I am not taking about runs and ultimately his runs did help us win. He showed a lot more application and disciple which is encouraging and an improvement
There is a massive problem Pakistan shoving the same 11 into every format. There is a thing as having format specialists. Ifti might be a short term solution as an off spin bowling all rounder in t20’s but salman def does not need to replace him in t20’s. Perhaps salman can be useful in Odis.
There's no reason to. He has been batting superb with the tail. Let him play. Pakistan needs a player like him below in tough situations. Moreover I believe with his technique against pace he will find it tough up top.
He has been the best player for Pakistan, especially in red-ball format.
Wth Rizwan was 7th a couple of weeks ago???
A one to one meeting with the vice captain lol
Same old drama by Naqvi again. What was the need of having a photo taken of this confidential meeting.
Salman Ali Agha while addressing the press conference today:
Ahem Ahem useless allrounder ain't Agha also from that category, atrocious when playing pace
Give me a list of players in Pakistan who are complete – those who can handle spin, pace, bounce, and everything else.
This is where your thinking’s off.
Stopped reading at Asif Ali, thank you very much yes cricket is a team game people should understand, what if the hitters fail on the given day , mostly it is with Pakistan hitters
No point replying if your not going to read the post fully carry on cheer leading rizwan and babar
T20 is not his format. In Test he has shown guts. Even in Australia Test he showed fight and scored 50s when everyone else was being pathetic with the bat - players with better technique
An average of 45 across 17 tests is impressive for a lower-order batsman, especially with 3 centuries and 9 fifties to their name.
Before him we had Asad Shafiq. Who averages 38 in Test Cricket. Salman players much more positively than he ever did.
He is not soft he is the reason pak is back in test cricket name on batter who is as good as agha down the order vs spin even so called great like joe root looked clueless on those spinning pitches.
English players were never good against spin, the fact you guys came to know after ages. As far as Agha is concerned, he is just an okay player.
Well you think its some kind of joke to prepare spin tracks ask aqib javed who put all the hard yards to prepare spin tracks it takes some doing and it was not easy dropping your best players likes of shaheen naseem babar it played with their egos.
Then pak should have some training from indian curators how to prepare these kind of tracks regularly.
Conditions are not alien in Pakistan as compared to India.
He won you test series vs england with his down the order runs with tail put some respect on his calibre.
He is an spin all rounder option he can get you wickets with his handy off spin like we have seen in odis and got mature head.
u took my words.. he himself is a big unjustice to Pakistan cricket lol
Why didn’t you post something like this for Ifthikhar ???If destroying a player reputation is an art, then PCB and management is the biggest clown board ever you can witness.
perfect replacement of Babar Azam
bhai he is not in the team anymore... uski jaan chordo ab!
Ironically his replacement in T20Is is going to be Saud Shakeel for some. Lol
None of the captaincy candidates are t20 material and that's a fact.
Shaheen was the best choice for T20I to captain and in WT2024. In the meanwhile they could've groomed either Saim or Harris with them as captain for future.
