In PSL Faheem Ashraf is a class apart.

Really need a full revamp to our domestic structure, need to kick out all these useless coaches and selector, bars on leeches like Miandad, Sarfraz N A Sohail Latif, Moin....Otherwise there is no hope for sure.

Imran is changing it all but these dead wood leaches are crying. We need less teams, less players and higher salaries for domestic cricketers. This is the only solution now. This will bring in more quality players and more educated people will consider cricket as a career.

Faheem was actually a good prospect. But Pakistan players have a habit of letting fame get to them. If Faheem had focused on his cricket instead of increasing his swag, he could’ve become better. Still has time tho, he’s young.

We will miss him after he retires.

Gun player.

Feel like Pakistan didn’t use him to his full potential.

Yup, after Razzaq we should have looked at Hafeez to play that role, instead we keep using him as opener..

Lol honestly like these guys never believed themselves Imran Khan saw them on the street and picked them lol what do U expect from them they all come from the same boat
 
Shadab bowling beautifully here. I never was too critical on him and never will be even if he goes for runs as its not his fault that he was brought into team without a single full domestic season. Same goes for Shaheen and Hasnain, its not their fault that they are being groomed at international level.

All three are talented but are still learning the game as they havent played much domestic as well.
 
Omg why would you bring on Hasnain just when you have stopped the run flow. That is bad captaincy :danish

Or may be he reads too much of PP for his scouting :) If you read the first half of Faheem V Pandeya .... even Richie Benaud would be sold. And why Wasim only - PAK's coach has coached both Kluesner & Faheem, yet ................., you know :(
 
Sarfaraz is so dumb omg pace is easy to play here keep slowing it down bring your ****** imad on
 
These two can’t hit.. but we need wickets now.. Hasnain is bowling quick
 
If they are not going for a win and just trying pacers I can understand not using more spin but other than that no excuse.
 
Is Shadab using triple sweater over skin or he has added one layer of fat under skin?
 
Guys we get it he bowled 150... 55 posters don't have to post it here :))

But those teams fill with TTFs or oldies or nepotism then it will be even worse.
 
Hasan and Imad haven't even bowled yet. We should win, but need Shadab to pick up another wicket soon.
 
Man lockie bowls 145 kph consistently for 10 overs this kid is gonna bowl one 150 bowl just once like over obsession with pace honestly 150 is even played easily it flys if you ar at 155 like lee and Akhtar that is hard to play
 
Lol how many of you getting gassed about that 150kph delivery :))
 
Afghanistan have slowed down .
But they have knocked down 100 in 17 overs. Even if they take 23 overs for next 100 they will have last 10 to get 63 runs to win.
The plan by Afg should be singles and doubles with occasional boundary nowonwards.
 
Though Pakistan's pacers are not picking wickets, they can't be written off. Each one of them is capable of bowling 145+. Today all of them were up in terms of pace.
 
Who needs to take wickets as long as these bowlers are hitting 150. The world should know that we don’t produce trundlers we produce fast and furious pace
 
A 90mph bowler is bound to go for some runs at times if he looks for wickets.
Hasnain needs to be backed by the coach and captain at this early stage of his career.
Dont curb his attacking instincts and turn him into another trundler like hasan ali

Akhtar was a sight man, from his run up to delivery. Beautiful bowling and his celebration, what a superstar he was. Still haven’t seen any international bowler who can give me goosebumps like he did
 
I do not think Shaheen should start in the WC.


Amir and Hasan are a lock.... grudgingly we will have to pick phast Wahab.

This will be the pattern in WC .... only Imam needs to protect his middle order, otherwise almost every team is loading their explosive 3 in top, at least 2 in top 3.

Man these all this work out and fitness yet no bowler is as fast as tait, lee, akhtar, and mind you even my guy Sami at 40 still hits 140 for fun
 
They are playing sensibly. They have come a long way. I thought they will go bang bang and get bowled out.
