Re: 3rd ODI, Pakistan vs Zimbabve, Multan Cricket Stadium, Jan 27, D/N
This is third time in a row, we haven't been able to take 10 wickets against Zim. It is not like we do not have bowlers because usually we get quick wickets. Mostly because of Sohail Tanvir. I am really impressed by him. He is very athletic, tall, decent tail order and confident. The only thing lacking is pace. Another great thing to see was Waqar Younis monitoring bowlers before the match. This is great news. I don't know whether PCB and Younis have worked things out, but Waqar's presence is essential for players like Tanvir. If he can increase his pace along the way, he will be an assest for Pakistan.
Butt and Malik continue to dissapoint. This is why I don't like Malik, he can not lead the side, on top can not perform as captain. PCB needs to rethink the captaincy issue before the Australian series. There is no killer instinct.
