Its like Shoaib Akhtar is coming on for a spell
 
Hafeez shouldn't play Tests cricket after this series. Pathetic shot

As I write this Hafeez will probably not last long :facepalm:

Why do we have him in the team again :69:
 
Awful from Haveez I said he would get bogged down unless he scores and do something stupid. Shouldve kept it along the ground. So poor
 
Even with Misbah as captain I will be surprised and furious If Pakistan dont drop Hafeez after this, I dont know WTH he was thinking
 
Wow, what have you done Hafeez. Astagfirullah, he was my lottery ticket and now I've lost the jackpot! All hopes on Azhar
 
Mentally shot. Was never about his talent or skills or form. Just doesn't have the heart for battle
 
There is a flight to Islamabad this evening from Birmingham Hafeez should be on it.
 
Both Hafeez's dismissals are fascinating.

A cut and a pull, but he doesn't turn his wrists to take the ball downwards. He just lifts it in the air.

Amazingly poor technique for an opener.
 
I cant believe this guy took Pakistan for hostage when Amir was returning.
 
Soft dismissals, drop catches and no bowling. Even Iftikhar Ahmed net contributions would be greater than whatever Hafeez is providing at the moment. At least you'll get an extra 5th bowling option out of him, no matter how average his bowling his.
 
He was never gonna succeed in these conditions anyway and he's too old. Should be dropped from the test team for good. You need fresh blood for the series against Windies .
 
Broad is stunned beyond belief that a player like Hafeez is a) allowed to play Test cricket b) open the innings c) manage to be so spectacularly awful and each time find a new way to show us how awful he is
 
Broad passes Lillee with 356 test wickets. Albeit it in a lot more tests.
 
What Azhar did well in the first innings was he looked to score and be positive. Should try to do the same here. He ran very well
 
Sami Aslam owns the third man area. Its his main scoring area

So true!
 
Problem is who replaces hafeez

Masood is also a walking wicket
I think we can try Azhar as an opener with Sami and have either Rizwan or that other guy ( forgot his name, my bad) play in the middle order but I hv this weird feeling that Hafeez ain't going anywhere and we hv to put up with this walking wicket many more years to come. This guy averages 20 outside Asia and we are still persisting with him, goes to show how our talent pool has dried up.

Nope, this is exactly what I said maybe six months ago. I knew he was going to fail big time and that has happened. We should have invested in someone else but we like to put in TTF and expect a good result.

These conditions are not even that tough. This is a good track for batting not a pure phatta but it isn't some minefield or greentops. Just Hafeezs pathetic shot selection and mental weakness to tough it out when trying to save the game.

This is a 50-1 at lunch track.

So I'm guessing 35-3!
 
Pitch is an Aircraft run way at the moment - Drawing this is as easy as it gets !! You just don't have to be a mental midget out there !!
 
For gods sake, drop Hafeez and make Azhar open. Azhar practically opens anyway, bring Rizwan in at 6 and put Shafiq higher up.
 
Sami can go a long way in Test cricket. Probably with a strike rate of 45ish but he looks very hard to get out once in
 
Considering the tail Pakistan have, how awful was that by Hafeez
 
There was a poster named Hafeezrocks.

I think he should just post random stuff in this thread.

Will get 100s of quotes regardless.
 
Rotate the strike especially while we have a left/right hand combination at the crease.
