Batting worries me a great deal but I would go with the following
Open with:
Sarfraz &
Hafeez
Middle order:
Babar Azam
Umar Akmal
Shoaib Malik
All-rounder:
Shahid Afridi (c)
Wicket keeper-batsman:
Rizwan
Spinner:
Imad Wasim (can bat as well)
Seamers:
Umar Gul/Anwer
Wahab or Irfan (Since Wahab can bat will prefer him over Irfan)
Amer
Wild cards: Sohaib Maqsood, Sharjeel Khan, Mukhtar Ahmed

Imad should do well on Indian pitches.
Re: ICC World T20 2016, Your Pak XI
Please no Anwar and Shahzad drop them forever
Our bowling lineup should be
Gul
Amir
Wahab
Irfan
Afridi
Re: ICC World T20 2016, Your Pak XI
Our bowling is going down the drain as well. Nobody except Amir really deserves to be in the bowling lineup. Wahab is a mediocre bowler who just knows how to bowl short. We cannot keep picking him based on his one-spell performance against Watson (and Watson isnt even a good batsman anymore). Irfan is just OK and Gul is past his prime.
Its quite disappointing to see the decline in our arsenal of fast bowlers. With Waqar Younis being coach, one would expect him to teach these bowlers the art of yorkers, but I cant remember the last time any pakistani bowl one.

Pretty much agree to this except that I’ll definitely play Wahab and pick one of Umar Gul/Anwar/Irfan as 3rd fast option

Sohaib Maqsood should not be a wild card... rather sent to the wilds (i.e. wilderness)
Re: ICC World T20 2016, Your Pak XI
Nawaz might get picked for World T20 and even Saeed Ajmal could be back in the side especially so as Yasir is unavailable for 3 months
