A collective thanks from the nation to the Lord almighty is in order. The team man is out for 25.
 
Younis is a great teacher. Pakistani youngsters are already learning very well for him.
 
what will you say about sachin? whenever he hit century , india lost.
His centuries effected negatively?

Don't compare Sachin with Younis, though.
That's like Shoaib akhtar saying that tendulkar used to shake his leg in fear when facing him.
Just sounds silly and is illogical.

Well YK is a legend of Pakistan cricket and he deserves a proper send-off. I am sure he'll be keen to win the cup for Pakistan, just like he was in 2009.

Give him a send-off in the format where he is a legend. He has been a joke in ODIs, and deserves nothing more than getting booted out for good.

Even ODI legends like Ponting and Tendulkar didn't get a proper send-off.
 
I honestly don`t care what Fawad Alam`s technique is or whatever. We don`t even need players who can clear the rope at the moment, just fly him to Australia/NZ and tell him to just rotate the damn strike.
 
Why do people get happy about Younis Khan failures? He will not be dropped no matter.

Now that is just silly. Comparisons can't be made. Sachin was admired and appreciated all around the world due to his sheer class.
Younis is being bashed by his own supporters today.
The majority would always vote for Sachin. I know I would.
 
Misbah sends Maqsood in

' He is selfish, not leading from the front.'

Misbah comes to bat himself

' He is selfish, not letting a young player get a chance even in a warmup '

This man cannot win.
Stop generalizing one statement.
No one wants him to bat up the order.
He is a complete loser wherever he bats, so it's better that those who hv atleast an ounce of ability get the best chance rather than a no hoper like him
 
32 runs partnership form 4.2 overs :najam. Thats how things move when you got a decent partner at the other end. and this will not happen when Misbah,YK is at the crease

Lol, just lol.
U r such an experienced poster, yet u hv this observation.

I wish YK made less than 25, if he makes double figures the management feels entitled to give him another game, that's how bad this seniority bs has become.
 
This is dire stuff. Don't buy this line that "you can't read too much into warm ups" - this is probably exactly how we'll play when the World Cup proper starts because we've seen these performances for the last 2 years.

So much for the minnows being easy matches ! Looks like we might struggle against them too.
 
good partnership this is. 38 from 5 overs.!!! it seems When Misbah/YK is not at the crease everything will be balanced
 
after 22overs 84/3. The strike rates of the batsmen have increased slightly since the legend got out.

HS 31* 67.39
SM 22* 88.00

now they have put the foot on accelerator

couple of sixes been hit each by sohail and maqsood
 
Wahab was not impressive yet again. Ehsan must be given a go on for him in the next warm up. Sohail Khan was impressive.
 
Geo news reporting that Sohail Khan got injured during match and is ruled out of the match.
 
just as team man gets out, both sohaib and haris have started the onslaught. hitting fours and sixes at will now. suddenly the runrate has sky rocketed
 
How much will you put up batting first? At our current state I'd reckon that anything over 245 is steep.

More chance of 300 then chasing 300. Every time. It is easier to make 100 of last ten batting first then Chasing. Due to pressure.
U know pak chasing record In last ten years right. Add to that the pressure they feel v india in wc
 
Geo news reporting that Sohail Khan got injured during match and is ruled out of the match. :irfan
 
Looking at both India and Pakistan in the warm up matches ...... ...... looks like the match on 15th will be a classic case of 'comedy of errors' :))
 
somewhere the NZ team is laughing for letting YK made a 100.

What a torture. Its amaizng how we change the criteria for players. For Fawad Alam 1 failure in 10 games means he is dropped and for YK 1 success in 10 games proves he is a world class player.

After this, if Misbah and Waqar STILL do not drop Younis Khan then shame on them honestly, they deserve to lose
 
Another one bites dust.

Misbah is doing the right thing by giving the boys some time in the middle.

The boys arent taking their chances
 
they are crawling against bangladesh, imagine wht would happen against India..:facepalm:

Our bowling is on par with Bangladesh.

Its like they are 20 out of 100.

And we are 35 out of 100.

Don't worry.

India Pakistan WC match is going to be a cringeworthy "who is worse" match.

Both teams will try their best to lose.
 
a youngster fails in an innings or two ..he will be dropped but differently policy for seniors ... they will be in terrible form but due to past experience they will continue him playing till he failed in 20 games

It'll be like two Shakti Kapoors facing off in an epic Andaaz Apna Apna scene. Thaki tiki....
 
Unless they sort it out, Pp will be more down during World cup were Pp tends to be even busier.
 
Hoping Umar and Sohaib take us through. This and another failure against England and there will be some hope of Smiley Khan being dropped.
 
This should be our starting XI in WC
