Recommended Posts

Mohd.Yusuf .....The best batsmen in Pakistan test team. Recalled again in the squad. He is consistent player if he get back his form. But what chances he have to perform well in England conditions which are friendly to the bowlers. His weakness is in-swinging delivery. most bowlers trouble him with that delivery. Anderson is in great form. Anderson vs Yusuf Interesting battle between these two. Let's see his performance in next test. Obviously yusuf is backbone to the pakistan middle-order. He is a match winner..no doubt about it. but after long time he come back in the team. That is the question ..will he make strong comeback or not?....Wait and see.

His unquestionable talent and pedigree notwithstanding, he’ll probably fail miserably. How could a guy, who’s not played a competitive game in almost 6 months (not even in Pakistan), simply catch a flight to London and feel at home in these swinging conditions, against the Duke ball? Even the PCB doesn’t even if he’s even been training or having occasional nets. If they play for the 2nd test (which they certainly wont), they’re probably just setting him up for failure. Maybe, just maybe, if they give him some time and include him in the side for the 3rd, he could well score some runs. Who knows.

Meanwhile, Mohammad Yousuf, who arrived in the country less than 24 hours before the start of the match, has also ruled himself out of contention, citing tiredness. "I have just arrived after a long flight. I will not be training. I will wait for the management to tell me what their plan is," Yousuf had told Cricinfo immediately after arriving to Brimingham. Later in the evening he had a short and informal meeting over a cup of tea with the tour selection committee comprising Butt, Waqar Younis (coach) and Yawar Saeed (team manager) at the team hotel. "Considering the heavy monsoon across Pakistan Yousuf told us that he could not practice outdoors for the last 10-15 days," Butt told Cricinfo. "So obviously we felt that was not enough match preparation." Butt added that Yousuf can now set his sights on the third Test at The Oval beginning on August 18. "He can relax for now and steadily get back into the groove in the next week and also during the two-day practice game against Worcester," Butt said. Asked if he was a certainty for the final two Tests, Butt said a player with Yousuf's pedigree he would walk into any team if he was fit. http://www.cricinfo.com/england-v-pakistan-2010/content/current/story/471149.html
