It's not cricket anymore. The big 3 monopolise cricket now and only PCB stood up to them before having no choice but to join after the other boards sold out.

This guy Attaullah (aged 25) is in the squad and has only played 1 first class game and no list A or T20. In his one and only FC game he got a pair (0,0) and he makes the squad

The main question is who's son, son-in-law, nephew, cousin, rent boy is he from the PCB board?

Fall in line boys

Haha uwa? Wouldn't trust that Dr Robert joker at all. Bear in mind he has just criticised the "secrecy". They're just embarrassed that their procedure was so god awful for so long. Just wild spurious accusations without nothing to back it up.

Kash,

Get an article up about West Indies pulling out of india tour. Cricket is in a state of shambles. Apparently thd board have pulled out not West Indian players. BCCI not happy. What a farce

A14 there is a article up

You seen the A team today? Haris and Babar smash the Aussie bowlers. I bet neither get selected and instead serial failure Hafeez will walk in

Yeah kash, I noticed. They deserve a chance, but you're right I can't see PCB not picking hapless hafeez

Hafeez is a Misbah choice. We all know what will happen. New ball nicked to Haddin.

A team putting the senior side to shame.

i will honestly be suprised if aus won in the tests. spin problems cannot be eradicted easily. Although it would be pretty close as Pakistan are in shambles atm, will be interesting to see how well they do.

Pak squad: Ahmed Shehzad, Asad Shafiq, Azhar Ali, Taufiq Umar, Younus Khan, Shan Masood, Haris Sohail, Misbah-ul-Haq (Capt), Mohammad Hafeez, Sarfaraz Ahmed, Ehsan Adil, Muhammad Talha, Imran Khan, Rahat Ali, Yasir Shah, Zulfiqar Babar.

A big harsh on barber Azam I feel, but it'll be interesting to see how these young lads do against an established auss team

Hafeez

If he is the opener or even in top 3 I will refuse to watch the test series.

I think Azam will be used in the NZ one day series. He still has work to do in first class but this knock will give him a good boost.

Who the fek is this Imran Khan?

I thought Imran Khan was sat in lahore.

excited to see how mohammad talha does

islamabad*

So it looks like Hafeez and Shehzad will open for Pakistan tomorrow. Taufeeq will have to warm bench. Yasir likely to debut..

Oh great. Fully expect to wake up with Hafeez out within 4 overs if we bat first.

Patheticstan. Hafeez only lasted 5 balls. Great decision to bring a serial failure back

Just got up, good start for aus.

Shehzad will think twice when walk across the stumps in future. Don't know why he doing that again and again..... Hafeez not only didn't score, but wasted a review too....

Do you live in UK Duncan?

Flat track in dubai but we are making it look like something else.

Can't see us winning this with that bowling line up and a fragile batting order......22 test wickets for Pakistan's specialist bowlers in this test, which are equal to Johnson's wkts in his last test series.

Who the fek is this imran khan? He wasn't that impressive in the A game. Only took one wicket. Smells like another PcB relative.

I do indeed lash.
