[REPORTS] Sarfaraz Ahmed assigned to oversee matters regarding the Pakistan Shaheens and the Pakistan Under-19 teams [Update@ Post#73]

Excuse me? Where has he shown any bitterness?
“Sarfaraz Ahmed has once again proved that he is not only a great captain but also an honest man.
‎According to Rashid Latif, when the Pakistan Shaheens squad for the Emerging Asia Cup was being finalized, Sarfaraz Ahmed was part of the selection committee. Initially, it was decided that Misbah-ul-Haq’s son, Faham-ul-Haq, would be included in the team. But Sarfaraz insisted that the spot rightfully belonged to Maaz Sadaqat.
‎He said, “I agree that Faham is a good kid and Misbah’s son, but if you want to select on merit, then Maaz Sadaqat must be chosen.” And Sarfaraz was proven right — Maaz Sadaqat justified his selection by playing a brilliant innings against India.”


You can understand why he is showing bitterness.
 
How has he injected Karachi politics into Pakistan cricket?
Someone selecting the likes of Anwar Ali in national team, making QG a karachi club and post stories of himself whenever something happens related to other keeprs shows the guy is full himself and injects karachi politics...

Unbelievable! At the back of my mind I knew it was something to do with Misbah!

So predictable
 
I like Sarfraz and its shame that Riz has no competition and will also fall away. On the other hand we have a genuine guy that went through the system and knows where the flaws in player development
 
U19 World Cup winner. Champions trophy winner. Rid us of the Akmal cancer that was the worst thing to happen to pakistan cricket.

Fell off towards the end of his career but so good to see him involved with the youth.

CT17 win was the best memory as a pakistan cricket fan of the last 20 years.
 
People forget where Pakistan White ball cricket was post 2015 World Cup, where the only memorable element of that time was an ultimately fruitless Wahab Riaz spell that marked up Shane Watson a bit.

Sarfaraz slowly built up that white ball side by grooming Hasan Ali, Shadab, Babar, Shaheen, making them mainstays, whilst also introducing Fakhar, reintroducing Amir and bedding in Imad into that side.

He’s good at developing players and being a big brother to younger players. People think his captaincy style will be analogous to his coaching style without much proof.

People who’ve played under him have never had a bad word to say about him, and in a volatile free-for-all environment like Pakistan cricket, that’s very rare.

Thus I have trust that InshAllah Sarfi will succeed in developing these boys, because that’s ultimately what his job is.

It’ll be great if he can win u19 trophies, but the ultimate goal is to give the senior setup a stock of future potential talented options to choose from.
