PAKISTAN ZINDABAD, Saya Mafia murdabadddd. RIP to all the Karan Arjun fans. They must be in tears. What a humiliating defeat for Afghanis. After all the yapping, got too big for their shoes, like i predicted before the start of the tri-series, normalcy has resumed. With Babar we could even lose to USA LOL

Very important to put Afghanistan in their place.

Spinners are looking deadly. It gave me Ajmal, Hafeez, Afridi flashbacks.
 
Pakistan scored 140 on a 100 track lol

And you say Hesson+Agha don’t know what they are doing? :ROFLMAO:
It is easy to say these things in hindsight

It was a 160 pitch. We could have scored more but for brainless hacks in the team; Farhan and your favourite Haris. Better sides like India and Sri Lanka might have chased this down.

spinners won the game for us today which is good to see

Good fightback shown by the team despite defending a modest total. Afghans were just too pathetic with the bat. This was not a 66 run pitch
 
More than Final Trophy , I think this win will help Pak get over Nerves they have had against Afg game in game out. This was one of rare dismantling handed out by Pak to Afg . If we come across them again in Asia cup , There will be scars
 
Solid revenge from Pakistan after the last Pakistan/Afghanistan match. MOTM performance from Nawaz. Gave them some important runs with the bat and had an incredible bowling spell. Ugly pitch for the final.

I think there are still legitimate issues & concerns with Pakistan's batters but for today, lets just savour the victory.
 
Those who were saying Hesson is doing injustice or has something against Shaheen for not picking him against Bangladesh series have got their answer now.

Shaheen is the best pacer for Pakistan and even Hesson thinks so. On a spin track Shaheen was the first and only pace bowling choice in this important game.
 
They always do buddy

Plenty of buried souls here. Empty vessels always make the most noise.

We beat West Indies too,

We could have beaten Bangladesh in Bangladesh as well.

Pakistan are so much better without Babar and Rizwan.
Someone pull up the receipts. Under Hesson, we’ve bagged 10 of the last 13 T20Is and just strolled past Afghanistan in the final. Contrast that with the horror show before—losing 80% of games, getting slapped by USA, and praying against Ireland. So what exactly are we rioting about—winning too much?

Winning against whom though!

We should have won the tri series without dropping a game - period
 
Watch your language paapey

Keep celebrating wins against mediocre teams

Reality check awaits us next Sunday
Afghanistan in these conditions aren’t mediocre . Remember how Naseem saved you from embarrassment in Sharjah , imad in England . Malik in Dubai . Asif in Dubai , then embarrassed you in CWC 23 . So this is a big win
 
No need for such cheap shots. Hit the appropriate thread in timepass section and tag me there if you want to discuss something with me Mr Alpha.
I can tell your loyalties lie somewhere else, couldnt care less about your opinion buddy.

People acting like beating Afghanistan in Sharjah is some gully-cricket warmup. This is the same side that’s gone toe-to-toe with Pakistan and lately done better in ICC events. Under the great ‘Rizbabar era,’ we either got bullied or escaped via one-man freak heroics. Two back-to-back thumpings in a week? Sorry, I must’ve missed when that was normal.



This is getting hilarious.

This should be pretty obvious. In Sharjah, on a rank turner, ide rather play SENA team.
 
A wonderful win. A good team effort with the bat. Everyone chipped in a little bit and we scraped to a score.

Nice to see some unfancied players come good. Hope they can take this confidence going forward.

A message to our fans. Don't give up so easily.
Congratulations . Are you confident now for the match on September 14? :kp
 
Shows we are a better team in UAE with both Abrar and Sufiyan playing

and without radarless ultra-expensive Rauf

We can take some confidence bro but realistically India is far ahead. Will always back my team though, ive seen some crazy moments as a Pak fan so hoping that one or two players have a freakish day and manage to get us over the line. Miracles can happen but India is far too strong in batting and bowling.
 
Salman Ali Agha at the post-match presentation:

"I think we knew that a score around 140 would be challenging, and once we got there, we felt it would be a tough chase for them.

(On Mohammad Nawaz) Since his comeback, he has been outstanding — delivering with bat, ball, and in the field. Whenever we are in tough situations, Nawaz is the kind of player we can rely on.

There was a lot of talk, even from ex-cricketers and on social media, about playing two spinners. But for us, the decision always depends on conditions. We assess the pitch on the day and then decide. Today, playing two spinners worked well.

This series was tough for us here in Sharjah, but our focus was always on preparing for the Asia Cup. Of course, we wanted to win, but the bigger goal was preparation.

(On Asia Cup) As a team, we’ve been building well since the Bangladesh series. We’re in good shape, and I believe we’re fully ready for the Asia Cup."
 
As expected, absolutely no complement from Rashid for Nawaz or in general for Pakistan. This shows their mentality.
They will get knocked out by Sri Lanka and Bangladesh

They can’t compete if the ball isn’t spinning for them, and if it’s spinning….well Sri Lanka and Bangladesh have proper spinners for these conditions too!
 
Verygood win, Pakistan just need to sort out their wicket keeping issue and replace Saman Mirza with Abbas Afridi then they could be a force in heir form.Asia Cup,, providing Pakistan opners get their form.
 
The level of satisfaction is unmatched when India, Auatralia or Afghanistan get hammered lol
 
why are you thanking un elected Rep of Fascist regime?
He deserves some appreciation for somehow being able to secure a decent coach after the mess they made with Kirsten and Gillispid and for responding well to Indian pressure.

However he deserves criticism for listening to Aqib and other fiascos related to domestic cricket.

I think he has learned his lesson to not trust leeches like Aqib and other ex players. We will see more professionalism going forward.
 
What do you mean? Pakistan were pathetic, Afghanistan were worse. Afghanistan choking doesn’t change the fact that the new template BS got found out.
Can someone remind me the last time the Rizbabar-era Pakistan thumped Afghanistan twice in a week? Asking for a friend… or maybe for the people skipping this question.
