a young all-rounder in Azam, then an old one in Razzaq then Arafat's in the middle.

Amir you need to stop per-ving at his wife man

I don't want to offend her, but I would never look at her, if I ever saw her in the street. Malik went through all that shiite because of her

Amir you are right about Arafat. He was a good pace bowler that could bat but now he's a medium pacer that bowls more slower balls due to all the T20 cricket he plays. He was poor for Lanchs but has won plenty of trophies over the last 5 years in England.

I thought Kamran was in trouble with PCB, has that been cleared up?

All cleared up, hope... You know the PCB it only takes one meeting.

All cleared up, hope... You know the PCB it only takes one meeting.

After palms have been crossed with silver?

Amir, we have shown Gul faith for far far too long. Whens the last time this guy actually performed wonders in a tourney/series?? T20 2009. We are now almost in 2013. 4 years of faith for naff all

Malik - Agree we do lose wickets quickley, thats why i'd have shafiq in my team. Better still, they should really have included misbah. Better striker of the ball and less annoying and didnt do his nikkah over the telephone

I would still pick Gul, two T20 tournaments he's particpated in and twice he's been leading wicket taker... Let it be.

As for Malik, Nikkah over the phone What if the line was funny? Call back in one minute, it can wait

Razzaq
