What's new

Islamabad United v Lahore Qalandars | PSL 2 | Match 14 | Sharjah | Feb 20, 2017 | Match Thread

the other problem is domestic captains/batting orders

Sohail Tanvir bats higher than Hammad Azam

Bilal Asif bats higher than Yamin.

Part of this is eliminating competition and the other part is that for some reason we feel that an allrounder has to bat lower than 7

and other problem is also with us fans, we want ready made Gary Sobers or atleast Ben stokes of modern world, i mean we need to show some kind of faith for goodness sake and give these guys atleast proper run in national team,
 
Ammad's stance is very similar to Maxwell's. If he even can be 50 % of him he will be handy.

So true

It would be great if Pakistan could have an allrounder who averages 30 with bat and ball, but we wouldn't be happy unless we have Imran again


we have to do with what we have and what we have can be decent

We also need patience, being an allrounder who bats 7 or 8 is tough, you only have a chance when your team is doing badly or one needs quick runs. We give 2 games then drop them (hammad) and even when they do well they get dropped (yamin)
 
In an ideal world where common sense is used in team selection, these three should be permanent fixture in two years time on these positions when we announce 2019 ODI WC,
7_Yamin (Batting AR)
8_Ammad (Bowling AR)
9_Shadab (Spin AR)
butt only if it was that simple for our selectors.
 
I was ready to take Shadab just for his bowling but if he bats like this then WHAT are we waiting for
 
Shadab should look to get a 50 in the last over
It would be epic after the top order failed
 
Lahore is my favourite team but I'm actually happy for Shadab since he's a young emerging player and I was a fan of him since the u-19 World Cup!
 
please dont let this two rot in our domestic cricket.

Amad probably needs another year but Shadab should get a look in vs WI
 
Shame, big fan of Amad, showed some ability today.

If he can work on his bowling what an option he would be. He has pace, and is a natural ball striker
 
Shadab Khan, Amad Butt, Rumman Raes, Aamer Yamin, Usama Mir, Mohammad Irfan,

all seem to have potential and talent.

So I guess it is not true that there is no talent in Pakistan.

anyone who say that there is no talent, is a fool
 
Misbah knows they have enough runs so he declared with one ball to spare. Umpires not having any of it :mv
 
If shadab still don't find himself on the plane to WI then something is seriously wrong with our system and we fans should really give up on this team.
 
Good stuff from Shadab

Looked very good, but seemed to struggle with the short stuff

Something to work on, but very promising
 
What an innings by Shadab

42 from 24

After the other batsmen failed

he should bat higher, at 4

Swinging the bat a bit lower down the order doesn't make you a specialist batsman. It was a fantastic knock and may turn out to be a match winning one but let's calm down yeah?
 
Muhammad Irfan Jr has a very good yorker, with his height he can be a very good addition to our fast bowling
 
With shadab hopefully our search for the allrounder is over.

yeah but only for spin all rounder, in modern world a pace all rounder is twice in worth, and i hope yamin and ammad can be our modern and better version of razzaq and azhar mehmood as batting pace all rounder and bowling pace all rounder and along with showed we will have one of the best lower order in world which can play modern day cricket and can provide real thrust at the back end of LOI inning, which is biggest concern for us right now.
 
islu should rest rafatullah and open with haddin and slot shadab up higher. misbah can bat at 5 as he is more of a power hitter and shadab at 4 will have a proper chance to show what he is made of.

tbh no real need for having rafat in the team
 
Open with elliot man is useless anyway if he can get a quick 20 it will be good

Ammad isnt good in either department , not an interational material. Yamin can be played but cant see him do well below number 6. The search for a pace all rounder continues but shadab is ready for number 7 here. Pakistan will have to choose between him and imad wasim.
