Former Pakistan opener Aamir Sohail came down heavily on the Inzamam-ul-Haq led selection committee for picking sloggers instead of consistent finishers in the national team ahead of the World Cup.
"The main concern for me is that our players are not playing as per demands of contemporary cricket where teams are reaching close to 350 without taking too many risks and playing percentage strokes," said Sohail, a member of Pakistan's 1992 World Cup winning team.
"Our problem is that this selection committee which has been around for a while now still can't figure out how Pakistan can score 300 plus and for that what do we have to do.
"The unfortunate part is that in Pakistan we look for sloggers. We think sloggers will finish the game. That is not right we need to select and than develop players who can play percentage cricket and finish the job at least seven out of 10 innings."
"I am banking that in English conditions in June and July, there could be more dry pitches and that could help the bowlers."
"Sarfaraz is ideally suited for six or seven and he has got runs at that position so why disturb him from his comfort zone."
