wow good company.

 

[Pete Rose]

hafeez and afridi in that list. oof.

 

[Abdullah719]

hafeez and afridi in that list. oof.

Afridi is Pakistan's fourth-highest run-scorer in ODIs.

 

[Rayyman]

Hafeez is a better ODI bat than Afridi and YK.

 

[indipper]

Was getting much criticism here. Glad he performed.

 

[shah_1]

Just good enough to secure his spot, that's what he has done over the years by scoring good lookng 40s and 50s without much impact

 

[coy0607]

somehow he's dragged himself past the 6K run mark

he's a survivor I guess, always finds a way to get in the team and keep going. Scores right when his spot is in danger

 

[Chief Destroyer]

Legend. What more can you say?

 

[Railu Katta]

He's not our main concern. We need to replace Azhar ASAP and Sarfi and Babar need a kick up the backside.

 

[Bleedgreen4ever]

Better than atleast 6 players on that list

 

[Madplayer]

hafeez and afridi in that list. oof.

Younis khan, one of the worst ODI player in the history of cricket is there too.

 

[Savak]

Hafeez is very under rated. The fact of the matter is that the reason why Hafeez and Malik are still there is because the replacements are just not there at this time.

 

[Abdullah719]

Hafeez is very under rated. The fact of the matter is that the reason why Hafeez and Malik are still there is because the replacements are just not there at this time.

Ironically the same argument was used for the likes of Misbah and Shehzad.

Obviously there's no replacements if no one is even considered.

 

[pakistani pride]

At what average and SR?

 

[Abdullah719]

At what average and SR?

32.89/75.50.

Post-2010, it's 37.83/79.53.

 

[Pete Rose]

Younis khan, one of the worst ODI player in the history of cricket is there too.

yes him too.

among the most useless 6,000 runs in ODI history. when did he ever wrestle control of an important match? when did he ever win us anything against anyone who matters in a moment that it mattered?

 

[New Yorker]

He's not our main concern. We need to replace Azhar ASAP and Sarfi and Babar need a kick up the backside.

no, he is. a 35 year old 'allrounder' who can't bowl, can't field, and averages around 20 or something with the bat outside of asia these days. a lucky 60 in a loosing cause, truncated by his characteristic inability to play sensibly for longer runs of time, should not be enough to save his career.

yes. the corrosive impact on the next generation of cricketers who will see this fundamentally soft player as someone to emulate, is severely underestimated.

 

[TeymurBlake]

Congrats to the professor but very surprising list. Younis Khan, Shoaib Malik and Shahid Afridi are all there makes for sorry readings especially when you look at there averages

 

[Hasan123]

Been a good servant for Pakistan cricket but he's a dishonest cheat at the end of the day. The way he played with icc rules and continues to play when he isn't good enough shows his true character.

 

[CadPakFan]

Good job! You got to your landmark now please leave so we can finally replace you with some young talent like Saud Shakeel or Rohail Nazir.
