It is a potent side.

Furthermore, former Pakistan skipper Inzamam-ul-Haq bats at number four position. The right-hander was a consistent performer for Pakistan. Moreover, Javed Miandad bats at the number five position in the team. Miandad is one of the most successful Pakistan batters of all time.

On the other hand, former Indian captain MS Dhoni takes the sixth position in the team. Dhoni is regarded as one of the best finishers, wicket-keepers and captains of the game. The right-hander is also chosen to lead the side by Michael Vaughan.

The current Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan bats at number seven position. Imran Khan had inspired Pakistan to famous victory in the 1992 World Cup and he is regarded as Pakistan’s best ever skipper.
