Update on Pakistan's World Cup Squad

Quote

Pakistan have sprung a surprise by bringing back pacers Mohammad Amir and Wahab Riaz to the ODI fold for the World Cup as they announced their final 15-man squad on Monday (May 20). Both Amir and Wahab did not initially feature in the provisional squad. Apart from the two seamers, batsman Asif Ali has also been included on expected lines in order to provide firepower in the middle order. Abid Ali, Junaid Khan and Faheem Ashraf, who were named in the initial squad, will make way for the trio.

Well, Mohammad Amir's selection was well expected even before the England series, as Pakistan's bowling attack is vividly useless without him. However, the whole series (Eng vs. Pak) proved that the whole bowling line-up of Pakistani team is lacking experience as well (for example, not bowling the yorkers when they were extremely needed during the ODI series) and some change(s), along with inclusion of Mohammad Amir, were immediately required within the World Cup squad. IMHO, the PCB took the right decision by including these two in the squad, it was very much required.

However, apparently, Junaid Khan isn't very happy with the decision:
