oh yaaa i forgot akhtar

ma bad let me add him

its changed now

Umar Gul isnt an effective opening bowler..so the team management would need to take that into consideration too before finalizing the 11..unless of course Umar Gul improves that aspect of his bowling - that would be ideal

I would kick Kamran Akmal out and play Zulqi. Even in this situation, I would prefer playing Younis as wicketkeeper. And then Razzaq can open the batting with Butt, cuz he has done amazing in the twenty20 cup as opener.

So get Kamran out play Younis and play Razzaq as opener, or is that a really bad thought?

Razzaq as opener lol...that is a very bad thought. As much as you hate Kamran Akmal you should admit that he could be huge for us in the World Cup on those pitches.

lol Razzaq as opener is not something we should try less than a year before the WC - but even though Kamran's keeping is horrible (even in one day internationals, saw that many times) we could use his batting. I would prefer another keeper/batsman instead of Kamran sure, but we dont have much time to groom one.

stick with kamran akmal

dont give up now

InshAllah he will be instrumental for us in ODI and T20s

i actually think that if YK has made himself avaiable for ODI's then he shud be selected in the 15...u dont have to install him immediately in the eleven...if others fail then YK can come in..

ok bring him back for last test and odi series.

@everyone including fawad alam in the final XI.
its not possible guys. dont even dream about it after the inclusion of yousuf n possible return of YK. This will b the possible final XI for ODI n T20 series.
1. Salman Butt
2. This slot is open as we may see imran farhat or any other opener
3. This slot is also open, we might see shoaib malik in the final XI n a lil bit shuffling in the batting order to settle shoaib malik or we might see azhar ali playing at num 3.
4. Muhammad Yousuf
5. Umar Akmal
6. Shahid Afridi
7. Kamran Akmal
8. Abdul Razzaq
9. Muhammad Aamir
10. Saeed Ajmal
11. Shoaib Akhtar (most probably will play selective ODIs n asif or gul will replace him for the rest of the matches)

for the T20s, Kamran akmal will b open the innings, n Gul will b included in the team. n malik will b replacing muhammad yousuf. That number 3 slot is open for selection in T20s n may b we'll see imran farhat in T20s too. lets just wait for the final call. I'll try to post final XI again after the announce of T20 n ODI squad.

My Team For ODI.. Please Give Comments

1. Salman Butt
2. Kamran Akmal
3. This position is now a problem for us as younus khan is not available may be we can see azhar ali here or may be shoaib malik
4. Muhammad Yousuf
5. Umar Akmal
6. Shahid Afridi
7. Abdul Razzaq
8. Muhammad Aamer
9. Umar Gul/Muhammad Asif

6. Shahid Afridi
7. Abdul Razzaq

I actually agree with your ODI team. Would have Malik at #3 after further thought.

I agree with your T20 team as well but would actually have Farhat instead of Shahzaib. It's Farhat's natural game to slog...if there is one format he should actually be in the team for it's T20 then. Or open with Butt and Kamran with Fawad in the middle.

yup i agree wid u but u know our stupid board ppl dont want fawad in da team... but i think u r right we should put farhat here in place of shahzaib rest is fine..

shahif afridi ki kia aukat he, ko wo dosro ka future decide katre.. galli type cricketer he..

My team would be:

1. Butt-ocks
2. Fawad Alam
3. Younis Khan
4. Mohammad Yousuf
5. Umar Akmal
6. Shahid Afridi
7. Zulqarnain Haider
8. Mohammad Aamer
9. Mohammad Asif
10. Shoaib Actor
11. Umar Gul

No Umar Amin??? whats up with that!!
