Pakistan lose last two, and Shoaib Akhtar?

As positive as the first three matches of the ODI series against England were, the last two have been just as negative. Pakistan lost the fourth ODI after a poor showing with the bat, which could have been even worse, if not for a belligerent 75 by Abdul Razzaq. The fifth ODI was even worse, as far as the bat was concerned, as Pakistan managed a sub-150 score, with only Younis Khan showing any fortitude with the bat. The bowlers did well to even make it close, but the batting must be concerning for the Pakistanis. And now, there is news that Shoaib Akhtar may have a new injury. These are concerning times for our national team.
