You are doing injustice to me. There is nothing personal against Sarfraz.
But, the guy is failing in an uncompromising area. PAK is ranked 6th/7th in major 2 formats with a clear gap from the top 5 (I know the ODI gap with AUS); therefore it's not expected that the WK will be a 40+ average player and top gloves-man as well - it doesn't happen. Even in a team game, ranking or strength of a team is the sum of individual pieces and WK is probably the most important piece in that block, because it's a must spot in XI.
In recent times, Sarfraz has lots of 10s & 20s - he is getting out after a good time in middle, which indicates it might not be a bad patch, rather lack of capability, it's his batting limit; which is acceptable, because Rizwan isn't reliable either with bat. He is absolutely shocking with gloves, but still that can be acceptable as there is none reliable & tested available. If you read my other post on Sarfraz, I don't mind Sarfraz even with an average of 15-25, if he could do his primary job perfectly. Still I could have avoided writing my thoughts, unless...
..... what isn't acceptable AT ALL is his approach to the game. Being Captain, what example he is setting to younger players - you can get away with diet/fitness if you are senior? You can get away with ugly on-field antics because of being Captain? You can shout to younger players almost to the insulting level because they debuted in the period when your were Captain, as if you own them? I don't want to remind you Hasan incident, which should be an eye opener. Test Captain in commonwealth states is the highest sports honor, almost like a diplomat; British queen used to have a dinner with touring teams at the Palace, with the Captain by her side - this guy smashes stamps at random, foul mouths players, throws gloves/balls, scolds them freely when he is a bot in field!!!!
I give an unpopular example - take Mashrafee. If you see him on field, you should realize what is command and what is setting examples. The guy has at least 10 operations on his knees, there is more metal than bones there; but he is the hardest worker of the team. He doesn't leave the field after opening spell, he doesn't scold his players by their status - from Shakib to Miraz, everyone has got mouthful from him, but every one a pat on back as well. He built a team out of very limited resources and drew respect as well for his on field image.
You said, Sarfraz is building a team, I do know a bit about building a team as well. When one is given Captaincy for 3 squads, for a long term, obviously he'll have some fixed players and some younger ones - that doesn't mean he is the only one building team. I take an example of Misbah, we might criticize him, but he was Captain of PAK for 6 years, and he also did build that Test team, from scratch, starting from the lowest point of PAK Cricket. He himself carried longer, had his own core players - he is duly criticized for that, BUT 6 years back when he was given charge, most of these players were also young and they built the core of Test team which reached No. 1, without being yelled at random, I must say.
I see lots of harsh word for Misbah, I myself being part of it sometimes - because I felt guy should have retired after UK tour and from ODI after 2013 CT. But, he was removed from T20 long back, though he was performing player that time; he was removed from ODI after WC 2015, though he saved PAK from the ultimate disgrace of missing a given QF spot to ZIM. And, till his last day, he commanded his spot in Test squad - was MoS in UK, could have been MoS in WI as well, in his last series.
This is performance as a player, between Misbah & Sarfraz, which still I can give to Sarfraz - PAK doesn't have the options, for a 7th ranked team. BUT, Misbah was an absolute role model on an off the field - the hardest worker among players, the fittest in squad at mid 40s and the most polished PAK captain, probably ever - I haven't ever seen Kardar, but Imran wasn't polished, neither gentleman; he was charismatic, he drew respect and command, but he was extremely competitive, arrogant and too proud to be polished. What precedence Sarfraz is setting for his players or successor?
I see a victim mentality from every Sarfraz fan (almost everyone outside Punjab, more specifically from Karachi), which probably is true - not only cricket, PAK is dominated by Punjabis, and that's not in 2018 only, from 1948 - but that can't be hold against anyone that raises valid questions on Sarfraz.
There is a thick line between fan & fanatic - fan supports players & expect them to perform; fanatics expect everyone to shut up against their players, regardless of whatever and put everything under carpet - that's why they say fanaticism is blind.
