Squad for test matches.
I think there will be some changes, some new faces, and some forrgotten cricketers being recalled. I think the squad will be like this
Test Squad
-Salman Butt
-Faisal Athar (the best batter in Pak's domestic cricket, is almost assured of a place in test team)
-Younis Khan
-Inzi
-Youhanna
-Asim
-Akmal
-Sami
-Akhtar (hopefully for Pak he will make it)
-Danish
-Shahid Nazeer (A pacer who last played in 1999. Has been the best pacer at domestic cricket and is a strong contender)
-Malik
-Hameed
-Arshad Khan (a forgotten offspinner, stands a good chance of recall even though he's very ordinary bowler)
-Rana Naveed
-Mohd Asif/Khalil/Razzak (i would go for Asif).
Others that can be chosen are Afridi( Has a good record against India and happens to be a spinner in Pak team lacking spin bowlers) and Taufeeq Umer.
One Day team
-Butt
-Faisal(if he doesn't fare well in test matches then Umer will replace him)
-Malik
-Inzi
-Youhanna
-Akmal
_Razzak
-Afridi
_Akhtar
-Sami
-Naveed
-Younis Khan
-Hameed
-Shahid Nazeer
-Khalil
Azhar Mahmood stands little chance of making it, someone like Yasir Arafat (a promissing allrounder) might get the nod.
Danish will probably again be ignored for onedayers.
