Ahmad Shehzad has played 47 International matches since his comeback in January 2013 against India in Twenty20 Internationals. Ahmad Shehzad, before his comeback averaged 33.14 with S/R of 77.11, 622 runs in 27 innings. Where as after his comeback he has scored 1831 runs in 50 innings with an average of 38.14 where as the S/R jumped from 77.11 to 78.31. Ahmad Shehzad has also scored 5 hundreds since his comeback.
Can he become a great in th efuture?
Almost all 3 of Ajmal, Hafeez and Afridi are certainties in Pakistan's line up but can Pakistan really afford to play them in the world cup?
2015 World Cup is well on its way and I don't see how Pakistan is going to put up a substantial fight since 90% of our success depends on our spinners because all of our pacers barring the injury prone Irfan are mediocre and the spinners will be neutralized in Australia/NZ.
Wickets in Australia and NZ are quite flat and in a nutshell, teams will look to out-bat each other.
Will we be able to do that with Fawad and Misbah occupying 30 odd overs game after game?
