Bhai I am not doubting the quality of Hafeez or comparing with Mahmudullah... I am saying Hafeez is playing as a specialist Opening Batsman... so him bowling really well is a plus point which does not alter the balance of the side in terms of batting depth. Suppose Hafeez could ONLY bowl but not bat... I am saying he would not have been picked. Test sides these days play 5 batsman one all-rounder(if there is one) and 4 specialist bowlers (by which i mean their primary job is to bowl).
If we picked 5 specialist bowlers then our batting would be too thin so the attack chosen for this squad is right in terms of number
