Junaid Khan isn't the same bowler either.

His FC performances have been shoddy.

 

[Mamoon]

Both are rubbish.

 

[tanveer din]

Both are rubbish.

Muhammad Amir Is not half the bowler junaid is

 

[ExpressPacer]

Both have lost pace. Both have poor fitness. Both rarely swing it anymore.

 

[Rafay Shafiq]

Both are rubbish.

But why one is having privilege of being automatic choice

But why one is having privilege of being automatic choice

Amir should be dropped from Pakistan Test squad now after he got a decent run ie 3 Test series 2 overseas and had below average rather very poor numbers.

3 Test series is a decent sample size.


He will be back.



But have some perspective while compairing.


Neither one is privilaged or hard done by.


In 2015-2016 Junaid Khan played 3 Fc matches for Wapda while Amir played 4 Fc matches for SSGC. These were the numbers


1. Amir

4 matches 16 wickets at an Average of 14 and a SR of 35


2. Junaid Khan

3 matches 6 wickets at an Average of 45 and a SR of 92


Junaid Khan in Last 2 Seasons has played 5 Fc matches and has taken 9 wickets at an average of 44.55 and a SR of 93.9


Junaid Khan in his last 6 Tests has taken 16 wickets at an average of 41.5 and a SR of 71 and these were his figures in his last 2 Tests for Pakistan in series vs Srilanka

2 Tests 1 wicket at an Average of 180 and a SR of 336


So what are you talking about brother ?

Junaid Khan any day of the week over that overrated so called legend..

 

[TalentSpotterPk]

JK is playing FC cricket again.

He has joined HBL and is pairing with Umar Gul.

4 wickets in the match uptil now.



Amir will be playing his first F.C. match of the season next week.

In an encounter between SSGC & Wapda Amir, Asif & Salman will be playing that match.


Let’s see if Asif remains fit than who outperforms the other.



If JK knees are back to his earlier best than he can make Test comeback.

 

[Ned Flanders]

Preserve these two for LOI.

Give chances to top domestic performers for Tests, like Sadaf Hussain

Amir was a once in generations bowler way back in 2010,. Today Amir is mearly a shadow of the 2010 bowler,. His inconsistency and record since the 2017 Asia cup proves that,
