Rubel is really bad mannered player I have ever seen. Think too highly of himself
 
We missed the trick by not having two big hitters at least! Could Hafeez have played the power hitter role in the lower order?

The problem is he is becoming even more popular with the 'bad boy' image he has garnered. Teens/youth absolutely love him!
 
Really poor stuff from Pakistan team. Even C grade Indian team won comfortably against BD.
 
Indias biggest matchwinner.

That's Dhoni and Yuvi not Sachin.I'm a fan of Sachin but after tennis elbow he wasn't necessarily a match winner but defn in terms of batting ability the best Indian player no flaw than can be exploited.
 
Batting collapses is another topic! I meant we dominated lower ranked sides even post 2003 WC when our team was new!

We got eliminated by Ireland from the 2007 World Cup with a full-strength team.

The results against Bang have been mostly due to their mental block. All teams win a couple of matches here and there, it was only a matter of time before Bang won. They are a decent ODI side and we have only 4 players from the team that played the WC QF.

I wouldn't even be worried if we lost the series tbh as long as we put up a fight and improve in the long run.
 
Man, pull a miracle or something. Wahab, we need that 50 again! Banga bowlers are worse than Zim
 
New players from the Bangladesh side has been making the difference for their progress

Sunny, Taskin, Soumya and Shabbir
 
poor bowling performance really hung our batting out to dry today...poor from ajmal,wahab and junaid..ajmal looks finished..

Yes agreed. People going crazy here over nothing. I think azhar and rizwans batting was a huge positive today. Azhars captaincy needs work bt he will improve

Oh God! There's a difference between a finisher and a match winner. Sachin wasn't a match winner? :yk

Well they both come down the order thats why we see them winnin more match. But how many timws has sachin set the platform but there was no one to take it over the victory line.

Azhar captaincy is not even club level , i bet that a club level captain would do better
 
Taskin been taken to task!

I've noticed I am lucky for Pakistan, whenever I post on PP.

Yep, we lost this in the first half of the match. Its criminal how yet again we've conceded 320+ against Bangladesh.

Our spinners/part-timers aren't up to the task, we don't have anyone who can contain in the middle overs like we used to be able to.
 
Taskin and mushfiq seem to be the only two decent guys in the BD team. Great performance by both of them today

Sehwag could destruct bowling like anything and we could win it.
 
In his 54 ball innings I can safely say this has to be one of the best innings by a Pakistani in atleast the past 5 years. VERY CONVINCING
 
What kind of a ridiculous run chase is this? How can you leave it to 86 runs off 36 balls?
 
He wasnt cleared. The actress withdrew her case after rubel helped win against england

It's a ridiculous case. They had a live in relation ship and they broke up. SHe then filed Rape charges. Stupid and Archaic rules!!!

Totally agree, people here don't realize a match winner isn't the person who the winning runs but the person who sets the stage. Sachin is an opener, by giving a steady start and explosive starts on many occasions he has given his team the stage to finish - that's a match winner. His strike rate and average shows that he hit boundaries at will and rotated strike without an effort. This allowed other players to give the freedom to finish the game.
In wc 2011 final, dhoni gets a lot of crebut , but was he the match winner? It was gambhir who's innings set the stage.
Don't expect sachin to open the innings and hit the winning runs to be called amatch winner, he started the innings played the toughest overs and made sure he left often with his team in a better position
 
Sachin was the lone warrior in 90s and sehwag had likes of sachin ganguly yuvraj to comfort him. A big difference.

I have already mentioned that after 2000 Sachin wasn't a match winner but before that he was.Probably the best.
