Not Terrible
Like our team when you consider all the injuries we are currently suffering, the Oram - Franklin issue isn't that big and I think they should just play who ever is in better form with the bat. But since our attack is slightly understrength Oram's experience comes into a bit more I reckon.

Butt has now registered ducks in his last T20I, his last ODI and his last test (albeit in the 1st innings).....
Oh never mind, his last ODI before this one, he also got out for nought.

Why is the man selected? Has he shown good form recently in any domestic league?

Was wondering when someone would moan as to why Butt is in the team (as I seem to remember reading lots of Pakistan fans being annoyed at that).

Was surprised to see he averages as high as 38 to be honest.

He is one of the better openers we have, inconsistent though.

Has done well aginst very good bowling attacks in Tests and has been pretty good in the limited overs format of the game, but as I said earlier not very consistent.
