Does Pakistan management even think before selecting team?

Pakistan TM over-rates their pace attack again and again and again and again and again.. this has been going on for a while. They think they can blitz through batting line up with their " 4-pronged pace" attack. Haris Rauf is the only one who looks okay that too in helpful conditions compare to others. Everyone else is average to mediocre.

If you’re picking this youthful T20, then it should be against an opposition that are beatable. Such as Ireland, Netherlands or Zimbabwe in a home series.

Bro some people will still say cricket is the game of specialist and pakistan is doing just that by playing specialist 4 fast bowlers this theory won them series in australia and south africa what do you say on that?

Better question is does the Pakistani Team Management think period for anything?

The way they go about everything they do is very amateurish, village based and based on personal connections, relationships.

Someone like Aqib Javed for example will go with someone he has a bond, personal connection and familiarity with for eg Shaheen regardless of his present for wheras someone in better form on the bench will be ignored because the coach, captain does not have much familiarity or connection with them.

Absolute lack of merit and professionalism in all our affairs wheras the entire world has become thoroughly professional and science based. Our players in general don't really put much educated thinking and analysis, action on their games to learn from mistakes, to identify problem areas, to rectify weaknesses which is why they all regress and exhibit absolutely zero game and situational awareness in real life matches.

They won 2-1. That was an experimental Australian side. Mostly due to Haris Rauf. Others took some wickets when Australia fielded a b string side

In SA i am not sure your pace attack won the match. Mostly due to spinners right. NZ in their own conditions just used 3 seamers. 1 spinner. 1 swing bowling all rounder. You need variety in your attack.

The current one looks too biased in favor of certain players.

When it comes to understanding cricket, Pakistan is rock bottom.

This is why we need overseas professionals to coach our players and mentor upcoming coaches at all levels.

But we have people like Misbah, who do not want foreign expertise getting involved in Pakistan. This shameless person ousted Mickey Arthur to take his job for himself when he had no qualifications and experience.

Misbah’s fans will tell you that we must reappoint their messiah.

We also need overseas expertise on pitch preparation.

Bro thats the thing i dont get why is aqib javed keep on making blunders when he knows this is his last time as pakistan coach he is hell bent on making worst combinations for the team.

I mentioned this during and after the T20 series too.

People were too busy blaming the batting (which is fine) but the glaring issue making things worse was the coaching staff having negative cricketing IQ.

Pakistani coaching is about as mediocre as it gets right now. The coaching staff has made a lot of blunders with their strategy but it was getting covered due to the team being young in the first series.

But yesterday brought it right into the limelight.

If the coaches can't even get simple things right like tosses and/or number of bowling options, you're signing up to be tortured as a fan.

The whole world thinks leaving PCB and its management... The whole goes 1 way and they are right most of the times but PCB goes the opposite way.
