Pakistani batsmen struggling against slower deliveries in the middle and death overs

[Savak]

PZ were exceptional with the change of pace and slower ball bouncers especially Salman Irshad today. By and large i have observed that most Pakistani batsmen have struggled very badly against the bowlers whenever they have bowled slower ball bouncers or cutters at the death.

The best way i have seen international batsmen play against the slower ball has been instead of trying to muscle and hit the ball as hard as possible, is to loft the ball or scoop, glance the ball behind the wicket for four.

I have repeatedly seen the opposition bowlers strangle our batsmen at the death with the clever use of slower deliveries, slower bouncers over the last 10 years.

Surely by now the NHPC batting coaches should make players practice for these tactics.

Thats because of Tape ball batting germs still somewhere in blood, closed eyes while hitting big shot lol, definately if you dont wait for the ball for hitting,bowler can see your blindless swinging lol, thats why they started missing slower ones, and on top of that when they misses the ball, "Yaar slow maar gya tha" i have heared that many times in stump mic lol Our coaches are clueless to spot this mistake and are not willing to improve this mistake

Yes Asif Ali is classic example

On the flip side it was great execution of last 2 to 3 overs by Zalmi. If it was Hasan ali would have lost the match in one bad over.
