Hafeez
Azhar mahmood(he probably wont be selected so hammad azam)
King afridi
Tanvir
ajmal
sami
gul
This team can win the cup easily in sri lankan conditions. and am really happy for sami the guy deserves a long chance in t20s and odis. the bowling will always be superb with tanvir and sami openingazhar mahmood first change. the three spinners to follow with gully at the death. i think nasir jamshed would make.a huge difference coz hes.in good form and either one of shehzad or nazir should partner him. a solid middle order with umar akmal, haris and malik and late hitters in mahmood boom boom and tanvir. pretty decent team

Good team, but isn't the tail a bit long for T20? I mean from Azhar downwards (assuming he is playing) it's a bit hit or miss. Afridi is great on his day and no one doubts Gul's ability to hit a ball but it still puts a lot of pressure on the top.
Nonetheless, I'd be very interested to see how well this side would do against a WI side that includes Gayle, Narine, Bravo, Russell, D. Smith, Roach etc.
