But it will go under the table

First off, pakistan should had given the deserveing players a chance here. This wasnt an A tour. This was international. No matter what pakistan writes on team sheet, we will go with what was official.

Someone like Mirza Iqbal baig has a t20 international cap over tayyab tahir is stupid.

Correct players should had been picked, deserving ones.

Haider ali, khusdil and asif suck. Yet they got a chance.

Shahnawqz dhani who was good enough to be in the asia cup squad was not good enough to he in the playing 11 of this game? The selection at pcb level and team managment level is all over the place.

If arthur is director of cricketer than what the hell is the guy doing?

Bro Arthur is the definition of fake it till you make it. Ie he let's others do work and just takes credit for it if their succesful or avoids blame if their unsuccessful.

People forget under azhar and mickey the team got ranked at no 9 lol. The guy use to bat babar at no 6, and fakhar at no 4 lol and backed shehzad as a goated bat.

It was sarfraz who recognised that babar deserves to bat at no 3 in all formats and fakhar shpuld be included in the squad.

Imad waseem for 2017 wasn't Arthur's find, sarfi chose imad because imad played with sarfraz when rhey won 2006 under 19 Cup, so sarfraz knew imad's value.

Arthur just let's whoever the captain is have 100% control, because we have babar, who's clueless Arthur is being exposed for doing nothing.

Arthur has never done anything, whoever the captain is at whatever level, he just let's then have 100% control irrespective of their experience, and if they fail he avoids taking blame but if the succeed he takes credit for saying dumb stuff like "I'm the one who groomed babar azam as the best" when it was clearly sarfi who decided hafeez be moved to 4 and babar at 3.

Arthur doesn't do anything, he just sits and Eats. This coach literally said imam is the top 5 odi batsmen in the world 😂😂, he made that claim because of icc rankings, he has no clue how openers in modern day play.

He first did whatever azhar did, then he went along with whatever sarfraz went along with, after that he went along with whatever babar went along. Same for the current asain games circuit. He does nothing. 😂😂, 2017 was all sarfraz lol.
 
In the last over Bangladesh need 20 runs.

Maybe chill with the exaggerations on some meaningless tournament that reduced to 5 overs from rain. Obviously it is going to favour the chasing side.

The only thing to draw from this tournament is that Pakistan are a very weak side vs spinners. We already knew this and it continues to be the case.
 
Giving the last over to a spinner. When will Pak learn
 

Bangladesh beat Pakistan to win Bronze medal​

Hangzhou, 7 October 2023: Bangladesh beat Pakistan by six wickets on DLS to secure the bronze medal in the 19th Asian Games men’s cricket event at the Zhejiang University of Technology Pingfeng Cricket Field in Hangzhou on Saturday morning.

The match had a delayed start due to rain and was shortened to 13 overs a side after Bangladesh won the toss and opted to field first. Pakistan managed to score 48 for one in five overs when rain interrupted play. Mirza Baig top-scored for his side, returning undefeated on 32 off 18 balls, which included four fours and two sixes.

As no further play was possible during Pakistan’s innings, Bangladesh were given a revised target of 65 to win from five overs. In the run-chase, Bangladesh got off to a flying start and were in course to achieve the target with ease, needing 25 runs from two overs. However, Arshad Iqbal, Pakistan’s most successful bowler, conceded only five runs in the penultimate over and dismissed Afif Hossain (20, 11b, 3x4s, 1x6) leaving Bangladesh requiring 20 runs in the final over.

Left-arm spinner Sufiyan Muqeem bowling the final over, went for 16 runs in the first four deliveries, but came back stronger to dismiss Yasir Ali (38, 16b, 4x4s, 2x6s) the top run-getter for Bangladesh the next ball. With four runs required on the final ball, Rakibul Hasan struck a boundary to help his side win the bronze medal.

For Pakistan, Arshad was the most successful bowler with three for 14 runs from two overs.

Scores in brief:

Bangladesh beat Pakistan by six wickets (DLS)

Pakistan 48-1, 5 overs (Mirza Baig 32 not out)

Bangladesh 65-4, 5 overs (Yasir Ali 34, Afif Hossain 20; Arshad Iqbal 3-14)
 
The team that went for the tournament didn't deserve a medal. Clowns picking clowns.
 
The final of the Asian Games 2023 has been called off and India won the Gold as they were the side having higher seeding.
Afghanistan will be feeling very unlucky here.
