New Zealand v Pakistan | 3rd T20I | Dunedin | Jan 17 | Pre-Match Discussion

[Mohraheem]

I'm not understanding the hate for Chacha.

He was by far our best batter in the 2022 T20I WC in Aus.

In the last 12 months, he has a batting Strike Rate of 114 in ODIs and 162 in T20I's.

And he has a bowling Economy Rate of under 6 in both formats.

Don't compare him with Azam, who hasn't even scored 20 runs while wearing the green jersey.cl

Clearly you didn’t watch WC T20 Final against England famous 0. Not you watch the first 2 t20 against New Zealand. All you have seen his Domestic performance. When it comes to International Chacha is useless

U simply want rizwan booted out , but the problem his replacements are terrible one is an overthehill player in sarfraz.

And the other now being trialled simply is a hack whose fitness and physique is a huge question mark.


That only leaves that balochistan guy to be given a go as wicketkeeper haseebullah.

Well I dont mind Rizwan at 5 or 6 if his ego can tolerate it.

Guess what?

He will throw a hissy fit and his toys out of pram for that possible demotion.

Did he throw a hissy fit when Chadwick Walton was playing over him in PSL?

Or when he lost his test place to Sarfaraz?

Or the gloves to Azam Khan??

Rizwan doesn’t throw his toys out of any prams. As far as we know he also probably hasn’t got the selectors hostage in his basement like you said earlier.

The hate about Rizwan seems to be getting to QAnon levels these days.

Hope chacha and Azam fail again today that would be good for the team. If they scored some runs , then we will be stuck with them for next 6 month and they will fail again and again . Its ridiculous they keep playing after repeated failure . Azam is not fit to keep wickets and play as batter also. If he has to be n the team, he should not be keeping the wickets , Rizwan should be the keeper.

 

[shamaan]

I would only make 1 change that is Usama Mir out for Wasim Jnr

its better to drop both Usama and Aamer Jamal and bring in Nawaz and Wasim Jr

 

[boomboomcheema]

Another T20, another defeat loading for Pakistan.

 

[Asad T]

Who do you guys think should open the bowling with Shaheen?
Zaman, Wasim Jr and Rauf are basically first change / death specialists

Azam has played leagues all over the world so clearly he can Bat and keep and has a level of fitness your doing him an injustice by suggesting otherwise.

if you dont want him in the team that s your opinion and your entitled to it.

you cant drop players after a couple of games. He s only played 5 T20s and just come back in the side.

Every player should be given a fair run in the side once selected.

I want to see Haseebullah and Farhan given a shot in the last 2 games.

Jamal shouldnt of been dropped.

Remember the purpose of the series is to find a combination and a pool of players to take to the Carib WC.

Was jr with Zaman and Rauf in the middle.

 

[Rana]

Did he throw a hissy fit when Chadwick Walton was playing over him in PSL?

Yes he did

He cried about it in a press conference. Even though KK won the PSL with their strategy with Rizwan on the bench.

 

[Rana]

@Dr_Bassim is 100% right about Rizwan holding this team hostage.

It’s funny how his fans justify Fakhar batting at number 4 so that Rizwan can stay in the openers position

It’s even funnier to see his supporters waiting for any damn opportunity for Saim to fail so that Rizwan can still somehow claim to be the better opener.

I would say pakistan supporters want the team to win games rather than particular individual accolades.

I very much doubt any rizwan fan wants saim to fail.

Infact it would help rizwan having a ball striker like saim batting with him.

saim and rizwan are in no way competition for one and other.
