Misbah-ul-Haq speaking at a press briefing during the Bahria Town Champions T20 Cup:

"India lost 3-0 to New Zealand at home and then defeated Australia in Perth. Yet, no one calls India an unpredictable side (India 3-0 haari New Zealand se, jaake Australia ko Perth me hara diya. Waha unpredictable koi nahi kahega unko). England won a Test here, lost two after that, and then went to New Zealand and won another Test match."

"If something happens to us after 12 or 15 matches, people open the entire record of our team. Cricket is a game of unpredictability. Life itself is unpredictable."

"Consistency will come with consistency in selection and policies. When those are in place, along with a good infrastructure, performance will improve automatically."

"The gap between teams is not significant, so no one can predict in cricket. It's not just Pakistan; unpredictability is part of the game for all teams."
 
This guy is the hidden virus of what ails Pakistani cricket.

Just look at the stuff he's saying here.
 
He’s correct about that one. Bharat has been a very unpredictable team but somehow we never got that tag which is a shame because it feels good to be termed unpredictable. Gives a sense of mystery and a fear to opponents.
 
We don't have magic wins like the 1992 World Cup.

Maybe stuff like 2001 Eden Gardens? But those are few and far between. And we haven't had players like Afridi.

Whatever his faults, he shepherded Pak cricket through a difficult period with a great deal of dignity.

It might be time to move on from his methods. his service to pak cricket is second to none
 
Because we lost a home series after 12 years and won back to back test series in Australia so Perth test win was not a suprise .lol

Pak fans are more accustomed with those match fixers in their team back in the 90's.
