It's not a bad idea, but it isn't practical.

This one. The spinner, Kartik.

Oh, you're defending him too along with Dinesh Karthik?
Both equally terrible players.

Mohammed Asif in the Pakistan squad. If he can avoid testing positive for Steroids or getting arrested for drug smuggling before the tournament starts anyway.

He's been working in the National Cricket Academy for the last 9 months; it seems he wants to turn a new leaf.
Both havent got their opportunities enough. Murali Kartik is a very good spinner and has often been overlooked for silly reasons. Dinesh Karthik finds it tough because Dhoni has become captain and is indispensable from the team and India finds it a big luxury to have two wicketkeepers on a majority of the tours/series. In the recent ODI's vs WI, Dinesh Karthik played very crucial and valuable innings and has cemented his place as a backup in case any of the batsmen fail/get injured.

Karthik is miles better than Kamran Akmal and Kartik is better than Kaneria, frontline players for Pakistan.
Our final 15
Voges skipping the Pakistan tour clearly didn't harm his case, he should be the next batter in line instead of White. Based on that squad I would go for the following:
Haddin
Watson
Ponting
Clarke
Ferguson
Hussey
Hopes/Voges
Johnson
Lee
Hauritz
Hilfenhaus/Siddle

This is hilarious.
Firstly, I would say Ajmal has taken over as frontline spinner for Pakistan, but I can use both.
Ajmal averages 30.07, S/R 62.8
Kartik averages 34.16, S/R 80.5
Kaneria averages 34.57, S/R 68.7
That is in test cricket by the way.
In ODIs:
Kartik averages 43.46, economy 5.07
Ajmal averages 39.69, economy 3.92. Big difference in economy here.
Kaneria (although he doesn't play ODIs) averages 45.33, economy 4.79 - still lower than Kartik. Although Kaneria doesn't play ODIs so that's a non-issue.
Please, next lie Cricketman. Keep making up BS
Oh, Dinesh Karthik > Kamran Akmal. Keep making up BS.
In Test Cricket:
Dinesh Karthik averages 28.61 with 1 100, 7 50s.
Kamran Akmal averages 33.22 with 6 100s, 9 50s.
In ODI Cricket:
Dinesh Karthik averages 24.88 with no 100s, 3 50s.
Kamran Akmal averaes 26.66 with 5 100s, 3 50s.
Thank you, come again. Don't talk about Karthik's wicket keeping, he let like over 40 byes go in one innings and dropped so many catches as keeper in Sri Lanka (which was the last time I saw him as keeper).
Cricketman, you are a terrible liar / BSer.

I rather pick David Hussey or North over White Tbh.
White is only good for T20s.
