Pakistani captain Shahid Khan Afridi has hinted that Umar Akmal may replace Kamran Akmal behind the stumps. Kamran Akmal was not good behind the stumps and he dropped three catches in the last game. He dropped R Taylor twice in an over. His batting form is also not good and after dropping catches he also batted badly.
Captain said that the performance of current keeper is not good and he also missed two stumping changes against Sri Lanka. He added that Pakistan has an option in shape of Umar Akmal and Kamran may be rested in next game.
Afridi said that we are here to perform well and whatever will be in benefit of the team they will try it. Shahid said that Kamran worked hard in training but don’t know what happened to him in the game and he dropped catches may be a bad day for him.
Kamran was out of the team due to his bad form before the world cup but after performing well and getting ICC clearance he come back in the team but so far he is not performing well for Pakistan. Pakistan is schedule to play against Zimbabwe on 14th march and they have time to think to resolve the issue. Coach said that they will think about the future after the tournament.
