sarfraz has done enough to show that he is a very good captaincy material he won us U19 WC and then reached quetta underdogs in PSL final

leadership is making the best out of pathetic team and thats what sarfraz is doing here

pakistan team honestly is very pathetic with two half decent bowlers like amir and hasan who cant even take wickets

talk about captaincy when you have good options available in the first place and PCB/micky is not deciding every bit of the game

Wahab is the only down side of the game so far apart from few fielding lapses. Only if he jad hasan's brain, he would be a great bowler.

Agree dont see which batsmen can get us 300 plus we miss afridi razzaq . Hopefully as psl goes on we can develop some big hitters thats the major area we behind all major teams and its sad to see how we always let this happen

Useless cricketer, absolute tool.

May not agree with that, but I do agree with the fact that with Malik and Hafeez there alongside Shadab, and with Fahim showing good batting ability, considering Imad an automatic selection for this game was a blunder for sure. I wouldn't mind Fahim over Imad for this game at all.

Hafeez can do everything Imad can.

Wahab?

Wahab over Junaid continues to anger me.

How so if you have wickets in hand and our batting is notoriously brittle

Indian runrate is low. If they dont bat again, Pakistan will have to chase smaller target in a curtailed game. I think small target in fewer overs is something they can manage.

Whoever thought Sarfraz can be a good captain because of his proactive batting were clearly delusional, leadership is different from primary, secondary or tertiary skill as a player and therefore you can't assume that a batsman or bowler can become a good captain based on their primary skill. I knew from day 1 that this guy isn't captaincy material and the signs are beginning to show.

I think there's a reason for why most people are *surprised* that he has been this poor. It's widely felt that his T20 captaincy has been very good. So there is a basis for believing that he can do a good job in the other limited overs format, and there is still reason to believe this, however dented.
 
It really is a shame that its raining we wait so long for theese matched and its over

He has been an excellent captain at junior level. He won the under 19 world cup. The claims weren't baseless. It's just his 3rd or 4th odi as captain ***. Cluelessness knows no bounds.
 
Rohit is playing a very selfish inning. :sanga
I am praying to God, please someone get him out. But Pakistani bowlers are soo bad, even god can't help them.
:salute
 
Karachites just cannot go against their man. Altaf Hussain with all his embrassing acts, never lost any votes.

Now Sarfraz here has been terrible as Captain, Misbah era is never ending for us, people are claiming he is not Captain, it's Micky, they always deflect blame somewhere else :facpalm:

Bowlers have been asking to push one of mid on/off up, he did not have them. Started with spinner against India, 4 continuous overs, took out split too early, forcing bowlers to deensive lengths with field placement. It's Misbah forever now, it will take decades to get rid of this mindset. I my fed up with all these useless seniors, we need to reboot LOI, like England ASAP, non of these junk test players should be in the team or involved in any strategy, keep Misbah and Younis away from LOI, PSL and what not, this sissy cricket is killing me :acp:
 
Just got up now , Poor team selection again.

Fahim should have played in place of wahab.

I do not understand the fascination with wahab , he again leaked so many runs.
 
Unfortunately India has played their cards right.

The loss of only one wicket means, if innings doesn't finish Pakistan would be chasing huge targets.

The less wickets they lose, the stronger their position.

It wont be a blunder if fast bowlers are able to restrict india in the final overs. I would say it was a master stroke if it happens. If not, then it would prove to be a blunder. He has saved fast bowlers for the last few overs, All depends on the final total India puts up.

And for that to happen, we need 6 overs ASAP from Imad/Hafeez/Malik, so that we can have Amir and Hasan bowling 7/10 (8/10 is no longer possible) of the final 10 overs. Which is what I said before Pete Rose had issues.
 
If we can somehow keep them to 300 or 310 we may have a chance if 1-2 batsmen click. 320+ is impossible.
 
I understand and agree but you are just showing frustration for calling name to a country where you live. If our parents have bad reputation, you will call names then?

Rain has stopped. This really is a strange knock from rohit. Very unlike him. He doesn't slow down like this normally
 
Madplayer said:
U think it will be a 50 over game?
Click to expand...



That's why I said Pakistan's best chance is rain and you said rain or no rain Pakistan will win.. Which means you think even in a 50 over game you think Pakistan will win.. Not sure what you are trying to prove here by asking me if it will be a 50 over game or notZz

You are not even counting wahab in the bowling line up? :)) rightly so
 
Did we not win in WI at the least? We were not even doing that with Captain Luddahd!
 
I am most fascinated to see how easily Indians rotate the strike man !!!

They're batsmen are on some other level as opposed to ours who literally compete with a snail :facepalm:

Yeah sorry i got a bit confused there lol but yes i think Pakistan can chase 300 once in a while. Might be today if we get a full game.

I know. 6 more. Out of 16.5. :wahab2

5 more as Malik bowled 2 too :p and now 1 more reduced due to 49 over per side.
 
D/L is favoring Pak at the moment.

If India stop batting now at this stage, Pak's target is going to be 302 in 50 overs, and if Pak loose overs as well, the target will be 243 from 35 overs. I think this favors Pakistan at the moment

Obviously Sarfraz is miles better than azhar. He hasn't been at his best in this game. Azhar would've taken us to associate level

DL favors batting second, that was prime reason for fielding first today, everybody was aware of weather.
