Pakistan Tour of West Indies - March/May 2017

I really struggle to see the utility that Babar Azam provides in the T20 format. In future times, when we need in the excess of 160 and individual like Babar could really hold us back as he can't hit those big shots constantly enough.
 
Trust Pakistan to make a simply finish hard for themselves!!!
 
I think it is time for Pollard to go. He fails with the bat more often than not and he is not a DreRuss kind of player who is very hard to replace. Well played Pakistan. Very impressed with Shahdab.
 
I'd say Shadab Khan for Man of the Tournament. Hasan and Shadab both were brilliant. I am happy for Shehzad getting his touch back a little. As far as Kamran Akmal is concerned, There is no doubt on his intent but he was never a proper batsman and its hard for him to score as scoring in domestic and International are two different pressure. Kamran has been same with his bat just like he was before internationally. The ODI series should be his decider, It seems his last chance.

Congrats Pakistan on winning the series comprehensively :) Where is the indian guy dancing on the WI win last day, lol Anyhow. A Better team won and nice to see team gel in with Sarfraz.
 
Amir is not in the test squad.
I think it's time he's dropped due to he has not picked many wickets ever since his return.
Just 30 wickets across 11 tests since his return.
 
He is still the most economical bowler. He has bowled wonders at times. Made crazy Warner like anything on Aussie pitches. At-times, It felt like that he has been overworked. Maybe its time to utilize him better. Also he needs his magic back. The banana swing has been rare by him.

I have all the personal likeness for Wahab but from cricketing prespective, Wahab is the culprit among bowlers. Team is just dragging him. He hasn't given a single match winning performance in his career. 2011 Semi-Final was a fiver for him and WC 2015 we were lost by Australia, One Spell can't be dragged this way. A good bowler takes wickets. I don't buy the bouncers logic. Micky said Wahab will be weapon number 1 in Australia. He failed to deliver. I can agree with Shoaib's logic that he hasn't been used for attack and good in his career. Might be true..

And replace him with whom?

We are lacking a good seamster who Sarfaraz can turn to at any time. Wahab often goes for runs and can be very inaccurate, Junaid Khan has been off color recently and thus, Aamir is our only option at the moment.
 
Shadab Khan breaks into Pakistan Test squad | Cricket | ESPN Cricinfo

Pakistan Test squad Misbah-ul-Haq (capt), Ahmed Shehzad, Azhar Ali, Shan Masood, Babar Azam, Younis Khan, Asad Shafiq, Sarfraz Ahmed (wk & vice-capt), Usman Salahuddin, Yasir Shah, Shadab Khan, Mohammad Asghar, Mohammad Amir, Wahab Riaz, Hasan Ali, Mohammad Abbas

Pretty happy with the squad, but Sami Aslam should've been in for Masood, who is once again selected thanks to his father.
