Pcb have announced 31 members for the camp for odis and t20 series against

westindies ,Interestingly rizwan is not picked for the camp which is due

to 35 year kamran akmal who make a comeback after last played in 2014 is

picked as a keeper for the camp .i think Inzi should have picked rizwan for

odis and kamran akmal for t20s and if kami did well in t20s he should have

been picked for odis then but seems like selector have made there mind and

kamran well be picked for both t20 and odis against westindies

Your thought Remember rizwan is best wicket keeper behind the stumpwe

have currently who was excellent the gloves against aus in aus
 
Good. Been a total dud with the bat in international cricket and struggles against spin.
 
Which is fine. Rizwan though has improved his keeping leaps and bounds has lost his mental game as a batsman. He needs to go back to domestic.
 
He doesn't fit into the loi setup for the time being. I just hope he isn't discarded for tests
 
I like Rizwan. He may not yet have the stats but he seems to have good attitude and plenty of potential. Akmal has nothing.

Amir is a better batter than Rizwan. He has had plenty of chances but can't deliver in international cricket. He has done absolutely nothing noteworthy and plenty of opportunity to do so.
 
He is fine in domestic cricket .. He can't control the imternational level unless we are playing with ****** team like zim, Kenya lol
 
Very sad, this guy was supposedly the next coming of middle order prime Afridi, at least according to many Pak fans two, three years ago he was.

What a shame, turned out to be a nothing player in the end.

100% agreed, he bats like a tailender most of the times, not a reliable option in the lower order and can't be played in the middle order because it's already packed.

A keeper who can't bat well enough doesn't deserve to be selected for Pakistan because batting is already weak.

Find me one Quote from anyone here who called him the next afridi let alone "many"
 
To exclude him even from a 31-man squad is extremely harsh.

This all but confirms Kamran's inclusion in both the T20I as well as the ODI squad.
 
bump

Rizwan scored a brilliant not out hundred for pak in ACC-Emerging-Teams-Cup-SF agaisnt afghanistan

105 of 99 balls with 8 fours and 3 sixes
 
Rizwan was hopeless when we saw him play real cricket last time. And I expect nothing has changed

It's an update yes, but has no implication on his pedigree
 
lets see how does kamran performs today .one thing is for sure sarfraz will not presist with kami long if

he fails continuously

in the past for pak when they drop from national team he have not lost confidence and working on his batting

and he is best fielder also.

Yes the answer to that is not to replace him with rizwan. Regardless of all the spin by sarfaraz, kamran plays as a batsman. And if he fails (which he will, whether now or at champions trophy) a batsman should replace him.

ok who should be selected if sarfaraz get injured

Back up wk in the squad. Neither Akmal or Rizwan are good enough to play as batsmen only in the team. One of them should be in the squad but neither of them have the batting ability to be selected in the team.

kami have not the keeping ability either sadly rizwan is best available wicket keeper

yes, but this discussion to me was always about whether either deserve to be in the playing eleven if sarfaraz is playing. neither do.
 
things are not looking bright for Rizwan, as Inzi is supporting Kamran. Looks like Rizwan is not getting back into the national team anytime soon.

Kamran Akmal is 35 years old, he doesn't have long left, Rizwan if he does well in domestic will definitely be back
 
not fair on Rizwan he should have been in squad and let him develop rather we selected an uncle :facepalm:
atleast for ODIs rizzu should have been included

inzi made him under 23 captain for a reason

Rizwan is still in the mix
 
Rizwan is absolutely rubbishy batsman, with the national team for 2 years, has no balance, no shorts, cannot play spin at all. Nobody gets that many chances, he is nice guy and very good fielder, but your main skill has to be there, it's a national team not charity team 🙄🙄🙄

Agreed,terrible batsman who doesn't known how to play spin at all.

No backup keeper for WI tour, good to see likes of Rizwan and Kamran not selected.
 
He definitely has to improve his batting no doubt. I trust him to do the hard work and comeback quickly. He has improved his keeping a lot being with the team for 2 years. He is definitely the backup for Sarfraz in terms of keeping. Actually he is the better keeper than Sarfraz but left out for his batting and his counterpart is the vice captain for tests and captain for LOIs
 
Sarfraz will retire from Tests in 3-4 years. That's when Rizwan will get a chance.
 
Rizwan has done nothing noteworthy as a batter in internationals. Should no longer be considered.

I hope the same rules apply for Umar Akmal and Ahmed Shehzad, or is it ok for them to constantly fail just because they are PP'ers' favourites?
 
Rizwan shouldn't be discarded forever but his form was terrible. He always looks like he's gonna trip over his shoelaces at the crease. Still remains the best fielder in Pakistan for me though.
 
I think he is the worst batsman I have seen in the past 10 years. God. He is so, so, so bad. And too short to find any success.

I agree, he has zero temperament and technique. Had plenty of chances. Not sure why he captained the U23 team, bizarre decision.

He should be sent back to domestics and end of.
 
Now height is a limiting factor for batsmen too? :sachin :don

Maybe not so much but he isn't exactly technically perfect either so with that height and not much of a technique, I see him maintaining his average of 25 in international cricket.
 
He has sound technique and is a good finisher. He deseves a long. We need him for odis.

Scored a century in the semi final, total number of centuries by youngsta beauties Hussian and Haris = zero.


I have a problem when people hate on a cricketer without a reason but turn a blind eye when his performance is better than their favorites. Rizwan justified his selection as captain by being arguably the best performing batsman in the side after Imam.

sound technique?
what sound? hack hack?
& finisher? yea like he can finish everything like momentum,RR,chance of getting a team to a decent total & can even finish hope of winning.. so yea Good finisher... will finish pk team.
 
Bhai jaan stop shooting from the hip. He scored a century in the semifinal.

vs SRI 26 of 46
vs AFG 105 of 99
vs BAN 12 of 16
vs HK 18 of 12
vs Nepal 10 of 18


check the strike rate and performance lol yes one century and what he did rest ? he's the one shooting from hip
 
So disappointed to see Rizwan out of the side. I think he is one of Pakistan's brightest young talents, along with Fawad Alam who would have been a regular international batsman if he was born other than in Pakistan.
