Njdude can't really drop Misbah plus I don't agree with your batting order
1- Shazaib/Imran Nazir 2- Kamran Akmal 3- Younis Khan (c) 4- Mohammad Yousuf 5- Misbah-ul-Haq 6- Shahid Afridi (vice-captain) 7- Abdul Razzaq 8- Shoaib Malik 9- Umar Gul 10- Asif / Mohammad Aamer 11- Saeed Ajmel
It may be too much to ask Akmal to both keep wickets and open in 50-over games and if he is reluctant to open, Malik is a good option as the second opener
Salman Butt though he has scored one or two very good one-day hundreds notably against India and Australia he should be our last resort in limited overs games - wastes too many balls, can't rotate strike, poor fielder etc.
yep you've got a point there ... However Shaoib malik aint an opener... Specially not ODI, And if he isnt openeing therez no point having him bat at number 8.... Maybe if we only loose 3 wickets in first 35-40 overs then we can send Razzaq and Afridi earlier ?
