The fastest bowler in the world, Shoaib Akhtar has advised the young Pakistan pacers to be fiery with the ball against Australia. Pakistan is touring Australia for three-T20I and two Tests starting from November 3. 

Akhtar made it clear that if Pakistan bowlers want to push Aussies on the back foot, they have to target their head and neck. "This 'announcement' [of intent] is significant – they should hit two balls on the side of the batsman's head or neck," Akhtar was quoted as saying by PakPassion.

"[The] captain should make sure that there is no defensive captaincy for these bowlers. This means to ask them to bowl on one side of the wicket only; I don't want to see defensive captaincy, but I want to see leadership with authority. When it comes to bowling, the captain must attack."

Pakistan hasn't been at their best in the 20-over format recently. They lost three consecutive series. Their most recent one came against a half-strengthed Sri Lanka side at home, and it was a humiliating 3-0 whitewash.
