More than bowling the unpredictable and inconsistent batting is a worry and gives you the biggest headaches

It is going to be the same ground where South Africa played against India today. Don't know about Thursday's wicket but today's pitch was a slow turner and having Fawad Alam in the side therefore makes more sense. 150+ is a must if we bat first and I won't like us to be chasing anything more than 140. SA made just 130 today and still won the game.

I know Tanvir can slog a bit but with Fawad in the side we bat down to no. 8.
I agree Tanvir is a big risk and why play Fawad if we are not going to use him.
