I was not expecting anything from the two youngsters because they are rookies and they should be allowed to fail in game or two. When players do get established like --- lets say Hussey, KP, Greme Smith, Amala, etc, these players are allowed to fail in many matches consecutively. Nobody raises any eyebrows but most of the fans expect and want debutant players to start performing from the word go. To me that is not fair!
If Azhar Ali and Umar Amin (or even Umar Akmal) were good enough to get selected into Pakistan team then let them play 6-7 test matches on the trot get some on the job training and play their natural game without the fear of being dropped after 1 or 2 failures.
