After a successful series against India in India, Pakistan Cricket team aims for the upcoming South African tour. South African pitches are known to be good bouncy tracks and will prove to be a good test for the Pakistani batsmen. The player to watch out in Pakistan teams would be Nasir Jamshed, who is in the best of his forms and have been averaging over 50, the other would be the bowling rising star Junaid Khan who has shown his class by troubling the batsmen on a pitch which was supposed to be a bowler’s graveyard.
Mohammad Irfan has really impressed the board but may not be able to gain a test spot as his physical fitness may be risked in the tough situations of a test match. Mohammad Sami or Tanveer Ahmed may get a chance in the upcoming tour who both have been performing well in the current domestic season.
Pakistani players have been performing quite well in the past few months and have started the year 2013 with a series win. Hopefully Pakistan will continue the good form and will return with another series win.
