[endymion248]

There are so many batting talents. All are not world class but we will only know the answer when they are played.

If Usman Salhuddin or Haris Sohail were played, we would know where they stand and would be giving a chance to Waheed now.

 

[IAJ]

Jamal Anwar in now. Dangerous player

 

[IAJ]

Come on Waheed. Need a boundary here.

 

[IAJ]

Umar Waheed dropped, lucky

 

[endymion248]

[shah_1]

Another brainfart need to take single instead of blind slog

4 req of 1 bal....

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Another brainfart need to take single instead of blind slog


Should have targeted Super over

should have given strike to inform Waheed....

 

[IAJ]

Need a lucky 4.

They should have taken two instead of singles and Umar would have been back on strike.

 

[IAJ]

Come on, paddle sweep here

 

[IAJ]

Bowled him!

SS in fina! Poor Umar Waheed.

 

[Black Zero]

Imran Nazir's "V" won us the match.

 

[GreenKnightRises]

... stallions win.

 

[Boi]

FFS Rams' captain cost them the game here. No way he should've promoted himself above Hammad.

 

[Couch Cricketer]

both the unbeaten teams in group stage are out

 

[IAJ]

Looked like a no ball

 

[GreenKnightRises]

wait.. there..They are checking for the NO-BALL

 

[speed]

Umar waheed almost won the match but he made a mistake in taking the single anyway he's only 19 and will learn from this.

 

[Black Zero]

Bowled him!

SS in fina! Poor Umar Waheed.

You need to control the game...
He does not have the 4th gear...which is must for a match winner...

 

[GreenKnightRises]

.. two bad teams in Final.

 

[endymion248]

SS failed due to poor fielding...

About why one shouldn't try to find excuses before the match is over

 

[speed]

You need to control the game...
He does not have the 4th gear...which is must for a match winner...

Needs to add some muscle so he can clear the rope.

 

[endymion248]

I hope we are not invited to Champions League, we will only be embarrassed unless Haris Sohail and Raza step up.

 

[Black Zero]

Umar waheed almost won the match but he made a mistake in taking the single anyway he's only 19 and will learn from this.

He is good, but if you see, he is good for single/doubles...

he can't hit out,...

 

[samiakh]

Hammad run out key, that was silly.

 

[endymion248]

You need to control the game...
He does not have the 4th gear...which is must for a match winner...

He wouldn't need to be a match winner if played at 3 to anchor an inning.

 

[cricketworm]

Malik is undoubtedly best T20 captain in Pak. domestic for sure.

 

[ahmed16]

.. two bad teams in Final.

I think Sialkot is a good team, there past record suggests they know this format quite well

 

[speed]

SS are missing their 2 best batsman yet still make the final.

 

[Black Zero]

About why one shouldn't try to find excuses before the match is over

SS won this tournament gazallion time...

They always been the best fielding side ...but in this match...their fielding was ..like other teams...

on good side, Rana performed after 3 years..

 

[Black Zero]

Malik is undoubtedly best T20 captain in Pak. domestic for sure.

he got the best W/L in international T20I

 

[cricketworm]

he got the best W/L in international T20I

He didn't captain in any of the T20 WC, if I am not mistaking. There might be doubt about international T20 because not a big sample size, but for this domestic tourny., there is no doubt. Underrated captain in my opinion. Shrewd personality.

 

[mastermind_quad]

4 in last ball ...wow it is same as in first semi final...it is fix ..

He captained in the 2007 WC

 

[mastermind_quad]

4 req in last ball ...wow it is same as in first semi final...it is fix ..

And 3 wickets in last over one is run out ....what a coincidence

 

[Muhammad Saad]

Poor captaincy and wrong batting order cost Rams the game.

 

[mastermind_quad]

If I am not wrong Stallions have one of the best young players in Domestic circuit.

Harris Sohail
Umar Waheed
Raza Hasan

you are mistaken.

He took us to the final of T20I WC (2007) ,,

Misbah chocked vs India.

Harris Sohail
Umar Waheed

Umer waheed... plays for Rawal Pindi

 

[GreenKnightRises]

I think Sialkot is a good team, there past record suggests they know this format quite well

Yup.. But they are lacking Slogger Nazir and Harris Sohail... ..i would have been happy if those two were playing...

 

[mastermind_quad]

Umer waheed... plays for Rawal Pindi

Oops ....but he played a gem of an Inning under pressure. Win and Loss is part of the game.

He is one for the future.

Malik is undoubtedly best T20 captain in Pak. domestic for sure.

No, it's Misbah by far. Faisalbad Wolves mostly have an average side, weakened even more so due to absence of Saeed and departure of Hafeez BUT he still takes his side to the finals at least.


Stallions always have a quality side, only this time they are not at their full strength due to the exclusion of Imran Nazir and Haris Sohail. BUT beating Lahore Lions, who were overwhelming favourites, and that too by defending a very low total shows real credentials of Misbah's captaincy.


I think our ODI team is struggling primarily due to poor selections not because of Misbah's captaincy. Misbah though certainly needs to improve his tactics on the field as well.

The guy has won some 8 or 9 tourneys, with or without the likes of Imran and Rana...

Learn to give credit where its due, the guy knows how to lead a young side

And as for Misbah, he had the likes of hafeez (until recently), naveed latif, saeed ajmal and salman ahmad (keeper), mohammad talha,and shahid nazir... so he cant complain much, but he still has done a decent job too
