Inzimam Bhai, why cant we change Zulfiqar for some good bowling all rounder. This man very old, cant bat good cant field good either unless he has some good parchee.
If we can include some bowling all rounder it will be a good choice i guess.

Ahmad Shahzad, Umar Akmal and Ajmal should have been given chance in last test.

Imad Waseem should be playing test cricket. He is a brilliant all rounder and should replace Zulfiqar or Nawaz. He MUST be considered for Australia /New Zealand Tour

After winning the series, perhaps it would have been better if the team selector experiment with different combinations or different strategies and tactics keeping in view the upcoming World Cup. The management should also consider giving opportunity to the players waiting on the bench to give them a feel of international matches. With the series already under the belt, we should use the opportunity to give the back-up players more international experience.

@Mohammad Salim you r right but Misbah is acute defensive and won't allow any changes in team to secure another win and better his record as a captain.

Does not matter as Windies are going to lose third test also! Though it would have been better if new faces were given the chance.

Probably just the right time to blood Asghar and see how good he is after all. And time to give a chance to Umar Akmal in tests. The guy has already served enough punishment for his misdeeds. His batting skills has never been in doubt. Selectors missed an opportunity here.
