Hasan Ali - The Architect of the Revival

[Eagle_Eye]

The passion, the "at you" attitude, the skill, this guy has it all.

Whatever the result on Sunday... salute the guy who has single handedly revived Pakistan in this tournament....

Hassan Ali and Fakhar Zaman *

Hassan has dragged the rest of the bowlers with him and performed almost a miracle in keeping 3 teams under 250

Both hasan ali and fakhar zaman

Even though Hasan Ali has been the best of the Pakistani players, it has been a team effort which has led Pakistan to Final. Brilliant bowling by each of our bowlers and some crucial knocks by each of our batsmen has been the reason of success.

 

[Farhansk]

He is the one who took the initiative.

Respect.

 

[omcswe]

we have had fakhar and sharjeel for years and we kept pursuing with people like shehzad, hafeez and tried to make sarfaraz an opener.

nice.

 

[last_knight]

Team effort, Yes. But Hasan Ali the harbinger.

Not exactly there but a bowling equivalent of Klusener the batsman from WC '99. You always knew Klusener will carry you.

 

[Madplayer]

He is at the forefront surely.

He knows he has the ability. Doubt is out and that makes a world of difference.

Hasan Ali is like the Seth Rollins of Pakistan cricket [MENTION=46929]shaz619[/MENTION]

 

[aloo paratha]

I love this guy! Everything about him is lovable.

 

[zyrus]

He was much under-rated here. I remember appreciating him for tightening Kohli up for 40 overs and someone still said that he got phainta.

But I believe its the return of Junaid which completed the missing puzzle of Pakistan's pace attack. Previously, one-off performances of Hasan, Shahdad and Amir were meaningless as others were leaking out runs cancelling their hard-work. Junaid came and kept the pressure from other end which resulted in wickets falling for everyone.

Also, coming back to pacers a bit early (at 28th-30th over) along with miser field placement enabled us to put more pressure on opposition by blocking easy runs that we usually give against better teams, this resulted in more wickets around 30th over.

 

[Rayyman]

The player of the tournament in my opinion

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Sarfraz captaincy as well

 

[Syed1]

Go back and watch the highlights of each of the previous three matches. Sarfaraz brings back his main bowlers Amir/Hasan/Junaid from around the 30th over inorder to restrict the opposition who are getting ready to launch. This is where we have picked up the bulk of the wickets and inflicted the death blow to opposing sides. This luxury has been afforded due to miserly bowling of Shadab/Imad/Hafeez/Fahim/Raees. The entire bowling lineup is hunting in packs. Obviously Hasan is the spearhead but the entire machine is working fluidly to produce these results.

Brilliant bowling and captaincy.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Sarfraz captaincy as well

Sarfrazs

Best part about Hasan Ali is his passion.

Lifts the entire team into believing they can do it.

Credit to Sarfraz and I said this earlier too. In the PSL Sarfraz was well-regarded for having a great feel for match situations and making changes accordingly. He lost it against IND but managed to pull things back for the rest of the tournament.

He's got the bowling unit working in full flow.
