True. Babar priorities friendships over merit. That's why you see almost identical teams over last 4-6 year period except a couple of players. Shadab, Iftikhar, Rauf, are only playing because they're friends with senior players i.e. Babar, Rizwan and Shaheen. Anyways, I had already predicted Pakistan to go out of group stages, wasn't expecting much from them. Let's see what happens after the wc. Chairman looks pissed at them. This ouster would be worst than the 2007 world cup.
