Our pace attack is a real worry. No matter how our batsmen does or how many runs we score, I just don't see us putting up any fight without any service from the pace men. Gone are the days of Mash-Rasel giving us quality 20 overs ( with rasel finishing his on the trot ). They are a distant memory now. Its unfair to lay it on the new guys like Shafi and Rubel. They are years away from intl quality. But, we have nobody else to take the mantle. The revolving door of new pacers are reminiscent of the days of revolving openers in and out of the sqaud. We must set up a national pool of selected eight-ten potential quicks and give them all the support staff, training facility, coaches, physios, dietary guidance etc from RIGHT NOW..
