Yousuf again not has given priority for upcoming series. Today captain name announced for series against South Africa. Afridi will captain for T20 & ODI while Misbah returns with captaincy cap. After spot fixing drama from English media Salman Butt lost captain slot & yousuf was strong candidate for it. This new announcement for captain seat shocked everyone in Pakistan as no were expecting this from PCB.
Misbah who started test debut in 2001 got permanent position in team in 2007. He selected in 2007 twenty 20 world cup instead of yousuf & he proved his selection. Although he is a good middle order batsman but his test record is not much superior as compare to T20 & ODI. Series against SA is supposing very tough due to past records.
