he even won the best wicket keeping award with out performing Rizwan and Sarfraz with the gloves as well.

 

[moghul]

Sorry for the selectors, it will be hard for them to keep him out of national cricket team now.

Great performance Kami, finally you won my support too.

 

[Barragan]

He took home $65k after all those awards.

 

[KyoOne]

TTF at international stage. Shehzad performed last year, was selected for Wt20 and lost us the games there.

Some players should just stick to domestics

 

[yasir]

Pakistan just picked the Captain * and he has been undone by 36 year old bad boy

And how did they miss Sanga's blinders?

 

[moghul]

He took home $65k after all those awards.

He needs to pay some "tax" to selectors, otherwise he has done everything possible.

 

[Madplayer]

How many times did he cross 30 in this tournament? IIRC he hardly played 2 innings of note. Its a shame that he will be selected now.

 

[aloo paratha]

How can he be given best WK?? Sangakkara was much better.

 

[dauntless]

Previous edition best batsman was umar akmal this year kami akmal next year Babar azam? Probably!

[MENTION=53290]Markhor[/MENTION] is in the hospital

Erm Congrats Kami

 

[Syed1]

Don't agree with the best wicket-keeper award. Kami has missed a few 50-50 chances. Sanga deserved it more.

He indeed was the best batsman and arguably by extension the man of the tournament.

 

[waleed88]

No one can take it away from Kami, he has shown more dedication and hard work at 36 years old than his more dim-witted/super-talented brother...
The guy defied all odds to be the best player of the tournament, thoroughly deserves a call back now for Pakistan cricket as an opener, specially with the loss of Sharjeel.
If you are committed to work hard, everything falls into place for you

 

[Messiah]

Kamran akmal should be the t20 captain. Best t20 player in the country and still not getting a chance while some non performers are made captains... We will be #10 in ranking at this rate

 

[silent ischemia]

The best wicketkeeper and fielder award in our setup is given to the one with most number of dismissals and catches respectively. It doesn't take into account the dropped catches, missed stumping and miss fields by the fielder. Sangakkara was easily the best wicketkeeper with a few amazing catches as was Haddin. Kamran to be honest has lost the agility and I remember him not going for catches in front of first or second slip because of his slowness.

 

[adil_909]

Does anyone know if he can field? He warrants selection as a batsmen alone. But not sure if Sarfraz is droppable at this stage...

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Team Pakistan.... here I come.........

 

[Hawkeye]

Bad day for the haters.

The fact is, he's our best LOI opener after Sharjeel. Shehzad, Masood, Hafeez, Fakhar don't come close.

Only Shahzaib can partner him.

 

[Zak_Fan]

People bashed him needlessly for stating the obvious. There truly was no valid reason for the selectors to keep him out of the team for so long.
