Pity India refuse to play Pakistan these days.

I'd back the Pakis to beat them.

They should refuse to play anyone until they learn to bat.
Think of the great Indian batsman of recent years now reduces to this lot.

While Pakistan don't have the most talented crop at the moment, they can stick around and bat for time. Coincidence, they are the only major nation that don't have players that go around playing in every t20 league.

The nine listed, Jennings, Stoneman, Pieterson, Ali and Trott make 14.

Wondering if Trescothick ever opened with Cook, don't think so though.
