What a clueless guy. The other day he was criticising Aamir. The only thing Misbah was good at was winning test matches in the UAE with spinners and with Yk scoring heavily. One drawn series in England doesn't make him a great test captain. Was even worse in ODI cricket and even the few wins Pakistan had under him was thanks to a chucking ajmal and hafeez.
Sarfraz is an average captain himself but given ajmal , Afridi and hafeez even he could have had a few more wins.
ok, sarfraz has got Imad, Shadab and Hafeez. Now plz win us matches. Oh wait, we just lost 11 in a row, 5 under sarfraz.
Its easy to make such statements if you dont bother to watch the game or even remember it.
There was a proper way of utilizing Hafeez, and that was opening the attack with him in some places or bringing at the time when a new batsmen would come in and you would bring the runrate down and make the chase more difficult.
Pakistan got spanked by England, and look at what South Africa did. THey opened there attack with Imran Tahir, the guy gets a wicekt 2nd ball upfront.
As for Ajmal, back in 2011, when Misbah saw Ajmal wasn't spinning the ball that much he was giving more preference to Abdur Rehman. I remember there were matches where Rehman got selected in place of Ajmal.
So you see it isn't about a single players brilliance, its about how you use them.
and i remember on Pakpassion, people used to bash him for playing 2 spinners in UAE, and that was until England came got defeated 3-0 that people shut there mouth.
Before Misbah you guys didnt even know that playing 2-3 spinners in a match is effective.
Sarfraz has imad, shadab and hafeez, go for it.
