Younis Khan in ODI's was probably worse than Steve Smith is T20i's.

I think Imam Ul Haq should be there in place of Misbah ..
It's a bitter pill to swallow but a lot of the great Pakistani batters just didn't do justice to ODI cricket ..
Imam Ul Haq with less than 80 games is already 8th on the list of most hundreds by Pakistani batters in ODI cricket. Misbah's SR and no hundreds really is unacceptable for a top 10 batsmen. I would put Shoaib Malik at no.9 followed by Imam at 10.

No I don't think so , but what a respectful player he is with all the abuse he gets from his own fans , always carries himself with elegance and class ..Probably top 10 most elegant batsmen to watch.
He isn't even top twenty let alone top 5.
Even since 2020, I can see at least 5 batters better than him (Gill, Rohit, Head, Mitchell, Iyer are definitely ahead, you might put Kohli and Heinrich Klaasen in there), and this is supposed to be his peak.
He's a good no. 3 batter but he's probably on the level of Joe Root/Kane or below them.
