Faheem Ashraf - 6.5/10 did his job as a bowling all rounder with bonus runs in the first innings

Yasir Shah - 1/10 flopped

Shaheen Afridi - 7/10 did well and unlucky to not pick up more wickets,

Naseem Shah - 4.5/10 blunt spearhead

Mohammad Abbas - 3/10 blunter

 

[Rana]

Naseem Shah was more involved and emotionally invested in this game than 80% of the team.

Fawad
Rizwan
Faheem
Shaheen
Naseem
Abbas

the rest can all be dropped for all I care

Shan Masood: 0/10
Abid Ali: 0/10
Azhar Ali: 0/10
Haris Sohail: 0/10
Fawad Alam: 7/10
Mohammad Rizwan: 9.5/10
Faheem Ashraf: 7/10
Yasir Shah: 0/10
Shaheen Afridi: 7/10
Naseem Shah: 2/10
Mohammad Abbas: 3/10

So basically, Pakistan carried 5 players.

If you look at the NZ team, you’ll see that every player contributed, either with bat, ball or in the field.

It was 11 v 6.

Shan Masood : 0/10
Terrible showing. No real impact & he dropped catches.
Abid Ali : 1/10
Didn’t learn from the first inning. Terrible fielder as well.
Azhar Ali : 1/10
You expect much more from a senior player. He’s starting to lose his reflexes which is costing him now.
Haris Sohail : 0/10
One of the most talented batsmen in the Pakistan team but he lacks concentration and is an average slip fielder.
Fawad Alam : 5/10
Failed in the first inning but put up a century in the second innings. Only reason he gets a 5/10 is because he should’ve carried on more. His runs were soft in the end.
Mohammed Rizwan : 8/10
Couldn’t covert his start into a big score but he captained really well & fought hard. Used his bowlers well and set aggressive fields.
Faheem Ashraf : 8/10
Biggest plus from this test. A player Pakistan has been missing for the last 10 years. He has all the potential to become a great all rounder.
Yasir Shah : 1/10
Terrible bowling and batting. You expect much more from your senior test bowler and someone with a 100 in Australia.
Mohammed Abbas : 4/10
Bowled decently, pace is down considerably. Needs to attack the stumps more and bring Rizwan up to the stumps.
Shaheen Shah Afridi : 7/10
Best Pakistani bowler by a mile. Picked up important wickets upfront in the first innings & showed some great grit in the final overs with the bat.
Naseem Shah : 4/10
Tough test for him bowling wise. Couldn’t get the necessary breakthroughs but he showed insane amounts of maturity & heart with the bat. However, he only makes the team on the backing of his bowling so he needs to improve there & quickly.
