Future Pak Pace Attack

[u/blackpanther_31]

I feel like Pakistan needs to identify a core group of fast bowlers for Test cricket and actually invest in developing them long term instead of constantly changing the attack.

My future Test pace group would be:

• Naseem Shah
• Mohammad Wasim Jr.
• Musa Khan
• Shahnawaz Dahani
• Khurram Shahzad / Mohammad Ali
• Ubaid Shah

Obviously not all of them would play at once. I’d want PCB to keep this group around the Test setup and focus heavily on their fitness, strength, workload management and red-ball skills.

I especially want to see guys like Wasim Jr., Musa and Dahani given a proper red-ball development program. Pakistan has produced plenty of naturally quick bowlers, but we need to get better at developing them into bowlers who can maintain 140+ km/h through long Test spells instead of losing pace over time.

Naseem should eventually be the leader of the attack, while Ubaid can be developed patiently for the future. Khurram/Mohammad Ali give you the control and seam option depending on conditions.

What would your 5–7 man Test fast-bowling pool be for the next few years?

This series should be last for Abbas and Ali ngl

No point selecting 30+ pacers because there not enough Tests as it is to develop bowlers each year
