Re: 2nd ODI: Pak vs SA Gaddafi Stadium Lahore 20th Oct 2007
I think Nazir should get an other chance, and since PCB doesn’t include any other decent bowler so they will end up playing all three same seamers. However, it is 50 overs game, and they should stop experimenting with Gul. Rather give new ball to Gul and Tanvir, so that they could get an early breakthrough. Rao could contain runs but he is not a bowler who will get them an early wicket with new ball.
If Gul get wicket on one hand, Tanvir could produce another from other end.
So my squad will be:
- I. Nazir
- K. Akmal
- Y. Khan
- M. Yousaf
- M. Haq
- S. Malik
- S. Afridi
- S. Tanvir
- A. Rehman
- I. Rao
- U. Gul
They must utilize Gul and Tanvir with new ball.
P.S. Wish they had Mansoor Amjed in 15 squad. He is a good alrounder.
