Pakistan team is better with shadab
We tried khushdil chacha irfan and everyone of them brings less utility than shadab

Shadab needs to sort out his bowling but he is must in t20is.

He is a must in T20
 
Give farhan and Khushdil this series. If they do well keep them or else move on.

I fear haris ll need to bat lower down the order in order to accommodate farhan.

Hasan
Shaheen
Rauf
Sufyan
Abrar
Ali raza
Abbas

These should be our main bowlers going forward with shadab agha saim.

Also we never use faheem up the order. Use the guy at different places give him some balls to play in these meaningless t20s atleast
 
Shadab
Agha
Shaheen
Saim
Faheem

These 5 should be psl captains.
Maybe add hassan ali or haris
 
Except a couple of guys, these lads aren't bulit to hit long sixes and they don't have
the skill to time the ball well

Why? Because Babar and Rizwan are not in it?

Don’t understand the logic of playing Hasan Ali and faheem ashraf as your opening pacers. This could potentially be the worst ever pace attack
 
Only Litton and Tanzid tried eh?

SHadab has had a fabulous MOM winning day :afridi
 
Bangladesh need 78 runs in 28 balls.

This win will be important for Pakistan , they required this.

Don’t worry too much.

Think of the batting. If the bowling is poor and can leak 200+

The batting knows they have to be ready to give them more and more runs to defend.
 
Bunch of losers . I don't see and international quality batter only hacks.

Batting is more important in these conditions.

Hassan isn't a bad bowler by any means though.

Tanzid, Litton, and Jaker did well. Rest flopped.

Truth be told, BD can't chase 200 even on the flattest of pitch. They need sluggish surface to be competitive.

i still like warner as captain for kk

maybe haris as captain instead of babar/saim for pz? haris has more captaincy expirence
 
Political brownie points aside, what do Pakistan gain by playing against their ex colony??
 
I like Pakistan's training kit. It has a nice design (black and green with a rustic/fading away design).
 
BD are all-out for 164. Hasan Ali gets his first 5-fer in T20I.

Pakistan win by 37 runs and go up 1-0. Congratulations.

M haris is a character who needs handling not the one who can handle a squad

KK should give captaincy to someone young and build team around him.

Maybe even rope in faheem if they can with less retentions next year
 
1 thing clearly changed with Pak is the mindset , play with intent.. highly lacking under babar captaincy, everyone was playing for their own place from 1 to 11 + individual brilliance here and there won them games...

Refreshing to see Agha Salman as a captain with clear mind and a vision.. Hesson will take care of the road map

This set up needs to be given backing not just for this T20 wc but all the way to the next one
 
This team is looking a lot more sensible compared to the days of RizBar.

Still some issues to iron out but at least they have a respectable approach on the field.
 
Looks like Towhid Hridoy is just another mediocre Bangladeshi batsman.

Completely useless cricket nation :inti
 
Haris Rauf once again leaking runs. Be it tip class team or a weak team, haris is bound to be beaten
 
Now our 3 consecutive 50 maker Naseem shah will replace haris Rauf in 2nd t20

The main things is the team had a right combination after get humilated for many years by making a team around babar-rizwan. Everyone in the team had a clear role and there was no adjusting batting positions.

Finally you understand 👌

Rizwan was pathetic hope you understand why
Also sufyan would have been a better option than the over rated abrar

Poor old @RedwoodOriginal paying the price for his previous misdemeanours of backing a rubbish T20 approach

He changed his views over a year ago. He learned the hard away.

My opinion on Rizwan's T20 batting changed a long time ago.

Sufiyan should be in the squad but Abrar is still Pakistan's best white-ball spinner. As he showed in the PSL.
 
Hasan Ali bagged his career best T20I figures to propel Pakistan to a 37-run win over visitors Bangladesh in the first T20I of the three-match series here at the Gaddafi Stadium, Lahore on Wednesday night

Pakistan defended their 201-run total dismissing Bangladesh for 19.2 overs as Hasan just took 20 balls to register his maiden five-for in T20Is and 11th in Pakistan colours across formats. 30-year-old Hasan set the tone for the successful defence by drawing the first blood in the second over.

Opening batter Tanzid Hasan (31, 17b, 2x4s, 3x6s) then fought back with a flurry of boundaries but Hasan castled him at the end of the fourth over with 37 runs on the board.

Towhid Hridoy (17, 22b, 1x4) and skipper Litton Das – also the top scorer for Bangladesh with a 30-ball 48 inclusive of one four and three sixes, then stitched a 63-run stand steering Bangladesh to 75-2 at the halfway mark and 92-2 at the end of the subsequent over.

Shadab Khan struck in the 12th over to break the partnership, while Khushdil trapped Towhid leg-before an over later. With Bangladesh 107-4 at the start of 14th over and the required run rate mounting Salman Ali Agha eked out Shamim Hossain, while Shadab got rid of Rishad Hossain in the 16th over further deepening the trouble for the visitors.

Hasan returned in the 18th over to strike twice taking his tally of wickets to four before removing Shoriful Islam in the 20th over to bring his five-for. Hasan, who took the field for Pakistan in a T20I for the first time since May 2024, gave away 30 runs.

Bangladesh lost their last seven wickets for a mere 64 runs in last 7.2 overs. Shadab returned figures of 4-0-26-2, while Khushdil, Salman and Faheem picked up one wicket each.

Earlier, Pakistan had romped to 201-7 in 20 overs – their 3rd score of 200 or more in last seven T20Is, courtesy a fighting half-century from skipper Salman, while Hasan Nawaz and Shadab too chipped in with blazing forties.

After opening batter Fakhar Zaman and Saim Ayub fell within the first eight balls of the innings, Salman joined forces with Mohammad Haris (31, 18b, 4x4s, 1x6) to raise a 31-ball 48 for the third wicket as Pakistan finished the Powerplay with 52-2.

Following Haris’ departure in the seventh over, Hasan Nawaz walked in to bat at no.5, while Salman brought up his third T20I half-century off 29 balls at the end of 10th over before falling to Hasan Mahmud for a 34-ball 56 in 12th.

Hasan’s (2x4s, 4x6s) 22-ball stay at the crease came to halt as Rishad dismissed him for 44 after getting hit for a six and two fours on the first three balls of the 14th over. With Bangladesh giving away just 11 runs off the next two overs, Khushdil fell on the first ball of the 17th over.

Shadab, who hit a brisk 25-ball 48 at no.6, struck five fours and three sixes to give Pakistan’s innings an impetus as they collected 43 runs off the last three overs. Faheem contributed unbeaten 11 off six balls hitting a solitary six to a fiery 50-run seventh-wicket stand with Shadab off only 22 balls.

For Bangladesh, apart from Shoriful Islam (2-32) all other bowlers dismissed one batter each.

It's one match. Who was the leading spin bowler in the PSL? Abrar brings something different than Shadab with his mystery spin. Shadab bowled well today but maybe you are forgetting how utterly horrible he has been with the ball in the past two years. Shouldn't make big judgements based one 1-2 matches if you are planning for the World Cup.

If Shadab stops performing with the ball again then Pakistan will need both Abrar and Sufiyan in the World Cup.
 
It boggles my mind that Bangladesh still can't find a decent opener - throughout Tamim's whole career, i've seen so many batsmen open with him and after his retirement, they still can't find a proper opener. Despite what people thinks, Liton's is a terrible batsmen IMO. And this guy played over a decade +. I think Tamim debuted around 2007 right? How Bangladesh will replace Tamim, Shakib (irreplacable if you ask me), Mushfiqur and Mahmudulla (and Mashrafee - I guess Taskin is taking on the mantle) is beyond me.

Hello, bro light. You are right, to this day we are yet to find Tamim Iqbal replacement. Actually, we don't even have Imrul Kayes replacement. We have this player in emerging team Jishan Alam who seems hopeful.

The only player we found replacement is probably Mushy. All of our next generation WK are actually decent in Jaker Ali, Nurul Hasan, Mahidul Ankon.

Tanzid hasan was threatening to take game away with his clean striking, I think you should back him as replacement for Tamim atleast in LOIS.

Tanzid scores some pretty 20s, 30s, and 40s. He doesn't score big. He got so many chances.

He is a good prospect but needs to be consistent and needs to score big.
 
This victory against Bangladesh 'C' was not dominant enough especially while playing in gone conditions :inti

In one of the most highly populated country, it is near impossible to not find 2 proper openers - your board is doing something wrong for sure. Either there is huge corruption in the backend or they don't give to flying pidgeon about your grass root cricket. Not saying that everyone is going to be like us, look at Rohit and Virat, two of the greatest Indian players to play the game, but there are young guys knocking on the door to take on their position. And we always had something on the pipeline - waiting. Again, not everyone needs to be like India but to find some DECENT openers - don't even have to be great, avg can be in 35ish - BD can't produce a single one, even half decent of Tamim's skills (and Tamim is a good batsmen - but not great either).

You guys were really lucky to find someone like Shakib - he himself carried the team for so long on his shoulder. I feel bad for him. If he was an Indian/Aussie/English player - he would be hailed as one of the greatest player to play the game along side other greats. But he doesn't get the recognition because of the BD tag he carries.
