Here is the pakistani Squad for both the ICC Champions Trophy and Triangular Series this month in the Netherlands:
Inzamam-ul Haq (captain)
Yousuf Youhana (vice captain)
Imran Farhat
Salman Butt
Yasir Hameed
Younis Khan
Shoaib Malik
Shahid Afridi
Abdul Razzaq
Moin Khan (wicket-keeper)
Mohammad Sami
Shoaib Akhtar
Shabbir Ahmed
Rana Naveedul Hassan
This shows us that there are two new batsmen..
Nazir and Danish Kaneria are kicked for the ICC Trophy, while Afridi and Salman Butt are recalled.
And in my opinion its the right decision to take Salman Butt in since he has performed very well in Pakistan A in the past.
But i'm not happy with the selection of Navedul Hassan, since Umar Gul is a much better bowler..
Of course he isnt in form because of an injury but he can still pick the one or other important wicket, what we havent seen from Navedul Hassan in the past.
Danish Kaneria is for me also a much better player than Navedul Hassan.
Im very shocked with this selection, lets see how he will perform.
