KamranO, now do you see why noone from karachi is in the team?

KHURRAM MANZOOR, OUT FOR 0

i am not an indian that i would not know
Kamran bro, I am from Karachi:) and my favorite player will always be Imran Khan. I see him as a Pakistani not Panjabi:)
 
lol Manzoor continues his epic form. I think his intl career must be coming to an end after this test
 
Whatever happened to having a dig and putting a price on your wicket?
 
Should have played Kamran at 3 ... Mayo & Inti what are u guys thinking ?
 
kamran0, now do you see why noone from karachi is on the team?

KHURRAM OUT FOR 0 = from karachi

:), your logic not mine.,

i say that imran is not my favorite such thing that.
 
Why the hell did they play him? :bhanja was 100x better.

Not because he was from khi:P But because he was a better fielder, and had better batting technique
 
If we can grab another wicket or two it will have been an excellent day
 
same story. he was sitting on the bench for over one month

Did he not watch his videos? did Inti not worked with him?

he is still playing like he is in Pakistan with no bounce...

it is easy to make player qurbani ka bakra
 
Shouldn't matter where you are from, if selection is meritocratic.
 
cant stop laughing at this idiot. first farhat settled himself then gave away his wicket. they are 30-40 runs players, they cant go for big scores they just don have the patience. now one down and this kid comes in and its his 4th ball and goes for the cut. wow great batting then you say i dont get chances. we dont have good back up for our batsmen. im wondering what will happen when Younis and Yousuf leaves. who would we relie on in our middle order???????

apart from umer akmal, no other names comes to mind, unless young players are brought up to play uncer seniors for a while so they could get all the exp they need.
 
PCB said we don't need YK since these guys are playing so well, what good would YK be at #3 ?
 
You can only laugh...

What sort of shot was that......

Yeh tape ball cricket nahin hai puttar.
 
just waiting for a butt dismisal in the 30's and it will be a typical pakistan innings yet again
 
These selectors are a bigger joke for selecting him with such poor technique. He may do ok in sub continent but outside he is a walking wkt.
Last 4 scores 2, 6, 4, 0
 
Khurram Manzoor has the technique of a tailender. Honestly, he is horrible! Should never wear a Pakistan shirt again, and that's not just because he got 0, but because he is rubbish.

To think Fawad was sent home!

he's an opener anyway ***? :))) :)))



sitting him on bench for last 2 week for making anday sakna now what he can do. kamran should have been played instead of him as specialist batsman at #6 and shaib malik should be sent as 3
 
Shezada said:
now i understand why they dont play karachi players lol..

thats bad man..you shouldn't mock somebody based on his views.

I understand kamranO thinks differently but those are his views and we should respect them and correct them sensibly.

You should also consider the reasons why kamranO is saying that, maybe it has a logic in it.

Mocking never helps. :)

If you ask me, Shoaib Malik doesnt deserve a place in the side and he is only there in the team because of friendship club that includes Yousuf & Kamran.

I want best 11 team irrespective of cities and there shouldn't be any friendship club in the team.

and by the way i am not here to make any new country
 
Kami shuld have played at no 3 and Faisal at no 6.

Shoib is a prt of the friendship club and he gets a chance at no 6 on flat track.

we are a 2.5 batsman team.
 
That super fast mo made Khurram Manzoor look like a clown! And he is one!

So Younus is not in form we here, we ignore Afridi's statements that he wants to return, and we send back a guy who made 168 on debut and is very clearly the future our team.

Honestly, what does the PCB expect?
 
It took Taylor and co approx 10 secs to dissect Khurrams technique... are earth Pakistanis that easy?

Shoaib will never bat at # 3. He shouldn't be in the team to start with. Kamran should be banned for few matches for defying the authority

and i think its your dream
 
Saw Manzoor's play in this innings - such as it was- for the first time.

Initial impressions - he's got a very awkward stance, almost ungainly and looked uncomfortable in the way he was lining up to the ball. By itself that doesn't mean anything, Chanderpaul being a prime example. Obviously Manzoor was very nervous so hard luck. I suspect he is not going to last long at this level anyway, but I could be wrong.

I know Manzoor is supposed to be an opener. But I still strongly question the Pakistani management in allowing a new man to play at # 3, not the least playing Australia in Australia.

I'll say more - it suggests a complete abrogation of responsibility on the part of senior players, MoYo in particular who should have been there to take the heat. Sorry to say but the so called 'big boys' in your team have shown they are lacking in responsibility.

Sarfarz seems to be a better keeper than Kamran. His fundamentals seems to look good. Also, i think that he is taller and limber that he was able to hold on to few high bouncers which normally would go over Kamran's head causing extras.
 
Oh, and I forgot to mention, we drop Kamran Akmal as a specialist bat and replace him with a number 11 Manzoor. So as I was saying, what does the PCB expect?

These so called senior players are destroying younger talent by making them play at #3. Fawad, Iqbal and now manzoor. I dont care what is their talent level, senior players have to protect them and introduce them in easier environment.

I've seen better #11s than this guy. His game is well suited to Tennis Ball Cricket. :inti

gosh this match is boring. flat tracks really do produce boring cricket

You can't tell its a flat track when our guys are batting. One is striking at a brisk 23% and the other lightning 35%.

Exactly. Look at where Clarke has played for Australia.
