Shoaib Malik’s Faysal Bank performance puts him under the spot-light – Cricket News Update
Pakistan's former skipper, Shoaib Malik’s outstanding performance during the recently concluded Faysal Bank Super Eight Twenty20 Cup, has revived the chances of his comeback in the national squad once again.
Malik, who was dropped from the Asia Cup squad due to his below par past performances, has lead http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Sialkot-c842 Stallions from the front and guided his team to win the tournament with his invaluable performance in the final match, played on Sunday, at Rawalpindi
Cricket Stadium.
The event was closely watched by the http://www.senore.com/Cricket/ICC-World-Cup-2011-c100625 world rankings.
Prior to the aforementioned tournament, the 30-year-old all-rounder responded to his exclusion defiantly with 353 runs and 14 scalps in the National One-Day Cup, where he was also declared Player of the Tournament.
“The coach and the selectors are very impressed by Malik’s show,” told an official close to the team management.
The right-handed veteran has represented Pakistan in more than 250 matches and has scored above six thousand runs.  His immense experience in the game has also given him an edge in getting shortlisted for the upcoming mega event of the year, ICC World Twenty20,
starting from September 18 in http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Sri-Lanka-c758.
“Malik’s experience is an added advantage and he’s likely to make a comeback,” a PCB official told.
The former skipper, after his back-to-back all-round solid performances, has also been approached by English County clubs, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Essex-c783. However, no decision has been made by Malik yet as he is hoping to find himself back in the national squad.
“Making a comeback is my priority, I’ll keep on working hard in order to achieve that. I’ve made myself available for selection and will only opt for other opportunities according to the team’s schedule,” said the right-handed batsman.
The selectors will call upon the shortlisted players soon as they have planned to put them through different training sessions.  After their training under the guidance of national team coach, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Davenell-Frederick-Whatmore-c52571, the selected candidates will be further scrutinized
before the board announces the final squad for this year’s World Cup.
