Lets see how Naeem fair in the next if outings, especially, in foreign conditions before we start coming out with superlatives.
But, he is set and seems to be in good touch (apart from wafting away at a few outside the off) -should get to a ton.

Not basing this just on this inning. I've thought he's the perfect #4 for a few years now. I was also right about Mushfiq and believed he would be a key player even in his early days; and people who doubted his abilities back then can't think of a squad without him these days. Same issue there - playing a very capable top/middle order batsman way too low down the order (#8) for years and expecting 50s and 100s.
