'Afridi may be reconsidered for India ODIs'

Islamabad, Dec 19: Pakistan limited-overs captain Misbah-ul-Haq says dropped all-rounder Shahid Afridi might be reconsidered for the one-day international series against India.
The selectors picked Afridi for the two Twenty20s against India this month but dropped him for the three one-dayers because he's scored only 182 runs in his last 16 ODIs with only one half century.
But Afridi has scored two half centuries in 50-over practice matches in the last three days, including 90 off 64 balls on Wednesday to catch the eyes of his captain.
Misbah says "if his form remains like this and we needed him, we will definitely consider him." Pakistan team leaves for India on Dec. 22, and the series begins with a Twenty20 at Bangalore on Dec. 25.
