Not really.

I can't show it now but the batsmen's shoe had a black boarder.
If you follow that you can clearly see nothing behind the line when bail was off
 
Who would you have in the team Faheem who beats the batsmen one in 20 balls or Usman who beats batsmen every third or fourth ball.
 
He’s a great talent, needs more experience at international level but from what I’ve seen from in domestic cricket he can go really far
 
Is there anyone who actually likes Faheem in the team?? All I see are pies when this guys bowls..
 
Madhevere is a pretty impressive young talent. Hopefully Zimbabwe can nurture him well to strengthen their batting.

It does not matter who it is against a good googly is a good googly against anyone. Usman has been doing that in matches he has played recently.

It does turn a lot which is a good sign.

But it also matters how easy it is to read. I don’t trust Zimbabwe batsmen’s reading skills
 
Unlucky Hasnain

Haider Ali misses the chance with his Ghenghis Khan Mustache

Zimbabwe wins or losses don’t matter. What matters is Haider and Khushdil getting time out in the middle. That’s all this series is good for.
 
In his last 10 T20I matches Faheem Ashraf's bowling stats are as follow

Overs bowled - 28.1
Wickets - 5
Average - 48
Economy Rate - 8.6
Strike Rate - 34

Let's not even talk about his batting lmao I'd rather take Amir, Wahab, Starc, etc over him as a batsman. His bowling has been absolutely atrocious over these last 10 innings averaging 48 at an economy rate of 8.6 is utterly horrendous. The medium pace trundler needs to be dropped for good, he's a waste of a spot in the side. I'd rather play an actual pacer or heck even throw in another batsman instead of playing him he's no all-rounder, he's the exact opposite, can't bat or bowl, waste of a spot.

Amir, Wahab, Hasan Ali, and even Musa Khan can all bat better than him. Not sure why Faheem is considered a specialist all rounder while they aren’t.

And people here on PP compared him to Hardik Pandya :))
 
I think it's high time plug should be pulled on faheem and we try a new all rounder maybe ammad or yamin
 
And with another garbage performance that raises Faheem Ashraf's bowling average to 55.4 in his last 11 T20I's, talk about a waste of a spot. Economy rate was also once again around where it's been on average in his last 11 matches - 8.75.
 
Usman should have competed his quota to see how he performs, and he was bowling well.
 
Haris Rauf is world-class in T20s. Too good for these minnows man.
 
Hasnain improved leafs and bound he was hugely unlucky in national t20 Sind's atrocious fielding cost him atleast couple wickets every match
.
 
Husnain has done well given his bowling action doesnt give him much control over length. His height is definitely helping but a more high arm action will give him more control and bounce.

Really I don't know how many times he has to fail for Misbah to understand that he's not an all-rounder. It's honestly just a title more than anything when it comes to Faheem. Came into the side supposedly as an "all-rounder" and after what 3 years now of LOI cricket his highest score is 28...

Get Amir back in the side Misbah he'd be more of an all-rounder than this guy lmao. I honestly don't even understand why Amir isn't in the side he's the best T20 bowler in the country, is selection not based on merit anymore?
 
Pak T20 team does not need an allrounder. There are already Shadab, Imad, and Wahab. We need proper spinners like Usman and Zafar, and they can bat as well as Fahim if not better.
 
Can Zimbabwe will themselves over 150?

Probably not since Wahab is bowling the final over.

Amir’s body is failing him. I believe Amir had a behind the scenes discussion with Misbah about being rested for Zimbabwe. He will be back soon if he recovers form (he didn’t have form in domestic cricket over the last two months).

His next match is in the PSL for Karachi against Multan, will be playing at least 2 knockouts and possibly 3. Let’s see if he has been resting his body well and is back up on pace.
 
Zimbabwe trolling us all by winning the toss and batting first.

His body has been damaged with all the years of abuse of drugs and thats why he's yet so skinny and hasn't got any muscle or stamina to bowl spells.

What we really need and say what you want about Afridi but man we really need someone who can come in and just launch from ball 1 like he used to.

I honestly would much rather have Shahid Afridi over Shadab Khan. (Not saying right now as Afridi is retired but I'm just speaking hypothetically) I'd much rather take a number 7 who averages 18 @ 150 and can hit with ease than someone who averages 14 @ 125 and has to heave and ho to just get the ball over the infield. Plus Afridi was a better bowler as well. For all the hate Afridi he got he'd be pretty useful in the side right now.

Yeah he was always a little too lean as far as fast bowlers are concerned, however, I believe he's just a bit rusty as he's barely played any cricket this year. He's only 28 so I would have got him in the side for the T20I's at least to get him back into some form.
 
How are we struggling against Zimbabwe? If this was India they would have been rolled over them by now
 
Madhevere has played a great innings to propel Zimbabwe over 150, now let's chase this down in 15 overs please.
 
Funny how everyone criticises Rauf but no criticism for anyone else even though they’ve done worse in this game 🤔
