In my opinion what Pakistan need to do:

Asif Iqbal -- DROP

Sami -- DROP

Kaneria -- needs practice, he's getting too predictable

Hameed -- DROP

We still desperately need an opening partnership that can lay a foundation and not be bowled out in the first 3 overs of the freaking game. We desperately need a seventh wicket all-rounder; we missed Razzaq. This day an age with the level of competition, maybe even a 8th wicket but that's asking too much from Pakistan.

I wanna see some youngsters come in, instead of going with the likes of Hameed, Iqbal and Kaneria time and time again. Let's bring in some fresh blood. Where the hell are the bowlers from the U19's that raped India's batting line just a year ago?

Asif Iqbal got dropped 20 years ago

Openers have been tried and tested,but it hasnt worked.I think Yasir Hameed should be given atleast one more entire series to show his worth.Sami should definitley be dropped.He only played because Gul and Asif were injured.The u-19 bowlers should be set for callups now i guess,since Shoaib Akhtar isnt getting younger,and the other fast bowlers havent done anything substantial.

lol, I meant Faisal Iqbal. Akhtar isn't getting any younger and he's looking for an acting career too it seems lol. The team relies so much on him that it's gotten to his head, and you can't really blame him for that. A healthy competition would bring his old lethal-self back and our bowling line-up would be unstoppable.

damnit...they make way too much noise at night !!!

Waqar Younis does Ok.I have no issues with Ramiz either.Amir Sohail pisses me off though.One,he cant commentate,and TWO,he doesnt have anything better to do than slam Pakistan.I hate Rashid Latif and Javed Miandad because of this too.They have their cricket shows here,and all they do is slam the team.You'd expect some sort of support,but no.I havent seen Miandad slam his worthless Nephew though.Sifaarshi Maa Ka Bacha.

true but he makes more vaild points than Rameez...Rameez just goes doe-eyed whenever he sees Yuvraj or Tendulkar...he needs to come out of the closet

[Zé Tahir]

I'm coming next December. Don't know if I'll be in Delhi though. I'll be in Amritsar, Qadian, Ludhiana, and hopefully Agra. And I'll wear my Pakistan jersey proudly everywhere

i think u r talking about anwar ali has he played first class cricket in pakistan but who will u replace kaneria with

Anwer Ali, Jamshed, Akhar Ayub..

I don't know who should replace Kaneria, but I do know that Kaneria's become to predictable.

yeah next december when india tour pakistan
its unfair that kaneria is being judged on one series i think he should be given a chance against aussies

Man I though the next series was in two years, this is great. It means I can attend at least an ODI in Lahore

Maybe I'm being a bit harsh on Kaneria, but we'll see.

not really he bowled shit in this series....couldn't even keep the runs down this time round...very disappointing...the only real spinning talent i have heard about is Manzoor Amjad, a young leggie who can bat a bit as well

 

[Ahmed]

he won't be dropped, but he really does need to show that he is still our no.1 spinner

 

[Ahmed]

any good batsmen in the waiting for pakistan

middle order, not really but there are a few promising openers such as Khalid Latif and Shehzad Amin (i think)

 

[serfaraaz]

he won't be dropped, but he really does need to show that he is still our no.1 spinner

why doesnt kaneria play one day internationals i think he is better than abdur rehman

is it because it was aganst india that u r overeacting kaneria didnt bowl well against south africa in pakistan and why was shahid afridi dropped from test squad

India playing ok thanks to individual brillance, but they are the laziest bunch of guys ever.
Couple of points that make them not near Australia.
-Fielding is average catching is good tho.
-Kumble fields are wierd why would you push 2 men back so early in match.
-Worst running between wickets i have ever seen.
-Dravid is finished is he not?
-Too much depends on individuals brillance they are not a team.
