#3 Middle-Order: Shoaib Malik, Sarfraz Ahmed and Asif Ali
Ad
Shoaib Malik has the most experience in the Pakistani squad, and he is also the most experienced player for Pakistan against India. He has a total of 9 centuries out of which 4 have come against India and also his batting average against India, 46.14, is higher than his career average of 35.12.
Other than Shoaib Malik Pakistan's middle-order will include captain Sarfraz Ahmed and the player who emerged from the Pakistan Super League, Asif Ali. Sarfraz's batting skills have deteriorated in the last few years but the way he has led Pakistan after Misbah-ul-Haq has been commendable.
