We should not forget Misbah just had one bad series : Iqbal Qasim Quotes from Iqbal Qasim, who was on PTV Sports We should give Waqar Younis ample time before judging him It takes some time for the coach to assess the players and choose the correct team combination We cannot say playing 7 batsmen was the wrong strategy to go with In the past, the West Indies used to play with 5 pacers and there was no stopping them We should not forget Misbah just had one bad series Misbah has been a stalwart for Pakistan cricket and he is the man for the crisis Herath is an excellent bowler and he uses his variations very well Pakistan have always struggled against left-arm spinners It takes time for batsmen to read the bowler completely I remember the Australians and others had so much difficulty in reading Abdul Qadir initially Saeed Ajmal was also very successful and almost unreadable when he was first brought in I am very happy for Sarfraz Ahmed as his hard work has paid off He was the only batsman who troubled Herath and scored runs freely Sarfraz Ahmed plays a lot of club cricket in Karachi and thats why he was successful there He faces all kinds of bowlers here with different variations Its high time that Sarfraz should make a comeback into the ODI team This may also help Umar Akmal reclaim his lost batting form Fawad Alam is another player who has grabbed the opportunity with both hands He plays for my department and I know how hard he worked when he was out of the team Sharjeel Khan has a lot of talent, but he needs to prove his worth in international cricket Khurram Manzoor and Sharjeel Khan have been given ample chances, but they have not clicked Sohaib Maqsood is a product of the U19 system and another immensely gifted player Initially, people thought they had got another Inzamam, but it has not been the case Sohaib showed glimpses of brilliance in the series, but lacks exposure We need more and more A-tours, so that our developing players can get ample exposure Sohail Tanvir has never been able to fulfill his true potential He has thrived in leagues abroad, but needs to emulate that for Pakistan as well We must have a clear plan as to what to do in the next series The pitches and the conditions will suit us, but we should not take Australia lightly I am sure the Australians would be well prepared and would know what Pakistan can offer
