What's new

New Zealand (220/6) outclass Pakistan (105) by 115 runs in the fourth T20I to take an unassailable 3-1 lead in the 5-match series

Naseem would have done well on this track. Hopefully we'll get same tracks in ODIs so that our tuk tuk brigade can exhibit proper technique.
 
Hopefully same squad with just Saim and Fakhar in for Bangladesh

We have to smash the living daylights out of them on our roads!
 
Don't really have the quality to be a top 5 side in any format. There isn't any talent coming through to change this soon.

Make peace with it.
Enjoy days like Friday but keep expectations low.
 
This is a poor batting unit alright. But this is a regular bowling unit. So lot of blame should be attached to bowling. You cannot bowl like this match after match after match. Also captaincy is really bizzarre. This gives you a lot of assistance to seamers especially with new ball. But Salman Ali Agha was tossing the enw ball to Khushdil shah, Abrar.
 
I hope Nz prepare same pitches for odis so we can see the calibre of Tuktuk players.
It’s not really the pitches

It’s just the fact that their bowlers are much more skilled with swing and seam than our bowlers

We used to have great bowlers for these pitches maybe 10 years ago.
 
This is the issue. People want Pakistan to fail so those two come back

Its the biggest fitna Pakistan is fighting
Lol, you should be the last one to accuse other for wanting Pakistan to fail. Have a look at your old posts.

Having said that, no, we should not get back to Rizwan and Babar, but rather keep giving new youngsters chances. Just need a couple of proper hitters alongside Saim and Fakhar.

We don't have the fast bowlers to make use of conditions
 
6/7 more runs and we can avoid one one of the other humiliations

Of course I wanted Pakistan to get rid of the two stumbling blocks in the wrong positions for them to actually be able to compete in the first place

These boys will have to end the series well in next game and then need a decent PSL. Otherwise, tuk tuks can sneek back in.

Tuk tuks will have the same pitch and conditions in the PSL just as the heavy hitters

If they clearly are better, we shall see.
 
Where are you guys @Rana @mominsaigol ..... I hope we are not alone watching this game???
I'm on gold coast travelling and enjoying myself. It's my first time their. Let me enjoy myself. I haven't watched the match today but have checked the scorecard.

Enjoy your 55/7, while I enjoy my post iftari party
 
Saim slots back & Hassan moves to 3 for the moment. I am not sold on Salman at all as I just don't think he has it in him to play bounce & pace. Shadab needs to be shown the door along with Shaheen. Arafat & Akif to replace these two in the next series.

I haven't really seen Samad bat so I'll give him a series or two before making a call on him.
Agha is the only proper batsman in the team. Irfan also has potential.

what do you expect when Shaheen conceded 23 in first 2? cant blame captain much because your premium bowler showed no signs of swing or movement
 
I keep telling this. Pakistan was never a batting might in LOI. Almost all their major tournament wins were on the back of bowling. Be it is 1992 world cup or 2009 world T20 win. 2017 was an aberration. But by and large they never bulldozed teams with batting match after match. It is well and good trying to match the batting migth of other teams. But when you do that you do not stop focusing on your historically core strength which is bowling.

WOuldn't you want to open with Haris Rauf? WHy was he brought on so late. By the time he came on they were already way ahead.
 
The Zac foulkes guy bowls off the wrong foot...
India used to have Debo Mohanty in the 90's and early 2000's...who was similar

Mike procter was another guy who used to bowl off wrong foot... :dhoni
 
Pakistani players and fans get too excited and arrogant after one good win.

And PCB starts dishing out videos after videos.

Never actually “learn”.

enjoy your time bro
 
This ground looks beautiful. I have never been stadiums like these where you can sit on the grass.

Harris role is to bowl after power play.. we needed another bowler who can move the ball.. this team combo is wrong.. we have Shadab and irfan niazi coming ahead of Khushdil and Abdul Samad.

We have produced the ATG wrong footed bowler Sohail Tanvir. Was he Man of the tournament in first IPL?
 
What’s Samad trying to do? Stay not out to boost his average?

Shadab should be replaced by a seamer or proper spinner. He is a fake all rounder. Not goode nough in either department. Now fielding also sucked today.
 
We need to remove Aqib and Shaheen from this set up and our team will improve. They are liabilities.
 
Look at the pace and bounce the NZ bowlers are getting from the wicket. Shaheen is such a dumb useless bowler, you can give him the spiciest pacy bouncy Perth, Johannesburg wicket and he will still bowl 6 consecutive yorkers. The sooner the selectors move on from him the better. He has reached his ceiling
Indeed no swing at all, Wasim jr would have bagged a couple of wickets or more with his swing both ways ...

true....he was 'pankha' :)...but terrific bowler and very hard to pick, and decent batsman as well, i remember him slogging a 6 in T20 Wc finals
