What's new

Pakistan (146/9) secure a 41-run victory against UAE (105) and qualify for the Super Four of the Asia Cup 2025

Salman mercifully out. Another garbage innings.

There is a reason why his career SR in T20's in 119. This is why you don't believe in small size samples based of a tournament here and there. He has a significant sample size in domestic that shows he simply doesn't have the power or SR ability to bat as high as he needs for the international level.
Sample they use to judge players these days is two sixes in on over. That's it you are a t20 egend
 
Salman should do the honorable thing and get himself off from the t20i team.
He doesn't warrant a place in T20 cricket.
 
The bubble of agha being a saviour is bursting sooner than i thought..
Honest question, do u really think this lot is better than babar?
Babar all time? Or current?

All time no, Idk about agenda's or arguments on this forumn but I never stated i wanted Babar removed pre 2022.

People are still living in 2016-2021.

Babar in 2022 avg 16 and 25 with a sr of 100-110, In world cup and asia cup.

In 2024 he avg 40 woth a sr of 100 and rizwan sr was 90. Then in current wi odi series he couldn't buy a run. This is the same batsmen who once terrorised WI in their own den. Even if the pitch is different he was genuinely awful in the series.

Before that Babar was awful vs Canada and Ireland as well. His one solid innings of 74 vs Ireland came off a schoolboy pitch where Azam Khan who is a tragedy and comedy could strike at 300?

You guys are constantly equating 2016-2021 babar to present.

On current form he sucks and is Farhan did putperform babar in PSL. Their is no guarantee babar would perform.

Now about Rizwan, Rizwan actually has a solid case to be back since he still avg higher then this lot. His SR is awful yes but its better then what saim and farhan are contributing atm.
 
Fakhar is literally propping up Pakistan.
If he wasn't there shudder to think how bad things could be in this inns
 
How did Ramiz Raja 'destroyed' the FC system ?

These are the talking points of mediocre ex cricketers who have vested interest in perpetuating the farce knowns as departmental cricket.
Before Ramiz Raja we had decent test pitches.

To make babar look good he made absolute roads. Across all of domestic. Aqib ficed to a certain extent and we still have some pitches that are good hence Musa avg 11 in fc.

But overall those flat tracks allowed babar to avg 74 however usman khawaja avg 105, Root 200+, Brook 150+, etc etc and despite the high avg Pakistan didnt win a single game at home before aqib intervened
 
This lot cant play swing, seam, bounce, pace with the new ball. Cant play spin in the middle overs. Where do we go?
 
How can you destroy anything when there wasn't anything there in the first place
:inti
Exactly. @mominsaigol you remember the FC quality from 2008-2018 ? Wasim Khan, on Imran's orders, tried to revamp the system with introduction of 5 regional teams. Imran wanted to emulate the Australian system. They faced a lot of opposition from those who had vested interest in continuing that sub standard departmental system. Kamran Akmal used to moan a lot during those days but the actual players who played in the new regional system always praised it.

It is no coincidence that after regime change operation in Pakistan, the corrupt departmental system was reinstated.

I dont rmr us having decent pitches. I rmr having no test level batsman always and having green mambas where everyone avg 15 to 20 as bowler and that did destroy fast bowling for sure.
 
UAE got good Top 4. Sharafu got good head on his shoulder while waseem can tear apart any bowling line up..Asif Khan is their finisher. It can be interesting chase.

Ic, fair enough. Also bro I am 25, in 2008 I was 8. How can I remember 🤨.

But thanks for telling me, you're obviously older and more knowledgeable in this regard. I'll take back my Ramiz Raja claim.
