Saqlain is a world-class spinner, but I have tickets for the test weekend at Lord’s and I want to see FAST bowling. I just hope our top order can make the runs. If they do I can’t see England surviving against this attack.
Pakistan Zindabad!

I like this line-up … but I will bring Saleem Elahi not because that he is a better batsman than M.Waseem .. just for the reason that M.Waseem has not played much international cricket in the past year and half , unless he produces some good results in the side matches .. Elahi is for sure is not gonna produce anything worthy but atleast the team would know what to expect .. I would include Saqi, in place of Razak we need someone who can control the ball and pace of the batting and he can do that very well, Razak is not fully fit and his allrounder abilities are more suited for onedays … I would stick with five man batting line .. I believe in Imran Kahn’s theory that 6th batsman option does not work if your first five fail the 6th can not do jack.. plus Lateef, Waseem, and Saqi ( had a very good season with bat in English county last summer) could chip in … so my pick
Saeed
Elahi
Inzi
YY
Younis Khan
Lateef
Saqi
Waseem
Waquar
Samee
Shoaib (if he can last more than five overs!)
Hey one more thing
These things are hard to explain
For some it seems strange... to swallow
The frontier of our minds
Is the last place we find
But maybe the first place we should go
