Afghanistan defeat Pakistan by three wickets in World Cup 2019 warm-up match

Must be quite embarrassing for Shaheen Afridi for a deep midwicket to be put in for him within 10 overs :))
 
Shaheen has been pathetic in the last 5 international matches... a case of fame getting to head.
 
21 off the over.... mashallah. This is the guy who is supposed to carry our fast bowling legacy.
 
Imagine if Barbar azam got injured . Those bashing him would miss him then. He is best batter for Pakistan. Is there a better batter in reserves
 
Afridi is losing this contest fast. You gotta get accurate bouncers on this guy..
 
This is how a team opens if they do not have a nephew opening for them. Attack from the word go.
 
Amir needs to stop bowling filth. Club level cricketers can pick up his predictable bowling and deposit it all over the place aswell.
 
Zazai the 16 year old has yet to lose some baby fat around the tummy.. but who cares if you can hit boundaries like that !!
 
He was absolute unplayable in that 2010 series with ball on inviting length for driving, and in his return game in Asia Cup 2016, bamboozled Indian top order with pitched-up swing. More than cowardice, I would say bad coaching (instruction) and flawed tactics by Captain/Coach - they are trying to damage control in Power Play with him, instead of striking.

He has a different action to the one in 2010 now as well, also seems a bit too square, there seems to be little torque from the hips, seemed more slingy in the past. But having said that good instructions ought to get you some of what you had but Amir is also to blame, I don't think he has the heart for this sport anymore and he should be smart enough to recognise his weaknesses and work on them with the right people if he is not getting the best advise in the team
 
At this rate wahab me even may start on 31st, Who would have dreamed that other than the Legend himself.?

Yeah Amir going at 4 rpo needs to stop bowling filth and instead try to emulate Shaheen Afridi going at 12 rpo.



:salute
 
If even a new entrant like Afghanistan can hit the lacquer off the balm on top of the innings like that, makes you wonder what’s going on with our guys... we get people like fakhar who clicks like 65 percent of the time and Imam who doesn’t look like scoring a four unless it’s a half tracker or half volley
 
Amir might not pick many wickets but he is perhaps the best defensive bowler we have. Look at the difference in economy rates between both opening bowlers bowling to same batsmen.

Shaheen has bowled filth all tour, but you expect Amir to attack rather than bowl slower deliveries with the new ball. Seriously rubbish bowling and shows our mindset.
 
This is one big reason why I don’t like Afghanistan.

**** off mate.

It's ok at he averages 60 just done ask SR. - Imam fans
 
Pathetic pathetic from Shaheen. I hope he is sent home after this thrashing....
 
I bet somewhere in Pakistan right now, Shinwari is watching this and pulling his hair out saying “dubya tee eff more can I do to find a spot in this team!”
 
They have nothing to lose. They can be dangerous on flat tracks. They have better bowling attack for flat tracks. BD could lose to them.
 
Pakistan never looked as incapable of taking new ball wickets in their history as they do now.
 
Amir going at 3.7 rpo is the culprit but not a word against shupa istar Afridi going at 12+
 
Why are Shaheen and Hassan playing? They have played 5 ODIs on the bounce . .
 
Wasim was exactly saying this that he’s not happy with our bowlers going around the wicket so quickly just. Cause you’re not getting wickets and useless slower balls
