I think I'd have to agree with you. I don't think Latif belongs at that position and with the current group of players, Alam is the only one that makes sense at that spot

 

[taaveez]

Well U.Akmal ain't going to score in every game.

Nazir, Farhat and Latif flopped it too. Why are you picking on a player who has the potential to be one of the best for Pakistan?

Because when Swann started the over, I predicted it to my buddy watching the game with me that Umar would be out playing a cut shot to the offspinner, or would at least miss several cuts, and then fall under pressure.

I don't wanna pick on the others (read: Farhats) because they haven't learnt in 10 years. I think if someone just coaches Umar on playing cuts for half a day, he can actually overcome this.

 

[SpiritOf1903]

Momo devotees - or maybe himself even - in the crowd.

 

[saj001]

This the effect of chris gayle bat

 

[ZAK]

Come on malik man dont waste balls yaar

 

[Afridi_Fan]

73/4 in 13.

 

[Sohaib-789]

73/4 after 13 overs

 

[Lethal]

73-4 after 13 overs.

There is more grouping on PP than people imagine there is in the team

[Momo]

fawad alam is best batsman in pakistan lineup .. great shot

Let's not get carried away now.

 

[Seen Sheen]

are you talking about your 'Kainchay' series?!

 

[Shaheerthe2nd]

73/4

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Malik needs to get 50.

 

[Sohaib-789]

Botham back on

 

[ZAK]

Thank you for agreeing with me

 

[Amjid Javed]

Pakistan needs a Razzaq special at end to post a competative total here!

 

[xbox]

Ramiz talking too much crap

 

[IMMY69]

Fawad should never have been dropped from the test side...

If we can get to 130+ it will be a competitive total..

here's hoping.

 

[saj001]

lcuky malik

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Lucky

couple

 

[12thMan]

Current partnership 34 runs, 4.3 overs, RR: 7.55 (Shoaib Malik 19, Fawad Alam 15)

 

[Momo]

Momo devotees - or maybe himself even - in the crowd.

Certainly a devotee. Momo approves though. :mo

 

[IMMY69]

Malik once again showing his weakness against the short ball...

 

[ZAK]

2 more to Malik

 

[Lethal]

Top edge and S.Malik lucky.

2 more runs.

 

[Big Mac]

Malik placing the ball perfectly between two fielders, superb placement using just the top edge

 

[Sohaib-789]

Malik lucky fine leg was not back.
Good intent being shown though.

 

[TaZ]

top edge lands safely between 2 fielders LUCKY

 

[Seen Sheen]

trying his own version of Pull shot again!survived though..

 

[Eagle_Eye]

pathetic pull... why cant pakis play that shot!!

I used to predict saeed anwer's wicket does it make him a bad player? Cut shot is Akmals strong point why would u leave it when it pays off most of the time. IT WAS A GOOD CATCH.

I think Fawada can get us there.

[Sohaib-789]

They should target about 130 from here

 

[saeed-sohail]

Malik true to his strike rate lately.
