Babar consistently misses a trick. Takes Saim off after one over that only conceded 5. In the last game he didn't give Abbas full quota and bowled out the awful Usama Mir.

And now drops one of his bowling

So all our prediction on Pakistan winning 4-1 have gone down the drain.

We fans overestimate our team too much, should have expected this to happen with babar as captain again.

You cant put everything on babar.. we have pedestrians in our squad that fail game after game.. saim.. iftikhar.. usama.. in bowling if its not shaheen its amir , if its not amir its naseem.. our team combination is always off.. we have no genuine batter in middle overs.. it showed today when we couldn't hit a boundary for 30 balls.. its criminal.. then cherry on top is low captaincy iq of babar
 
Babar Azam panicking. As much as him or the management downplays the importance of this series they know what the headlines will be tomorrow.

Fans, ex cricketers and journalists will be up Mohsin Naqvi's bottom and he will then get into Babar Azam's.
 
@emranabbas

I hope your saim ayub argument now is put to rest.

I told you, a burnt out guptill took care of him, PSL standards have been exposed this series

No way modern young NZ bats would struggle if a burnt put end of the road guptill is having a blast against this kid.
 
I have no idea what is going on.

We are not this bad that we can't even beat this NZ team.

All our players seem to be struggling after the Kakul camp.
 
Good wicket to get - Pak need some more wickets quickly to disrupt this
 
Looks like Usama will book his place in the squad. Hope they do keep Abrar in as well.

They seem insecure. Can happen when you don't even know if you'll be there, management will be there or who will even be chairman tomorrow.

Shadab did mentioned a couple of times in this series that as professionals they have to be ready but they haven't worked or known the coach/es that are to come for WT20
 
Why isn't Shadab bowling? He didn't bowl in the last over too. Can someone tell?
 
Usama booked his place in the World Cup.

Rizbar to open again.

How could the night get any worse?

That Kakul camp was a joke. 3 players are injured after that. That clown Naqvi only did it to clean the img of the army smh. Lol
 
Passenger 57 comes on to bowl...so-called as he is a passenger in the team and probably 57 years old!

I'm not putting everything on Babar, I even said we overestimate our team too much.

But babar bowling saim and bowling abass in thr PP knowing full well abass is horrible in PP and saim isn't even a threat to a burnt out guptill should be all she wrote.

He's a horrible captain, and a selfish mile stone obsessed captain who's leading a bad team. That's the reality.
 
Have thirdman and fineman back. Bowl two bouncers on Chapman's chin and see if he can cope with it

Apparently the Kakul camp was meant to help us hit sixes according to Naqvi.

But we've crawled our way to 170 as per usual.
 
Great now Chacha is bowling. When will this clown show end?

What's the point of shadab now anyway? He's not a full fledged batter, his purpose is dwindled if he doesn't bowl.

Anyway, please retire chacha for good. Most useless player and misbah curse I've ever seen.
 
The way to beat Pakistan is actually to run twos, I guess. NZ did this even last match.

Afghanistan destroyed PAK by placing and running twos in Chennai

PAK have no idea how to defend against that kind of cricket.
 
Horrendous batting by everyone bar Babar. Bad captaincy bad bowling

Saim bowled well.

Not his fault Babar dropped a catch.

That same batsman hit him.
 
Two lefties. Thats why Chacha is bowling and why Shadab etc aren't

I support Chacha bowling but I had this spreadsheet cricket that says only an offie should bowl to a leftie.

Babar is a timid and conservative captain. This is where Sarfraz was good at. He was proactive knew the tactics and his mind was working all the time.

Agreed. He give no value
 
NZ need to continue accelerating. PAK seamers are good at the death and you can't chase above 8 RPO against them

As i said low iq captaincy is cherry on top of bad team.. and it doesn't start from bowling abbas or saim in pp.. thats a desperate move of a captain who knows 178 is not enough but has a poker face at toss to tell us same
 
Whats the point of imad and shadab if saim and iftikhar are bowling over them

Spot on. Too much change can breed a toxic work environment.
 
Usama Mir turning the game on his head. Bowling (surprisingly) well compared to his last two games.
 
As I said, Usama booking his place.

Rizbabar opening.

The worst night ever for Pakistan cricket.

That catch was hard, it was too fast and hit too direct. No one from our dugout would catch it besides shadab.

And no, the kid bowled a no ball straight after.

You cant when you have 40 year old chachas in team.. one needs to be agile enough to stop opposition from running 2
