Memo to Misbah-ul-Haq and Mickey Arthur : This is called planning!

[Rafay Shafiq]

O'keefe was not required, but Australia include him in playing 11 against Pakistan in last Test as they want to give him practice and confidence for Indian series.

He took 12 wickets in first test against India now. Mibah Bhai and Arthur, this called planning. Sometimes we play for future. Only present is not everything

tbh we did very good planning before the England series and thats why we were successful. There was too much of a quick turnover from the WI series in UAE to NZ away and then AUS. If we had more time to prepare in those countries we would have won a couple of Tests IMO.

No, they included him in the playing XI because Sydney is a track that turns so they wanted to play two spinners.

PakPassion! This is called a bad thread.

SOK was pulled out of BBL to train with Panesar on how to bowl in India

Aus always plan when they tour india. I don't think what you are trying to say is totally true. By planning they should have won atleast one test match when they toured india a few years ago

RS and HC in Pakistani series were bold and choices for future, after one series defeat, they took serious steps... Where as Pakistan defeat after defeat is sticking with very old players and still have not learned...PSL itself is full of old TTFs...43 year old non-performing Captain is an embarrassment not pride of honor, PCB still does not understand

that was savage

also was expecting a gif somewhere in there ......

 

[Hawkeye]

Lol.

Poor logic. How did we win in England without good planning?

We lost 1st test in Aus due to our own fault and keeper dropping Smith. 2nd was close, 3rd badly lost.

We've done decently overseas and absolutely rule at a neutral venue.

Stop bashing your own selves for no reaosn.

This, too.

I don't know how people connect the dots between things that are totally different and not related.

they could have also played Zampa instead of keefe in sydney who was in good form for them at that time....May be they foresee keefe to be more useful in India than Zampa who is also not selected in the squad to india but they have brought in a newbie called swepson and also agar is in the squad too...Interesting as no test debut yet for zampa...
