[PICTURES/VIDEOS] A case for Sharjeel Khan: no sense to keep him out of the side

Funny you say that. I turned it on randomly this evening and coincidentally it was Sharjeel batting on 6* off 4. I was praying throughout for him to make a meaningful contribution so that I can rub it in on all Rizwan/Babar fans here.

God listened to my prayers. It was an innings of destiny. Yes he was dropped, but it was all part of destiny of Sharjeel coming through adversity such as scratchy form only to show his true class as a deadly T20 power hitter.

Saim Ayub was boring to watch but I like the fact that he wants to hit lofted strokes and make himself count. This is promising

He was playing regularly 5 years ago. Do you want to bring in irrelevant stats from a different era? Are you telling me he is incapable of going at 140+ today?

He is even worse, we saw it in PSL, don't make your fantasy eleven bro, he is not going to come back.

This was a forgettable PSL for Karachi kings. They are terrible under Babar and were missing the leadership of Imad.

Sharjeel wasn’t to blame as much as Babar was. It was clear as daylight how badly they depended on Sharjeel to make the big impact on the innings the way LQ depended on Fakhar and QG depended on Roy. It can happen, these types of players will fail more often than not.

He’s not going to lose weight. He isn’t inspired to do it and imo there is no point as it will make no difference to him whatsoever. Sohaib Maqsood is fit or slightly unfit and he is still a lazy, casual fielder. These guys will not become Jontys all of a sudden
 
Even if he is brought back he is 33 bad fitness and a poor fielder. He will probably take a year to acclimatise to international cricket again, I don’t think he’ll hit the ground running given his bad international stats over 50 games. So maybe you get one year out of him at best? Doesn’t seem worth it for a fixer with no fitness. You need good fitness to be able to play late 30s. He relies on hand eye coordination and reflexes which will go soon and has no footwork to fall back on.

If you want to analyse his true performance, the highest level he’s played at is at the PSL recently. In 2022 he played 10 games for KK, with an average of 23.1 and a s/r of 130. He had one 50 in the whole tournament. In the national T20, Fakhar bats like a legend as does Ifti. Id like to see a change at the top of the order, but Sharjeel, with his boundary dot dot dot style, is not the solution
Click to expand...

+1 lol at folks getting excited after National T20 performances.
 
Rana said:
His critics after seeing the horror show of Babar and Rizwan in the Asia cup (dot balls and lack of intent) would argue that Sharjeel has fallen off the track and isn’t even performing in the Pakistan cup

Well guess what! He responds the very next day after Rizwan scored his 55 off 47 (chasing 170) with an emphatic 107* off 62 balls in the Pakistan cup!

Once again Sharjeel leads the way by becoming the first centurion of a T20 domestic tournament. His 5th T20 hundred whilst Rizwan has 1 T20 hundred.

Absolute nonsense to keep this man out of the side considering how badly our strategy has been exposed in targeting powerplay overs!

He’s done his time. Misbah and Waqar brought him back into the national side only for Rameez to bring his personal ego into it. This culture of favouritism and personal egos needs to go! The man is all clear and he is a must for the national side!
Click to expand...

Bro.. he was dropped like 5 times in the match - all were each catches that you expect to be taken even at a domestic level. He was lucky to get that hundred.

On top of that, his fitness has gone from bad to worse + He'll be a liable in the field.

That being said, I would also love to see another opener audition for the top order role, as Riz and Babar are not cutting it.
 
Pak have given chances to so many TTF’s in the past. He too deserves a call up. Where was the fitness criteria when Azam khan was picked?
 
For all those who haven't watched his yesterday's innings, he was dropped by Keeper on 18 and by Haris Sohail on 19. Both the catches were easy as dolly.
 
Rana said:
When was he supposed to be reliable? He bats at a 140-160 strike rate. Who is reliable batting at this rate???
Click to expand...

He will fail to put an impact 9 out 10 times. He will be another Asif Ali. I would have agreed with you if you had said the same thing 5 years ago. Thanks but no thanks.
 
The difference between Asif Ali and Sharjeel is that Sharjeel can play an innings whereas Asif can do no more than a cameo at best.

We either have accumulators that can bat long or hitters that don’t last very long.

What we are missing is someone who can hit and play an innings
 
Maliq_Mudasir said:
Yes, dropped on 18, 19 and 60. And people want him to be in WC squad.
Click to expand...

People wanted him to be in the squad ever since his ban was overturned and he showed his old ability to play attacking powerplay cricket

He was in bad form, he needed luck and he had some yesterday. Kohli was in terrible form going into the Asia cup and he needed that luck being dropped on nought against Naseem Shah
 
Pakistanis indeed have big hearts. Just like their fielders give key batsmen second chances, their fans and board give spot and match fixers second chances time and time again.
 
He's a must for Pakistan T20Is.

A rare modern-day player in the country. Hits them clean and easily anything on good length/short. Too full, he hits in the V.

Those saying he's been banned for spot-fixing, so was M Nawaz. Its another thing that Nawaz was banned for a shorter period hence Ramiz perhaps even doesn't know that he was banned.
 
It would be a major fall from grace for Ramiz Raja if they call him back after he had categorically said there is no room for fixers

This is Pakistan cricket board

Not Rameez Raja cricket board. The previous chairman allowed him to come back when Imran Khan was prime minister
 
Fatty will cost us more runs in the field then he will ever make of his bat. Also probably will fix a few matches along the way. No thanks
 
Gayle_Force said:

Sharjeels century highlights so people can see and make their minds. At least three sitters dropped and number runs from outside and inside edge. Let’s not even comment on fitness.

Rana thinks he’s the best thing to happen. So many dropped catches, outside edges, inside edges. This is nothing more than a fluke

He was scratchy for his first 15-20 runs. That can happen as he wasn’t playing for himself and wasn’t in great Nick

Once he was in, the bowlers had no chance
 
Some of his shots were exemplary, especially against Yasir Shah. And people said he's weak against spin.

Our national team players can only dream of playing such shots.

And for those crying for fitness, he had cleared Yoyo test benchmark of Pakistan national team back in 2020 (which is higher than the Indian benchmark). If he can again clear that test, there's no reason to deny him a national team place in place of embarrassment that are Iftikhar and Khushdil.
 
I would just say this as a last thing. The fact that people are pushing for Sharjeel after one innings in National T20 in which he was dropped multiple times (Not to mention the fact that the guy requires 4XL clothing) summarizes one of the key issues with Pakistan cricket.

A very similar innings to Rizwan today

I am not a Rizwan fan boy, and I am the first one to blame him for the final's loss.

However, what Rizwan has achieved in the past 1/2 years in this format is something Sharjeel won't even think about in his wildest dreams.

That heavyweight wrestler will certainly leak more runs in the field than the runs he will score in his short 8-10 balls stay.

Brother I used to be a Sharjeel fan but he has clearly regressed since his ban. Century is always good but he was dropped THREE times in that innings. 3 easy chances.

International teams won't give him these 3 chances. He would've departed for 17 if he wasn't dropped.
 
Let him rot in domestics, poor fitness, fielder , lazy attitude towards the game + fixing issue. He should be happy that he is playing domestics

Once in a blue moon innings with so many dropped chances lol , no consistency and he has lost his power hitting post fixing , Sami Ayyub is the one who usually takes the charge of power hitting in PP and this guy just hangs around waiting for the bad ball, his SR post fixing has gone down so much.

imo he is not in contention for national selection and shouldn’t be so.
 
His dismissal today showed us how his technique will be exposed against good attacks
 
Sharjeel Khan

Bewal Express said:
"Pakistan’s banned Test batsman Sharjeel Khan has accepted all five charges imposed on him by the Anti-Corruption Tribunal of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) as he targets an early comeback to domestic cricket.

Khan is serving a five-year ban, half of which is suspended, for his role in spot-fixing scandal during the Pakistan Super League (PSL) in February 2017.

Sharjeel was set up by Sethi and his cronies and made to say yes despite no evidence to the contrary to save his career.

Initially he said he was not involved but was forced to comply.

Saim Ayub has outscored your boy by 100 runs and has a 20% better strike rate as well yet Saim Ayub is boring to watch according to you. Think you are making a case for the wrong guy here. By all accounts Saim Ayub deserves a chance before we even start talking about Sharjeel.
 
He is a big presence on the field, literally and psychologically

Big Tasty is here to stay. He is the biggest draw in this Pakistan cup with all the national stars away.
 
Sharjeel Khan in the ongoing National T20 Cup

Played 11 innings.
1) 24 off 19
2) 8 off 4
3) 7 off 9
4) 12 off 10
5) 9 off 14
6) 49 off 26
7) 18 off 13
8) 107 off 62
9) 17 off 16
10) 13 off 19
11) 11 off 9

An average of 27.5 at a SR of 137.

Only 2 innings worthy of note in 11 innings. You take his century out which was a complete fluke given 3 dolly chances dropped, his Strike Rate is a monstrous 121 in this tournament.

Since the clamour is so much that he brings firepower in the PowerPlay, his Powerplay SR is a colossal 133 and if you remove his flukey 100 innings, his SR is 123.

Even if you include his century, he's averaging just 27.5 with a SR of 137. Mohammad Rizwan as opener averages 65 at a SR of 132. Only a fool would take Sharjeel over Rizwan. And mind you we are comparing a batsman who is struggling to dominate domestic trundlers vs a guy who is playing against international teams.

But never let facts come in the way of a spot-fixer getting his PR.

Saim Ayub on the other hand is averaging 35 at a SR of 156. But Sharjeel is the flavor.
 
The way sharjeel bats as if he’s a tailender promoted to bat up the order. The other day he played a maiden first up and today Amir Yamin showed us what calibre of a batsmen he is. His fielding is worse then 5th 11 club cricket.

Sharjeel is garbage. Always was and always will be. He was in and out of the team from 2013 to 2017 and at no point did he perform consistently. His failure rate against good bowling attacks was and remains high.

In addition, his pathetic fitness and fielding means that he is going to cost at least 15-20 runs in the field.

He is obese, a fixer and an average player. I can’t think of a more unlikable Pakistani cricketer of this generation and I question the sanity of his supporters.

A nothing player and I’m glad that he will never play for Pakistan again.

Thanks for busting the bubble of Sharjeel fan boys.

His strike rate as an opener in the current National T20 Cup is barely better than Rizwan and Babar, without the consistency of those 2 and a complete burden on the field.

But yes, he can fluke 1 or 2 sixes every 10th innings, let's select him for the World Cup.
 
He is an absolutely terrible player.He averages 22 in t20is and his strike rate is only 132.

He can't play pace bowling. He has awful technique. His feets don't move he can't even play 135 ks bowler.

I really hope he never gets selected.
 
On second thought, I wish the selectors would have given him a chance so that his deluded cult-followers would zip it for once.

When he would have inevitably failed, his fans would have made the following excuses:

1. PCB destroyed his confidence by ignoring him all these years
2. The management destroyed his confidence by giving him the impression that he will be dropped if he fails in the WT20 so he played with insecurity
3. He threw his wicket away because his opening partner Babar/Rizwan played selfishly so he had to take risks

Please feel free to add more excuses.

Give him his chance and live to regret it. Go ahead Mamoon. Won’t be the first time you would have egg on your face in regards to a Pakistani player.
 
A lazy and corrupt opening batsman. That's exactly what young guys like Naseem, Shaheen need for mentorship. While we're at it, let's bring over Lance Armstrong to be a motivational speaker. :facepalm


Bringing back Sharjeel isn't just about cricket. It's about the corruption mindset that's taken a hold of the country. We've so used to corruption that we don't even want to acknowledge it. I'd rather lose by playing Rizwan than sell out the Green Shirt.

Sorry KPK fans but this Panauti statement proved detrimental for you guys today. A champion knock by a great opener!
 
If we are looking at top order batters who did well in the National T20 Cup:

Saim Ayub scored more runs, hit more 6s, hit more 4s, had a better average and a better strike-rate than Sharjeel Khan.

If you want to take a risk, go for Saim.

If you want someone who is a bit more assured and experienced, it’s a no brainer and it has to be Sharjeel. He loves pace and bounce, the kind Cummins, Stark, Hazlewood etc will serve you on those tracks.

Saim is like Wayne Rooney going to the 2004 Euro cup if he gets the nod somehow
 
Hopefully KK release Sharjeel and he is snapped up by QG or wherever Saim is playing.

Saim will be so good as long as he has a beast, big brother opener like Sharjeel with him. Conservative openers will only put more pressure on him and he will take more than necessary risks

You keep bringing up Sharjeel and the only thing of note he did recently was the 102 (62) in a domestic game in which he was dropped 3 times. Babar has already bettered that with a flawless 110 (66) against a quality England side

Iftikhar and Shan were selected on the back of strong and consistent domestic performances but look at how they struggle in international cricket.

In comparison Sharjeel couldn't even bash Rahat Ali and Sohail Tanvir. How anyone comes to the conclusion he's going to feed off Cummins and Starc is just....beyond anyone with a cricketing brain really.
 
Sharjeel has only himself to blame for his pathetic fitness. Even Wasim Akram who has had to frequently deal with him at Karachi Kings frequently bashes him in interviews for his fitness which tells you that the problem is Sharjeel himself who is not willing to pay the price in the gym and kitchen.

Should not be selected for any team for having such pathetic fitness.

It makes no sense logically as both Babar and Rizwan have a strike rate of 140+ at a 70+ avg each in this England series which is higher than Sharjeel’s strike rate of 138 at 29.8 average in the National T20. I do give [MENTION=2016]Rana[/MENTION] credit for backing his player even though it makes zero cricketing sense.
 
Dumbfounded that Sharjeel Khan was not selected as an opener in this T20 team

Pakistan made a huge mistake by not selecting Sharjeel Khan as an opener in this T20 team. He is exactly the T20 opener Pakistan need to give a jumpstart to the start of Pakistan's inning. It does not make sense that Pakistan has a solution of their opening woes but they did not apply it.
 
If the ball was replaced with a watermelon, Sharjeel would've still struggled to lay a hand on it today. And saying that a watermelon could evade Sharjeel is saying something.

Considering his fitness the PCB medical team was seriously worried the guy might suffer from a cardiac arrest during the game. He looks like a standard chacha suffering from cholesterol and diabetes! Allowing him enough rest ensures that Sharjeel plays active cricket into his 60s!
