I don't want to act as the sour curd on a good day for Pakistan. But, there is still lot of room for improvement. I think, their openers are fine. They generally kick on when they get to 50 and in general give decent starts. Babar Azam, has to convert. The day and age of a ton, or 50-60 at numbers 1,2,3 is long gone. Once you get to 50, you need to make it really count and make it big specially in a side like Pakistan because you have no idea which side of the bed the others have chosen to wake up from. Either, the others go for it around Azam (which I think is ideal) or he really catches the bull by the horns and goes big and long (less likely). I don't think Hafeez is still worth it at 4 but it won't change now. So I'll let it be. But, I would prefer Sarfaraz at 4, Malik at 5 and Asif Ali at 6 with Imad at 7 if they need to go big or Shadab followed by the 3 quicks.
