West Indies Tour of the UAE - September/November 2016

The last 10 overs have been a pain in the backside to watch. Harsh, but true.
 
Last 13 overs : 2 fours , 5 wickets , 82 runs wtf ...
 
 
Babar Azam has more tons in a week, than Umar Akmal in his whole career.
 
Sohail can bowl some great deliveries but our captain didn't allow him to bowl his full quota. He should be selected for the next tour too.
 
Its always good to win series no matter how good or bad is your opposition but the important thing is how much the players and management have learned from this series. We are extremely short of good hitters in lower middle order. Sarfraz and Rizwan are not big hitters so they are just wasting deliveries. Rizwan should be replaced with Umar Akmal and use him as a floater between No.4,5 and 6. Rizwan should know that Sarfraz is his main competition in the team while its very important for Sarfraz NOT to bat anywhere less then No.4. IMO Sarfraz should open with Sharjeel because he is too good a talent to be wasted at No.5 or 6.

So I feel we should have a team like this,

Sarfraz Ahmed (C)
Sharjeel Khan
Babar Azam
Asad Shafiq
Shoaib Malik
Umar Akmal
Mohammad Nawaz/Hammad Azam (for seaming conditions)
Imad Wasim
Hassan Ali
Wahab Riaz
Mohammad Amir
 
What an awesome win Team Pakistan. Another Clean Sweep. A Big round of applause for Babar Azam. He is turning out someone very special. I need to see him more but I feels like an Inzy touch the way he carries his innings and bulldozed the opposition after getting established. We needed someone like him since Inzamam Left. Pakistan is shining with talent and New players are its future. Welldone Team Green
 
Younis withdraws from the day-night Test due to weakness caused by dengue fever.

Sohail Khan deserves a place, he is a big swinger of the ball, best in our team.

Sohail Khan is not an ODI or T20 bowler. He will go for plenty of runs against big teams and we don't get suitable conditions to swing the ball in limited overs anymore. He is very unfit and similar to Irfan, he has this tendency to break at crucial time.

To me he is very unlike Inzamam, He is more like Indian batsmen. Inzamam was aggressive by nature while Babar Azam is lot calmer, Inzamam required couple of boundaries to get going while babar needs singles and doubles to start feeling comfortable. Babar plays probably more like Miandad to me.[DOUBLEPOST=1475768997][/DOUBLEPOST]

Now this is a wonderful opportunity to try Babar Azam in Tests, Younis will not play forever and Babar is a good talent to replace his position in future.

Sohail swings the ball more than Amir, we lack good swing bowlers and Sohail is what we want.
