Sarfaraz should replace erratic Kamran in Tests: Sohail

Karachi, Jan 6 (PTI) Former Pakistan captain Aamir Sohail believes it is time for wicketkeeper Kamran Akmal to give away his Test place to young Sarfaraz Ahmed and restrict himself to playing only one-day internationals and Twenty20 cricket. Sohail was visibly upset after Kamran, who is the vice-captain in the ongoing Test tour of Australia, dropped three easy caught behind chances of leg spinner Danish Kaneria''s bowling and also missed a run out opportunity yesterday on the third day of the second Test in Sydney. Kamran was also not in the best of batting form in Australia. "There is no doubt about the fact that Kamran is in the team because of his added batting prowess and not purely for his keeping abilities alone," Sohail said. "It would be better for Pakistan cricket if Sarfaraz plays the Tests and Kamran is asked to focus on the one-day internationals and T20 matches because of his experience and superior batting abilities," the former left-handed opener said. .
