Can't remember a weaker Pakistan side playing in any of WCs than the one: Javed

Islamabad, Feb 19 (IBNS): Pakistani batting legend Javed Miandad has said the Pakistani team playing in the current World Cup is a 'weaker' side.

"I can't remember a weaker Pakistan side playing in any of the past ICC Cricket World Cups than the one at this tournament. It's not because other teams have got stronger, but because Pakistan has ignored more deserving players like Shoaib Malik, Azhar Ali and Zulfiqar Babar," Miandad was quoted as saying by icc-cricket.com.

He said: "There seems to be a lack of planning from the Pakistan think-tank for such a mega event. It's not a bilateral five-match ODI series in which the team can experiment in one or two matches. The side needs to pick specialists for specific spots. I sincerely hope that the team management has learnt its lesson and will not falter on Saturday against a wounded West Indies."

Pakistan lost their opening match against India on Sunday.
