Never mind. You didn't understand what I tried to say. No chance of playing five days with the current players. Thats the reality. Have you seen some of the scores of the NCL? 200 all out is pretty much the standard, whether the team is full of attacking batsmen or made up off grafters. Actually at this point in time, our test batting is worse than say two years ago with the decline of Bashar ( never grafted that guy, but scored at no3, something any team must have to counter attack the opposition ), Pilot, JO and Rafiq. Since, its a rebuilding period, and I anticipate the team to be very young, results don't really matter. I will back naturally talented attacking batsmen in every position with the hope they will learn at the job to quote from Sohel. In the process, maybe they will learn to play long innings...
