Pakistan split series with India

Pakistan shared the honours with India, after losing the second ODI. More concerning than the loss, however, has to be the poor performance of Mohammad Yousuf and also from Shahid Afridi, and perhaps also the rest of the batting squad.

In the last 10 ODIs, Mohammad Yousuf is only averaging 22 runs, while Shahid Afridi is averaging a measly 10.77. This should be concerning for the squad, and the coaches are going to have to do some extra work to get the Pakistani batting sorted out. With the opening slots still not sorted out, Yousuf and Afridi need to click more consistently for the squad to have any hope of scoring a sufficient number of runs.
