@GoldenAsif

It is a pathetic rule for sure … and second sentence, you have a point there

I don’t think the situation is as bleak as you are suggesting

There will be no Misbah or Younis for sure but 33 year old sada bahar Afridi (will be 35 then) and 31-year old Malik (will be 33 then) will be around imo. i.e. following options

Mohammad Hafeez (will most likely be the captain in 2015 World Cup)
Shahid Afridi
Shoaib Malik (I am beginning to believe that he’s needed in the team now)
Ahmed Shehzad
Umar Akmal
Asad Shafiq (need 1 or 2 good consolidators in batting as well)
Umar Amin
Haris Sohail (about time he’s given a chance. have heard a lot about him plus him being a left hander is an advantage in ODIs)
Nasir Jamshed

Imran Farhat (will be 32 then) might be selected as well esp. if he shows consistency with the bat

Fawad Alam also has a chance

Azhar Ali (I don’t regard him as a limited overs player though)

As the world cup is in Aus/NZ we should groom Hammad Azam in place of Afridi.
