[PICTURE] Pakistan tour of Bangladesh (2026)

Haseebullah has 9 centuries at a 45 average. Ghazi Ghauri has one fifty and averages 20. On what basis exactly was Haseebullah dropped while someone in management believes Ghazi is the better talent? Pure judgment?

Saad Masood has aone List A wicket after three games. What performance are we evaluating there?

Shamyl Hussain has one List A season.Maaz has two seasons. That is barely a sample.

Meanwhile the players who actually have 50+ List A games, years of performance, and are around 26 or 27+ are nowhere near the discussion.

And this is the cycle Pakistan keeps repeating.

In a system like ours where bias, connections, and “eye test” opinions dominate, data should not be optional. It should be the minimum requirement. Performance in at least 3 seasons should be non negotiable before selection.

Looks like they split up the tour into 3 parts.

Pakistan already played the T20 series last year. They are playing the ODI series now. They are scheduled to play the Test series in May.
 
Dhaka is much better to visit than Indian cities. :inti

In Dhaka, people are friendlier, foods are much better, no hindu extremist group like bajrang dal, much less scammers, much less rapists etc.

As a matter of fact, whole of subcontinent are better places to visit than India. :dav
What happens when you skip geography.

Apparently misbah has some issues with this guy... As per Ahmed Shahzad... This is pure injustice that Ghazai ghouri was selected who has nothing to show as far as performance is concerned.. Money talks i guess.
 
Akbar Ali is a must in ODI’s.

Jishan? No, still raw. Should get in t20s side soon.

To put this into context, Akbar Ali averages 28 in List A cricket, 31 in FC cricket and in his last 2 seasons of BPL he had 17/98 and 23/112 (average/strike rate) stats.
