Bari wants 5 Bowlers?
Wasim Bari is asking for 5 bowlers against England in the upcoming Test series. Given that Younis Khan, Inzamam-ul-Haq and Mohammed Yousef (ex Yousuf Youhana) are not going anywhere, and the team will atleast need one specialist opener, and one wicket keeper, is this an indication that Asim Kamal may not be starting? If Pakistan wants 5 specialist bowlers, that only leaves for 5 batsmen, once Kamran Akmal is accounted for. As stated earlier, three of those positions are spoken for, leaving the likes of Salman Butt, Yasir Hameed, Shahid Afridi, Asim Kamal, Taufeeq Omer and Bazid Khan to fight for two spots!!
Wouldn't a much better tactic be to play Shahid Afridi as a bowler, giving you some leeway at the top of the batting order with two of the remaining five? Both Salman Butt and Asim Kamal need to play in this series. They are too good to be left aside.
