Pakistan inflict 111 run defeat on the West Indies in the 1st ODI

We are too good for this Windies side despite our toothless captain. I wonder why we are ranked so far behind them.
 
Azhar Ali following script given to him before the toss. 15 overs up and he brings on toothless Malik even though batsman are struggling and you have a new bat at the crease. :facepalm:

Azhar is really pathetic captain.

Probably because of the lefti in wicket. But, this is not entirely his fault, because the attack is not balanced. Against the run of play, Zampa just has got Roussoe out with a perfectly bowled slider - Azhar don't have such sinners. What he has darters who won't get anything from wicket, unless batsmen go after them.

Moreover, like WY, I am sure Aazzu is thinking that he is 35 short ..........
 
This has to be one the MOST boring series I have ever seen
 
Hassan Ali is maturing by the day.
I really don't like Nawaz not being utilised to the fullest. He is an attacking bowler hence should be in earlier.
This is my first post btw.
 
Are the Windies even playing to win? Doesn't seem like it. No urgency, no application...
 
Every bowling change by azhar has given him wickets. where are the haters. Talk about captaincy.
 
In other news SA are demolishing the World Champs

Without bowling change also would have given him wicket. It's easy to defend 288 under lights in UAE, that too against WI. Apart from a slip, what unconventional has he done so far?
 
Lol UAE crowd cheering for Windies. That's how boring these matches have been
 
samuels trying to attack malik... As a captain I will bring back my strike bowler Immad or AMIR just now to take Samuels wicket..Lets see if Azhar has the brains to do..
 
Why is Malik bowling? Its just stupid logic ..
 
De Kock is undoubtedly the best ODI opener now. I wonder, he, Nawaz & another kid from Pindi (forgot name, probably Waheed), were the star of an U19 series where PAK won & Waheed was probably MoS - 4 years down the line De Kock is in World XI, Waheed is probably bringing gloves for Tannu ........
 
Bhaia Aazzu has missed that now there are 2 right handers on wicket, so I stand corrected - the script was that Mian to bowl after 15 overs...........
 
lol Malik getting smashed now.

There is actually no reason for him for pitch any overs in the first place. You have your 5 bowlers and unless one of them are really struggling, there is no need to use Malik.
 
stupid azhar changing ends for nawaz and bringing in immad to replace nawaz... oh god :facepalm: why this buffoon as a captain...

when u have a programmed captain like azhar nothing works.. that is why he should be axed as captain...
 
Now watch as Azhar hands the match to the Windies
 
Sarfraz setting the fields.....a sign of things to come regarding the captaincy? Just as Ali takes a catch. Or does he?
 
good catch in the end by azhar.. well done boy.... this wicket should have come an over earlier barring three boundaries had he bowled IMMAD instead of malik when he see samuels going against malik the previous over.. these are the little things that differentiates a good captain from an ordinary stuff..
 
To be expected. It's basically a t20 total chase from now on in......they gonna have to go for the shots which will bring wicket taking opportunities
 
Pollard thought Nawaz is also like Imad, who can't turn the ball. Therefore, paid the price.

Pollard is WI Afridi.
 
just bowl nawaz out completely now, dont leave him for later pls... give two more overs to immad and if he still goes for a boundary an over bring back amir to partner nawaz...let see how azhar brain works on match awareness as captain....
