2. Misbah-ul-Haq
The Pakistan captain continues to be the consistent performer in an otherwise dismal batting side. However, Misbah’s contributions have not directly translated into success as in the process of doing the business of fire-fighting he enters a shell.
He must rotate the strike a lot more and understand that just plugging one end is not good enough when other batsman are failing to make those decent contributions. His leadership abilities will also be under scrutiny after Pakistan succumbed to a panic attack in the last game in spite of having 40 runs to defend in the last three overs with all competent West Indian batsmen back in the pavilion.
