Faras: "What is going on? Pakistan are not only lacking intensity, but it seems like they dont want to be out there. They are just on field because they have to be there. I thought UAE was the associate team in Asia Cup, but clearly it is Pakistan who are the weakest. I wouldn't be surprised if selectors overhaul the whole squad before WT20." They can't do that, the squads have been announced already.
