Umar Akmal’s position

Letter February 22, 2014
If Pakistan really wants to win 2014 Asia Cup, then they should make proper use of Umar Akmal in the batting order.

NEW DELHI: This is with reference to the story “We are full of confidence: Mohammad Hafeez” (February 20). I believe that if Pakistan really wants to win the 2014 Asia Cup, then they should make proper use of Umar Akmal in the batting order.

He is constantly slotted in at the number six position, which does not do justice to his talent. The team management must start trusting him with more responsibility and ask him to bat at the one-down position.
