The current 15-man squad has three more bowlers in reserve (Abdur Rehman, Bilawal Bhatti / Anwar Ali and Mohammad Talha) and only one extra batsman (Fawad Alam). Pakistan is infamous for a brittle batting line-up but has travelled to Bangladesh with as many as nine bowlers (including bowling all-rounders), only five batsmen and a forced wicket keeper. https://www.dawn.com/news/1090321/pakistan-must-get-its-batting-order-right
Agree … Pak desperately needs a specialist batsman and I am just astonished that on which basis they are going with 5 bowlers even they have Hafeez who has capability to bowl 10 overs. They have the weakest tail among rest of the teams.
