Pakistan’s captain has lost all five matches in which he has led so far. His contributions with the bat are also nothing home to talk about and so, another bad series can potentially result in his dismissal from captaincy. If he fails to deliver with the bat also, then he might lose his place in the playing XI as well.

Shaheen Afridi has lost pace and his contribution as the leader of the pack against Bangladesh was not significant at all. He has already become a controversial figure in Pakistan’s dressing room and so, another bad series might give his opponents the opportunity to drop him from all formats.

Abdullah had a horrific series against Bangladesh. Even at the domestic level, he has looked ordinary. The opening batter must perform during the first Test against England otherwise, Pakistan are likely to replace him with Huraira in the second Test of the rubber.

Pakistan didn’t play Naseem during the last Test against Bangladesh. Already under pressure to retain his place in Pakistan’s Test squad, Naseem must deliver sooner rather than later in order to extend his Test career.
