So who do you think should captain the T/20, ODI and test sides and which players.

I think Afridi should still lead the one side teams, Younis should be dropped from one day team and for tests I would still favour Misbah as captain.

Afridi STAYS :biggthumb::is::lifey:

I am wondering WHY so many matches?

re: Pakistan Test Squad announced for Windies

have you forgotten his last six months or so as test captain.

5

re: Pakistan Test Squad announced for Windies

Misbah should definitely stay test captain. Replacements should be groomed for both Misbah and Younus, and maybe eased into the team, rotate the batsmen like the bowlers were. I dont think we have the luxury of completely eliminating them, as much as I still feel flush with anger when I hear any word beginning with Mis.

Misbah should be nicknamed Missed-by. Whenever hes leading the chase in an important match thats really the only question.

re: Pakistan Test Squad announced for Windies

Is Misbah back in the country yet? :5::hbk:

7

re: Pakistan Test Squad announced for Windies

he should stay as test captain but in ODI replace him with new blood....no more Misbah and razzaq in ODI

8

re: Pakistan Test Squad announced for Windies

without Misbah you will be taking a huge risk in test matches. There isn't a steadier replacement yet.

re: Pakistan Test Squad announced for Windies

ooo ireland will be playing against Pakistan :hmmm:

10

re: Pakistan Test Squad announced for Windies

And we will beat them. :stuck_out_tongue:

11

re: Pakistan Test Squad announced for Windies

I don't care who beats who, jo jeetay ga mein uski side pe ho jaun gi! :@:

12

re: Pakistan Test Squad announced for Windies

Tsk, Tsk. :nahi:

And they are playing in proper Ireland, i.e. Northern Ireland. :hehe:

Don’t mix politics with cricket, please. :snooty:

re: Pakistan Test Squad announced for Windies

so what is the story with junaid khan..we seem to have totally forgotten him....situation not looking good for him....if the guy has so much potential as claimed by our management when he was selected for the WC, why are not we talking about him for WI..prolly the best time to throw him in the ring....

younis shd be kicked out from ODI....but we need an anchor and shd seriously consider azahr for ODIs as well....before you start cursing me for saying that, have a look at his first class record in ODI matches

64matches 1786runs 47.00 average 5centuries 11fifties

kamran shd be done and dusted forever...if he ever plays, he shd play as a batsman...

i want hammad azam to be given a chance in place of razzaq in WI...this is the tour to try new players and groom them…razzaq claims 31 but he is already close to 35…his hand-eye coordination has seriously hampered plus the bowling speed has gone south as well…he may play some handy innings in WI slow pitches but he has passed his prime....

Misbah shd stay for both ODI and test matches and lead the test team

Omar gul really really needs to step up..after 8 years in the international cricket, they guy is still awfully inconsistent....and his test record is nothing but an embarrassment...he shd be a guiding force for new fast bowlers but he still gets lecture 101 on fast bowling form waqar younis…

We need a quality aggressive spinner for the test team as well….if rehman can serve, then he shd play consistently…somehow ajaml has been considered not good enuf for test matches...wonder why? But we need kaneria’s replacement in test matches

re: Pakistan Test Squad announced for Windies

Misbah is the only one who can be captain right now and specially since Younis is fine playing under him. I would replace him with Moyo in the ODI team and if YK should be told to bury his grudges along with Moyo.

re: Pakistan Test Squad announced for Windies

kuch cricket ziyada hee nahin ho gayee! All countries should have a break of atleast a month after the world cup

19

re: Pakistan Test Squad announced for Windies

I agree with bringing Azhar Ali into the ODI squad. He's a composed batsman the likes of which we rarely find and he's certainly going to be an improvement on Misbah. And Hammad Azam needs to be brought in too, the guy has real talent, we saw that at the under-19 World Cup. We're kind of short on all rounders right now with Razzaq getting on a bit and Fawad Alam being the most overrated player in the history of cricket.

re: Pakistan Test Squad announced for Windies

Azhar Ali is the next Misbah :frusty:
