Mohammad Rizwan vs Mohammad Haris – Is the comparison even justified anymore?

[mominsaigol]

All Australian WK post Gilchrist have been mediocre. A quality all-format WK like Rizwan is better than all of them.

Australia doesn't typically do all format keepers thats why, post gilly they've historically opted for test keeping specialists and whoteball keeper specialists.

Inglis and Carey are far superior. Wade at no 7 is a better keeper bat, brad Haddin is > Rizzu in virtually all metrics

But my man wants to laugh at others for comparing Harris with others

Haris at no 3 is better then Rizwan. I already posted an entire argument and rather then people addressing it they've as usual cut small pieces that they can counter without any context.

Backing and properly grooming Mohd Haris will be more beneficial for Pakistan Cricket in the long run vs sticking with Rizwan in the T20 format.

Mohd Haris needs to consistently play 4 day cricket to properly develop his batting skills overall to suit ODI, Test.

agree with the first part, disagree with the second. pakistani first class cricket is sub standard and completely irrelevant to modern day t20 cricket. hed be better off just playing loads of leagues until hes comfortable with his game.

Playing 4 day cricket will help him develop game awareness, his defensive skills, knowing how to bat through tough phases, improving his game against spin. The attack from ball one approach doesn't work all the time on difficult surfaces or against quality bowling attacks. If he can improve his defence, develop strike rotation then he can become a regular in ODI Cricket and Test matches.

Yes but how much 4 day cricket has he really played? It takes a body of work, experience to develop your overall game and skills.

why does he need to bat through phases, if he manages to slog through 7 or 8 overs hes pbly done his job. the attack from ball 1 approach doesnt need to work every time if you want to bat down till 8 or wherever fahim is playing these days. if he can average mid 20s, and strikes 140+ he'll be doing a good job at three.

he doesnt need to play odis, and absolutely no way should he be near the test team. let him specialise as a glorified slogger, and if other facets develop to his game great, but u dont want to take one of the few sloggers u have in the team and try to turn him into a test bat, hell never have the mentality to play test cricket, ull only ruin him as a t20 player.
