Afghanistan dominating with 4 Spinners in their line up we saw that against Pakistan in the last game.
Even by resting Rashid, Nabi in the UAE game they still went with 3 full time spinners and won the game.
I hope in the Final, Pakistan will go with 3 Full Time Spinners and Saim/Agha would be there as 4th/5th Spin option and that can make things easy for Agha as Captain.
Agha should keep his friendship with Faheem aside or even if that is pressure then keep that aside and pick the Best XI from the 17 Squad.
Fakhar has finally started to score but still I would be happy if he bats at 4 and 3 Number should be given to Haris, he is useful only in powerplay and we know they won't drop him. So better to play him at 3. Even if they drop him then options are Khushdil and Talat and I don't think that would be a better option going with them straight away in the Final.
Same goes for Wasim Jr., He should have been given the game against UAE but if he isn't given that game then should not be included in the Final against Afghanistan. Instead he should be included in the Oman game in the Asia Cup.
Go with Saim and Sahibzada as Openers and for Fast Bowling go with Shaheen and Haris.
