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

[Babeikh]

I'd rather be remembered and known for playing 'tuk tuk' cricket than for selling my integrity because I wanted a little quick buck.

 

[MenInG]

Talk about Sharjeel's game and that's it

You guys turn every thread into some street fight which is boring for other posters

If you dont know how to argue your case, don't bother posting

 

[Kianig89]

So Shaejeel Khan is back in PSL fold, with Hyderabad Kingsmen , Saim and Sharjeel opening and gillespie as coach, expect fireworks.

Yes, he will handle McGrath, Gillespie and Brett Lee like you claimed Babar will

 

[Kianig89]

Bertornato
Sharjeel Khan is in Kingsman squad for PSL XI, so the thread will get actual numbers , looking forward to it

 

[pakistani pride]

He is done. Another waste

 

[Kianig89]

So Game#1 , HHK didn't pick Sharjeel , fans are eagerly waiting for his power show

 

[Cric1234]

So Game#1 , HHK didn't pick Sharjeel , fans are eagerly waiting for his power show

He's only played 4 matches in world T20 but has a strike rate of 143.

 

[Rana]

It’s funny how Rizwan and Babar Daddu fans like to take digs at Sharjeel Khan lol

 

[Kianig89]

Did he came on as Suppa Sub! , even that's worthwhile earlier he use to have butter fingers ,

Sharjeel is fitter than Babar Azam right now

He will probably make a better impact with the bat than Saim Ayub to be fair, that guy cant buy a run these days

I was genuinely hoping he will get a game ,

BUMP
HHK are about to lose another game , a crisis type situation developing at the franchise, with Labuschagne the skipper seems novice to the local conditions. There is no veteran in the franchise like the one from rotten core SSA Shadab or RizBar.

However they have Sharjeel Khan at their disposal , a veteran surely time to give him a go and may be hand over the skipper duties , won't be surprised if he bashes the most of trundles making their ways in PSL.

Highly disappointed with Sharjeel advocates so far ! Not one post in favor of him.

Surely he can come in for either of Saad and Hammad and then bring in Rizwan Mehmood back in.

So who opens Maaz and Sharjeel or Saim and Sharjeel and then one of them goes to 4 as Labu won't go down to 4.

 

[Kianig89]

Saim and Sharjeel to open , Maaz at 3 , Labu can come at 4 or 5 after PPs

 

[Deewana Mastana]

3 lefties back to back not sure Dizzy will go for that

 

[Kianig89]

Ok, but there has to be a way out HHK looked the weakest of the 8 teams

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Like I said in the other thread they need to get rid of a good 5-7 players next year to be considered as a T20 team.

Kusal Parera as an opener is a better bet than Sharjeel.

Also. Only immature owners panic after 2 games. Lahore Qalandars finished bottom for 5 seasons.

 

[Rana]

I find it funny how Youths are desperate now for Sharjeel to be playing, especially when Coke and his regime opened with Rizwan and Babar when both Fakhar and Sharjeel were available and firing.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

The only thing to hand to Sharjeel is that he finally looks slimmer at the ripe age of 38.

Even slimmer than Azam is currently.

 

[RidiculousMan]

Even slimmer than Azam is currently

I mean. Everyone is slimmer than Azam. He's hardly a benchmark

Surely HHKs would not like to finish at bottom for 5 seasons

 

[Deewana Mastana]

True unless Azam has issues which restrict his movements or foods that he just can't give up and build muscle instead.

The thing I see with Azam is that he probably isn't quite invested into cricket as apart from T20 he doesn't play any other format even with T20 he mostly plays PSL and the rest of the year he's just hovering around singing or whatever.

 

[shaz619]

Sharjeel got shafted ahead of Babar & Rizwan when he was in his peak & more of a live dog, he is only being pushed forward now so folk can feel better about the mediocrity of Babar & Rizwan.

Supporting Sharjeel extends beyond whether or not he is in the playing XI or national team,

Sharjeel represents a brand of cricket we’d like to see from Pakistan, fierce, full of intent and taking complete advantage off the PP & making the most of those fast starts till the end.

Saim Ayub is Sharjeel, Fakhar Zaman is Sharjeel, Mo. Harris is Sharjeel, Yasir Khan is Sharjeel, Khwaja Nafay & Nawaz are Sharjeel,

All those who advocate for modern cricket & intent, WE ARE ALL SHARJEEL!

What part of that can’t you get through your thick skulls?

Sharjeel got relevant again , playing for HHK much needed for PSL after all the bad news and events in recent days

Irrelevant. Maaz Sadaqat is your guy!

 

[Savak]

Sharjeel should be opening the innings. Saim Ayub should drop down.

 

[Kianig89]

Beastly 50 by Sharjeel , good that HHK mgmt got their sense back and included him , was pushing for him since the start of PSL

National comeback on?

Pakistan need middle order batters.

At 36 no chance

 

[Kianig89]

Form Legends league to HKG sixes to T10 leagues, Sharjeel back in PSL with a bang! , surely that needs a short documentary ala Sahibzada type

 

[Sachin fan]

How many big hitters did Pakistan sacrifice over the years for the Rizbar type of stat padding play? All other teams invested in big hitters and progressed in t20s, while Pakistan just went for stat padders and never gave hitters a long run. And now they are behind other teams by 20 years

Started from the bottom, now he's here!

 

[RidiculousMan]

Good fit in middle order for Hyderabad. He was finished as an opener in PSL 3-4 years ago

 

[JattMaula]

Good fit in middle order for Hyderabad.

And Pakistan.

 

[chinaman00]

And Pakistan.

No, thank you. There’s no reason to include a convicted fixer in the side.

There is plenty of precedent. Pakistanis have bigger hearts than ours. Forgiveness comes easy to them.

That’s why Pakistan cricket is in the condition it’s.

@Kianig89

Bhonk!

 

[Suleiman]

He’s being batted at 5?!!

Such disrespect to a modern day swashbuckler and trailblazer who put not only Pakistani LOI batting but also its test batting back on the mf’in map!!

Even though Misbah once again was afraid to pull the trigger, Sharjeel stick cut through the Aussie test attack in Australia like a butter knife, and smacked them into being humble in the LOIs as well in 2016.

Sad what happened to him greed wise, but the past is the past.

He’s lost weight and should not be batting lower than 2. Whoever did this disrespect needs to be named, shamed and given silent treatment.

Pak as usual needlessly demoting openers.

History will forget whichever weak captain or manager that did this while Sharjeel will be remembered as the Thunder Down Under!

 

[Rana]

I was genuinely hoping he will get a game ,

Now I will genuinely make you regret this.

 

[RyanRyan10]

He's only played 4 matches in world T20 but has a strike rate of 143.

That too in 2016 when scoring used to be lower

Ahmed Shehzad ruined hid efforts in that tournament

 

[Kianig89]

Good performance by Sharjeel, sadly at international cricket the shop might be shut for him , but at PSL he definitely has what takes it , hopefully he will continue his form.

I'm supporting him for this PSL even when his most ardent fans had given up , but its not everyone's cup of tea to back a player when he is completely out of picture.
