CRICKET: THE RETURN OF MALIK


Shoaib Maiik, the former Pakistan cricket team captain has been given green signal to play cricket for his country after the integral committee cleared him of the charges made against him.

The 29 year old all-rounder from Sialkot, who represented his country in 32 tests and 192 One day Internationals, will now be the part of the Pakistan cricket team for the forth coming series against Zimbabwe which will start on 1st September. It would be good for Malik to make a return against a relatively weaker team in order to build confidence and to get into groove.

The newly appointed captain Misbah ul Haq, is also believed to be a supporter of the former captain and is also one of the reasons for his return.

MY PRIDICTION:

Being a big supporter of Shoaib Malik, I think this decision will prove to be a good one for the team. The middle order batting will get strengthened through Mailk’s inclusion of the former world number 1 all-rounder, so will be the bowling and fielding. My prediction (that I made 3-4 months ago) that Malik will return as a captain soon, didn’t came true but still I think Malik will be appointed the captain of Pakistan Cricket team for the limited over formats in the coming days.
