Losses in 2018 Asia Cup: A blessing in disguise considering the bigger scheme of things?

[Cricketlover11vns]

There is nothing embarrassing in getting humiliated in an irrelevant tournament called Asia Cup.

Just show patience for one year and watch Pakistan lift the trophy on Lords in 2019 WC.

My visualization power says, "Pakistan will take it in '19 WC 8 years after India took it in '11 WC."

Asia cup was relevant for you guys when afridi hit 2 sixes,even though we had world cup and champions trophy that time
Why a trophy become relevant only when Pakistan win it
Lol

Blessed are those who suffer.

Wish Indians had received this blessing in disguise.

Everyone was complaining about Rayudus and Jhadavs before the Asia cup. Now it all seems to have forgotten. Now these guys will be around till the WC, and they are sure to fail then.

People dont even remember that the one innings where the middle order was required to do something of note, it failed.

I haven't forgotten it. I still don't like Rayudu, Karthik and Jadhav as our middle order batsmen.

You like Dhoni? Mentioned batsmen are atleast better than current Dhoni

May be but we need an intelligent selector to make use of this.
Don't need to bring old TTFs and get rid of Babar from ODI because he crumble under pressure like his cousins against any good side. Imam at least work hard and perform his best. He could have save the team last night if we had another decent batsman.
Asif is useless in ODI and suit only T20 for quick fire 25-30.
Haris is finished!!!
Sarfraz needs to go.
Sadab needs to improve his bowling and batting.
Nawaz is useless.
Fahim is good for nothing.
Shiwari is good for weaker opposition and bowling pitch.
Amir needs to improve massive in order to play in LOI.
Hasan Ali needs to be quit from test.
Fakhar is another minnow basher, can only score in batting pitch and n pressure match. Even Afridi was a better batsman than him in pressure match. I am ok with his selection for scoring fast.

Too many holes need to filled up but not have enough time for 2019 World Cup.

Babar Is Only Player Who Performed In UnderPressure Imam Is Minnow Basher Like Ahmed Shahzad..

Blessing in disguise is continuing till now.

Surely, good in the bigger scheme of things.

Losing games is not a blessing in a disguise. But it's a reality check for some who actually think this team can win the WC.

To be honest it's really a blessing in disguise.

If pak performs bad at WC then sarf, Malik Hafeez, mickey, Azhar, Inzi and flower will be sacked.

Then pak can win 2023 WC.

After NZ loss: It was a meaningless bilateral series, we won the CT and Asia cup matters
After Asia cup loss: It was played on slow tracks of the UAE
After SA loss: Look at the positives, we lost by one game only
After Australia loss: We were missing our best players
After England loss: We are just preparing for the world cup, we still posted good scores
After Afghanistan loss: Relax, it is just a warm-up game

How can a sane person even think that a team with such a poor recent record will magically transform into a world beater at the world cup?
