The Indians would be really happy with MisBah playing in the coming match. He can ruin the power play, work on every defensive strategy and in the end give the match away with the fans holding their heads in their hands! THANK YOU PCB! Recommend
Hope he does gets ban. THEN the people of the nation will realize how vital his placement in the ODI team is, after the batting order will cripple!
