Australia vs Pakistan | Tri-Series: 5th T20I | Harare | Jul 5, 2018 | Pakistan Innings

That's our strong point man.

I feel like it's inconsistent, Asif Ali developing can really improve that.

Sadab is better than Fahim in term of hitting

If this is true, what's the point of having Fahim in the side lol?

Fahim is being played for his potential as a hitter. So I'd say Fahim should be better. He needs to be given the opportunity to prove himself with the bat, and bat above Shadab.

Shadab seems a more well rounded batsman with better defense, but Faheem should be a better hitter, that's his responsibility in the team.

 

[Markhor]

Asif Ali seeing it like a football. Some terrific hits. Keep going till the end.

 

[Slim]

Asif is playing a role of consolidator instead of accelator

Say what.

 

[Zeshan547]

Fahim is very unreliable and hit and miss type hittet, very limited

Thats the problem right, Fahim is more hype than reality so far. Shadab is a better bat and hitter than Fahim if we go by empirical evidence.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Faheem out on the last ball of the over.

 

[Mueez]

Faheem oyeeee

 

[Slim]

Fahim gets out on a duck after wasting 5 balls. Never rated this guy.

 

[daytrader]

Disappointing innings that

 

[mmkextreme_1]

Faheem Ashraf

This is what I mean, it is too inconsistent. Faheem is another one I hope develops into a decent hitter other then that it could be 50-60 off the last 4 overs or bust...we lose 2-3 wickets slogging out.

 

[Zeshan547]

Another useless inning from Fahim, He is living on thin ice.

 

[Mainul]

Say what.

As I was typing that comment Asif began to prove me wrong.The game is faster than my typing.Kya karu

 

[mmkextreme_1]

Beautiful shot by Asif Ali ...out of the ground that one!

 

[Mueez]

Shot.

 

[Markhor]

) Asif launches that one into the Pacific Ocean.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

My oh my what a shot by Asif.That’s out of the stadium

 

[Zeshan547]

Man Afridi Who,,, This is Chris Gayle Territory,,,

 

[Slim]

What a beautiful shot Asif. Beautiful.

 

[IMMY69]

Asif Ali is awesome.
Clean hitter of the ball..
A real find

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Asif is striking at 32 at the end of the innings.

The finisher we needed.

 

[Mueez]

190+ would be a good total on this pitch.

 

[mmkextreme_1]

from Shadab

 

[Shafi]

Fahim is just a hack no power hitting abilities, wasted 3 ball and scored 0.

 

[Chief Destroyer]

Lol, massive.

 

[Markhor]

Shadab joining in on the fun.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Shadab joins in the fun with a six of his own.

 

[Mueez]

 

[mmkextreme_1]

Shadab gone the next ball

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Shadab sacrifices himself for the team.No worries though,Asif on strike.

Underedged for .

 

[Slim]

See i told you guys that Shadab should have been sent over Faheem, a miles better batsman than all hype but nothing inside Faheem.

 

[Shafi]

Hafeez is coming back in final!!!!!

 

[Mueez]

And he's out.......

 

[ads101]

Thats the problem right, Fahim is more hype than reality so far. Shadab is a better bat and hitter than Fahim if we go by empirical evidence.

I agree with you think Shadab's a better bat. Though as I said a bit sad if Shadab beats him in hitting too, it's the only area which Faheem could potentially be better. Defense, technique, potential to build on, bowling, even running between wickets, Shadab's already better.

Faheem's held his place in T20s, mainly with the ball somehow, even though I suspect it's a bit of luck in there, he's done pretty well with the ball against the weaker teams.

But in ODIs (and tests), I seriously question his value to the team. He doesn't seem to excel at any aspect batting or bowling. And I question the utility of how we're using him, a specialist no.8 bat. Is he going to improve in time for the world cup, that's a massive issue, and it doesn't seem likely.

 

[Mainul]

That Shadab shot...I fell in love with his batting.

 

[Markhor]

Finish on 194-7. Our best batting performance of the tri series.
