Almost every match is now 300+ score.

Looking at Sri Lanka's scorecard in its ongoing match against New Zealand and all top 6 batsmen have scored runs at 100 strike rate at least. But none of them is overly aggressive. And they have already scored 300 in 42 overs.

For Pakistan to have a chance every batsman needs to play at 100 strike rate instead of depending on 1-2 of them to play at 150+ strike rate. Everybody chip in so those 1-2 batsmen dont have to take extra pressure.
 
Good luck with that when you have Azhar, Shehzad and Hafeez in the top four.

What's worse my friend is the fact that many cricketing experts l in Pakistan still believe that you might need to see off the new ball, someone needs to play anchor and prevent a collapse type strategy all within the modern one day.

When you have a mindset like this the good luck posting 300

Also it seems in this tournament even 300 is going to be 30-40 runs below par. Teams are scoring 330 in every match.
 
You must have 'Azhar, Shehzad and Hafeez' copied and pasted on your keyboard :))

I have a pre-programmed hot-key for it. I press it and it types out "Azhar, Shehzad and Hafeez in the top four" :srt
 
With players like Azhar and Hafeez you don't have a chance of achieving such an aim.

they have to play fast if the team management gives them the directive. if the team management tells them that you will be out of the team if you dont play fast then all these batsmen will play fast.
 
Azhar will see off the new ball so that the lower order can slog later because Pakistan is still playing the cricket of 80s and early 90s.
 
No chance buddy.

Shehzad and Hafeez are selfish players.

Azhar isn't a good hitter or rotater of strike.
 
To be precise every Pakistani batsman needs to play at a strike rate of 90 throughout their innings. Scoring a 72 ball 50 and then getting out at 70 off 85 is helping no one
