anyway pakistan will always up its performance in world cups and that is the only series that matters in odis. in tests at the moment pakistan is just behind australia and south africa although i think in away series in those places this team might not do well but wouldnot be whitewashed. your also forgetting that rightfully this team is without butt amir and asif and the way they have coped since summer 2010 has been really really awesome
Sure Pakistan can beat India, but they can't do it on consistent basis, for e.g in a 5 match series, which will be very competitive but its difficult to see Pak beating India in that series, be it anywhere in the world because of Pak's batting. there only hope is when then their batsmen click, but even then India has the batting fire power to counter the bowling. An ODI series between these two giants at this time would be just mouth watering. I hope it gets arranged soon.
Are you kidding me, with the fragile batting line up of Pakistan, they won't be able to win any match in Eng, Aus and SA, a draw test match there will be a big achievement for them. They barely won a test match or two with Aamir and Asif what makes you think they can win now.
