Asif will be back provided he is back to full fitness and there is a thought of sending Sarfraz Ahmed as a back up to that ugly big teeth guy who calls himself a wicket keeper.
They'll announce a different Test squad I'd assume, like they've always done from as far as I can remember.
Actually thats probably a point in his favor. Wouldn't want him sulking around behind the stumps.
AWTA. Although for a second there I really thought he had turned the corner as far as his ODI batting after the tour in South Africa.
Not sure if Alam's batting is good enough to justify that.
Check his List A and First class record the lad averages pretty high in both forms.
I have seen them before, but from what I have seen he's not really fit for international cricket IMO. Though I can see the benefit of trying him out, just not at the expense of Abur-Rehman (spot the fan).
Fawad Alam is a very decent bat, yes he has the habbit of shuffling across the stups when facing swing bowling other then that he looks very capable he runs hasd between the stumps and seems to have a good decent cricketing brain.
Nah stick with Rao for me Tanvir is just a tail ender who can slog a few on the leg side.
Agree with the above.
Nah, not good enough of a bowler or a batsman to justify coming in for one our current bowlers.
also it won't be fair to replace him after one bad performance.. rao has been pretty impersive in his last number of ODIs that he has played for pakistan.
Agreed, can't leave out your best seamer for some two bit slogger with a cheap party trick action.
