He does seem like a charismatic and happy go lucky personality who lightens up the dressing room atmosphere. He does have a stable head on his shoulder. Just needs the right guidance.
)
In the recent few matches whenever Shaheen attempts a yorker it often turns into a full toss, whereas Naseem exhibits better command over yorkers and length deliveries.
I like Naseem but "at his age". The perennial problem that PK can't stop. Just judge him on his performances and stop the age judgements
Agreed. IA he stays fit, keeps improving and becomes the best bowler in the World
)And we produced wickets that were the worst possible for our pacers and made them look awful.
The galaticos you mention were done by 07. Only Lee was left. It was simply his injury/lack of fitness. Otherwise he was well on his way to become an Australian goat atleast if not an atg in white ball cricket. His stock was skyrocketing after 07 wc, at that period he had clearly bypassed Johnson on the pecking order but unfortunately fitness came on the way. He was mesmerizing to watch in 10 t20 wc.
Yes defensive mindset to nullify the opposition.
I wonder if PCB would ever think of going down the ECB route of different coaches for different formats.
Thanks.
Our wickets are destroying our bowlers with their lack of pace and bounce. I remember some stat that showed that our wickets are the lowest bouncing in World cricket
During the match against Bangladesh the pitch offered substantial assistance to the fast bowlers.
But as soon as we play a team that also has quick bowlers, we lose faith in our bowlers as we believe that they are rubbish.
This is true and a point well-made by Shaun Tait.
So pathetic and negative is our thought processes that will kill the good bits of our cricket. Rambo a good game but he was just as bad as the others and quite rightly we got smashed by Eng and easily beaten by Aus. Just produce good wickets and trust the players but we cant.
yeah he bowled on good lengths and was getting the swing both ways.
What was even that dropped catch by slip fielder ..off Naseem Shah’s bowling? I think it was Shubman gill… too unlucky was Naseem Shah today
Yes, it was Naseem to Gill. He bowled well, but that is cricket for you. Sometimes, the most deserving get no reward, and sometimes the not-so-inform bowlers (Like Shadab and Shaeen) pick up wickets.
Lol didn't had any injury for more than a year. When you play a fast bowler all 3 formats this is bound to happen
Nothing yet.
iA!
My understanding is that it could be anything from 2 to 4 months to recover from this sort of injury.
If compare ODI, Asif is no where near Naseem. In fact, Asif is not worthy to be ranked as ODI bowler
no that's not true! Asif was one of the best bowler of that era accross formats.
Please quote some of Asif's ODI achievements ( I am sincerely not aware much)
The bowling was all about the 30 overs of pace (Naseem, SSA and Haris). Babar also failed to get a proper 4th pacer added to that list. He kept Shadab and nawaz in the team. Now with Naseem out, the whole pace strategy is done and dusted. Naseem is crucial.
Yup but not having anyone on the bench to take his place is also a worry. We kept wasim Jr with the team for last 2 years but he learned nothing. Hassan ali making another comeback and just returning from injury as well. We gave Zaman Khan chances only on the basis of 1 psl season. We have no planning or anything
