Thats probably the only thing I don't like about Youhana, the best batsman should always be #3. He has had most of his success at #3, and he scored 2 back to back centuries at #3 as well.
Why O Why?

yeah...Why? He plays well at no.3...and oh yeah Umair..Congrats on reaching 5000 posts! :)
hes a talented batsman....i think misbah ul haq would better...hes scord half-centuries against the aussies in kenya when the whole team was failing....he didnt do bad in sharjah either....he should be given a chance.
Yup he is a ODI material just look at him. kitna sundar hey :)
Please no more nazir or afridi. Nazir was a constant failure after some initial success. He was a failure then and he is a failure now. Check how he faired in domestic games for a new look team right after WC. IT is easy to remmebr such players when our batsmen are playing below par . Heck someone even mentioned WASTI and enquired why was he being axed when he scored 80 something in WC99..arghhh..I respect everyones views but please dun dig up players like Wasti or even Ijaz. I hate these players with passion.

For any sports you need talent and nazir is surely one of them who has lots of it. Not so sure about Faisal just coz he is a relative of Miandad that doesnt make him autom. a good cricketer or a talent as Miandad was one!
Nazir has potential and knows how to play shots...execution in perfection!
I havent seen such stylish batsman in Pak team since years. Have you?
He has big problems with Spinners, but I think and I hope that can be learned!
Nazir was just another sub continent bully, he was torn apart by decent bowlers in foreign conditions, he still has a lot of fixing to do before coming back to international level.

Most of our batsmen struggle outside of the sub-continent. Nazir is a lot more talented than Afridi or Iqbal IMO, and plenty of good judges like Ian Chappel rated him pretty highly as well. The questions against him are more to do with his attitude and shot selection. He needs to learn to play straighter early on in his innings, apart from that, he's got some fantastic shots, you can't compare him to Afridi.
Well at least some one has some idea of players capabilities…Totally agree with you :k:
Although I must say Afridi was one as well but wasted it.
You Never learn so you never succeed.
i would say, he is a good batsman, just needs some grooming....Imran Khan, Aamir Sohail have all full faith in him.....definitely he is a technical batsman.......so let him play for some time and then be the judge of his capabilities....we should let him play for quite some time, and if he doesnt perform after that, then he should be axed.....
