Imad Wasim : Poor form, overconfident or simply, found out?

[superman]

The hair ****** me off almost as much as the 6's from Pandeya

 

[troodon]

Pandya can pummel non spinning spinners and mediocre trundlers.

Imad was played like a slow medium pacer.

 

[Syed1]

Got smashed by BD

Got smashed by India

Soon to come: smashing by South Africa and Sri Lanka


Despite all of that Imad is still one of the first names on the team sheet for Inzi, Mickey and Sarfaraz. The three men who will turn around Pakistan cricket as per [MENTION=53290]Markhor[/MENTION]

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

I said even when he was getting too many wickets that he would be found out by batsmen who had more brains than the West Indians. Looks like even they have figured him out eventually.

A spinner who can basically just deliver arm balls isn't really a spinner at all. Imagine what genuine international class batsmen will do to him once they've had a good look at him.

Called it ages ago.

 

[jnaveen1980]

He is poor man's Jayasuriya at best. If anything he should have gone for lot more runs given that India practice s against Jadeja in the nets.

 

[shah_1]

He is the biggest scam ever

Did well against WI and couple of other matches. He is nothing special

Hopefully Talat Hussain replaces him

 

[Hawkeye]

Can't bat, can't bowl.

 

[aukhan]

Overconfidence for sure.

 

[TalentSpotterPk]

Quite poor knock from him.

Blind slogging.

[Aviator]

Useless!!!

 

[Zaz]

couldve done a little better in end Did ok to support hafeez but im happy with 338

Pakistans to lose

 

[Hamza_]

Fahim should have been there. Poor stuff

 

[Rayyman]

Good innings. Put on a great partnership of 70+ with Hafeez.

 

[Badsha]

People criticizing this innings? He faced some pretty good death bowling and did well. We could have easily lost 2-3 wickets and finished only at 290ish.

The total is there. Up to the bowlers now.

 

[Billy1999]

Imad has probably done really really bad

 

[coy0607]

He's an average bowler generally. I've never understood the fascination with his batting, other than a few dibby dabby not out innings, he's never done anything of note

If Hafeez and Shadab are going to play in ODIs, there really is no need for Imad and his empty swagger.

Not a useful player in any way

It's the way he batted. Why'd he keep trying to play those silly flicks?
He didn't run we'll either. Just seemed lost. And kept smacking his bat around in frustration

In the same position, Sarfraz would have taken a ton of doubles and triples. Malik would have danced around a little and gotten a few boundaries

 

[kaifmazhar]

Pak ended 20 run less due to unnecessary shots tried by Imad. This hopeless guy plays more for the gallery than playing within the context. These guys wasted last 4 overs when on top.

 

[Adil_94]

average knock could have done better and Pak could have got up to 350.

 

[JoniInsafian]

Replace him with Faheem..... Faheem can hit the big shots against fast bowlers and yorkers, which Imad can't....

Shadab and Imad are similar batsmen (not big hitters, prevent a collapse down the order) but I prefer Shadab's bowling....

He can be a useful squad player....

 

[MRSN]

useless player. Should have played Rauman.

Pakistan need to loook for his replacement.

 

[Hiraeth]

Joke of a player.

Get rid of him ASAP.

 

[ExpressPacer]

I think he did pretty well. Tried too much to play like someone he is not but eventually came good.

What are you talking about? He failed in his primary job. Not even bowled one over and he wasn't fit. Pakistan lucky got a wicket thanks to run out otherwise this joke of a player might have given us heart attack.

Pakistam made a mess playing him against India. Thankfully it didn't matter in the end with 338 on the board and brilliant spell of Amir. But he could have cost us dearly.

 

[asadee]

Made up by taking Dhonis catch!!

 

[Khwaja]

Imad Wasim: a mediocre Ahmed shehzad that can perform on certain days

 

[coy0607]

he might be the least useful player in the team- the weak link

to be honest, I think Amir is a better batsmen than Imad

Agreed about the bowling bit but I was specifically talking about the batting. I think he did good-ish. People say Fahim can do better but that is yet to be seen, for the cause of Pakistan - I hope its true.
