You have mentioned Umar Akmal as a wk and he is not there to be selected as wk strange......

 

[icyman]

Zexy's made a slight mistake out there. Umar Akmal is a batsman and will not be available as a keeper.

 

[Paki007]

i dont think so because pakistan is gonig with just one wk and a poor form of kami can allow Umar to keep

 

[icyman]

Cricinfo does list him as an Occasional keeper. Also, by that logic, every player listed as an Occ, Keep will have to be made available for selection as a keeper, which won't be possible.

Sorry, pick from the rest please.

 

[Abhas]

Registered.. Found selection easier for this group.

 

[ZexyZahid]

Umar Akmal is the reserve wicketkeeper. And he is most likely to play as batsman, so he is added as batsman.

 

[ZexyZahid]

It took me a lot of time to select the players for my team. I might switch some players after the last warm-up match (Pakistan vs England).

 

[icyman]

This group was easier to select than the previous one. Main thing here- we need to select our reserves properly too.

Panyangara replaces injured Rainsford

Tinashe Panyangara added.

 

[ZexyZahid]

The big surprise in my team is that I don't have a pure Pakistani bowler in my team.

Wahab Riaz has been taking a lot of wickets lately, but Gul is being considered the best ODI Pakistani bowler. Also the associates could struggle against Akhtar's pace and spin bowlers could make an impact like Rehman and Ajmal. Junaid Khan is being labelled as the newest youngster that could have a breakthrough. He already got three wickets against England today in the warm-up match.

 

[Paki007]

i feel Wahab Riaz will be the highest wicket taker of the tournament

For Pakistan

 

[ZexyZahid]

Somebody got Ponting in his team? Somehow I feel that I should include, but I don't have any place for him.

 

[Paki007]

i had decided that i will select him over his performance against Spinners in Warm ups didn't impress me so i would not select him

 

[icyman]

@ Zexy- I have Ponting in my team. Surprisingly I could fit him in there.
