We should also use this tour to get an answer on what should be our strategy of bowling attack. One side argues that since spin is our strength, we should fill up our arsenal with spinners. The other side says that no, our attack plan should be dependant on pitch regardless of our strength or weakness. Well, this is going to be a big test for pro-pitch people. England condition at this time is the best suit for pacers and if our pacers fail to prove themselves there, there should not be any confusion on how we should arrange our bowling attack. A big problem is that there is nothing for the pro-spin people to be happy about if the pacers fail. No team can be very successful without a good pace attack, and if the pacers fail, that would simply mean that the spinners has to make it up for the team until quality pacers come up.

I'm quoting myself from an previous article here for a reason. I think this argument is conclusive now. Does not matter what the condition is, we should pick our best bowlers. In other words more spinners than pacers. Our current bunch of pacers except Masrafee are not good for internation level. Until we get better pacers or the current bunch improves substantially, we need to use our spinners more than pacers.
