Pakistan 14-man squad

What's interesting is that if Inzamam is found guilty, will he be allowed to be replaced within the squad or will Pakistan have to manage a squad of only 13 players?

I'd say the exclusion of Kaneria is interesting, if not surprising.
Malik, Hafeez, Younis, Yousuf, Inzamam, Afridi, Akmal, Razzaq, Rana, Akhtar, Asif

Interesting point.

If he's not in the squad, does that count towards him missing games in a ban?

I remember in the UEFA Cup Newcastle got hit hard by that a couple of years back.

I remember some PCB officials raising this point in the press. They were supposedly going to ask the ICC. Don't know if they got that answer.

You usually take a specialist spinner to India, especially one of Kaneria's quality. Munaf's average is trash but he's a one-day regular because everyone knows about his ability and potential. The reason I only called the move "interesting" is because Pakistan have 3 solid part-time spinners in Afridi, Malik and Hafeez. The other reason is because of the statistic you showed above. This 14-man restriction is really screwing a lot of teams over. First Sreesanth, now Kaneria. Of all people, Rikki Clarke survived. :D

The squad looks good overall, but I would have taken Yasir Hameed over Mohammad Hafeez.
Why? Hafeez looks like our most solid player at the top of the order.

other surprising thing is the selection of iftkhar anjum. don't u guys think pakistan has giving him alot of chances? he have had enough chancess and hasn't prove himself yet.
here is anjum's oneday bowling
ODIs 19 888 675 13 2/13 2/13 51.92

instead it would have been good if they would have given mohmmad sami another chance. he is a much winning bowler. he is out of form it is right and he is trying to come back he had a fairly good test series in England.

and also they should have call saqlin mushtaq as spacial spiner for the icc trophy much better than danish kunaria. kunaria is a test bowler not one day.

I just don't think Hafeez is good enough at the international level, especially in ODIs. Hes a bit slow, and really why pick him when you can pick a proven (relatively) player like Hameed instead. Don't see why they dropped him really. Here's my ideal Pak side:

1. Shoaib Malik
2. Yasir Hameed
3. Younis Khan
4. Mohammad Yousef
5. Inzamam-ul-Haq*
6. Abdul Razzaq
7. Kamran Akmal+
8. Shahid Afridi
9. Naved-ul-Hasan
10. Shoaib Akhtar
11. Mohammad Asif

For this tournament we have Farhat/Hafeez in for Hameed and Iqbal in for Inzi. Its still an excellent side, and I think it can take us to the final and maybe even give us a shot at winning.

agree with u droping hameed was i think unfair. if u go back and check his last test and one day match he made half centry on both of them. his avrage is fairly good it is 38 in both one day and test. higher than butt, farhat and hafiz and i don't know for no reason he is out of the team.
other thing i didn't get was the selection of iftekhar anjum i think he hasn't proven any thing since he has been added to the team. he has been given alot of chances mohamad sami should have been in the team instead of him.
