Some good comments black warrior.

I totally agree that pak should aim higher and not err on the side of perpetual caution.

That being said, you need to have a plan and I think misbahs will be typically risk averse.

This looks good.

Wahab, Junaid, and Gul all in the side along with Ajmal and AR.

Lots of good bowling options now (if Junaid returns on time).

Bring it on England :cool:

I hope Akmal's fielding has improved since last time.

Still backing England but I hope the wickets have some juice Pakistan's seamers aren't a poor bunch by any means.

Gotta post agains on I'm on the Nelson.

Kaneria should have been there for Raza who has done nothing during the season. Sadaf tailed off as the season went good they are not playing him when he's out off form. Overall yes a very good squad.

That's pretty impressive, England batmen have put on 22 test tons in just over a year and taken 208 wickets at about 27

That is just terrible, worst possible time for me, going to struggle with this more than I did the ashes.
