Good to see Malik continuing his great batting record in england, why does this joker keep being selected?
 
The Shoaib Malik 'Support' Thread

Greater than Hashim in ICC tournaments?

Greater than everyone. Who cares if he hasn't played a substantial innings for years, he's still a great player.
 
The Shoaib Malik 'Support' Thread

I hope you caught my sarcastic tone :kapil
 
Baring India, Malik averages 28 with a Strike rate of 74. He has a plus 40 average only against Hong Kong. In last 4 years, baring India, he averages 16 with a strike rate of 65. Even in won games, he averages a pathetic 19.

Inexcusably horrible stats. And he has batted at every position from 2 to 7 still fails. No more comments :zoni

He was very good at number 3, averaged around 40 but was inexcusably dropped down for Younis who himself was a poor ODI player.

But that's the past now and Malik hasn't helped his case either.
 
What will be BZ's excuse today?

Same.... usual ones..... if he ever gives any.....

Everybody else failed too.......
Malik sends him too low down the order........
He had a chipped nail in his pinky.....
Opponent was not India.....
The ground's name started with "O" ... and Malik only scores 300s at the grounds whose names start with "X".

etc etc etc
 
What were you expecting him to do after everyone failed?

Bat 20 overs?

It's Misbah's fault. There weren't enough overs left with Malik batting so low. He has been wasted.

2nd greatest ODI player Pakistan has EVER produced.

Now that we've got that out of the way. How can his selection ahead of U. Akmal, H. Sohail and A. Shehzad be justified?
 
he is married to an indian who wears mini skirts? maybe thats why he keeps getting selected! i'm at a loss at this moment in time!
 
avg of 77+ in won matches since jan 01, 2012

Best for a Pakistani player

http://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/en...al1=span;team=7;template=results;type=batting

Pakistan can NOT win without malik's contribution.

So then why doesn't he contribute in every other game, so that Pakistan can win at least 50 % of matches?

His last couple of innings vs respectable opposition are:

0, 28, 19* , 4, 35 *, 19, 5, 24, 34 *, 23, and 7

Facing Sunil Narine FIRST TIME in his career, team is 5 down, he decides to go down the track first ball ? This is the experience and so called "Best-ness" of 214 ODIs that he's gained? Bakwaas.
 
Malik is still a better player and captain than Imran Khan ...


Oh, i meant a better politician also :moyo

That has been the best run of form he has been in years too.

he just saved pakistan from a demoralizing defeat in previous ODI
He should be batting at #3/4 and no role at #6/7

so its not the responsibility of #6/7 player to save the team all the times...

IF TEAM relies so much on malik to save them then misbah should have given malik a chance to bat in a warm up..

nothing about 77+ avg?

Are you serious? Why should we look at the stats in the won games? how many games have Pak lost when he hasnt scored?

He should be scoring when the team needs it the most. He was required today and he didnt deliver, like many times before this.. you are a unique tool my friend.

you should blame top order for defeats...
 
Be careful, that's opening a pandora's box.

Seriously. Malik is not the worst player representing the countr6y, but people have to realize that he is eating the spot for a younger guy. i.e Hammad, Haris Sohail, Umar Amin or etc.

Its just criminal to keep this below avg guy in the team.
 
showed again how much sufarish he has , Worthless batsmen only knows to play vs india
Insha Allah after this we wont see him in Team i hope
 
Malik is so pathetic, that If I was the head of his family, I would've disowned him unless he stop playing for PCT.
 
Someone please ask Shoaib Malik, is he not embarrassed of his performances?!
 
The few matches that Pakistan won recently (~18 months), all (but couple) because of Malik.

if you want to win more, let him play up at #4 as captain...

we have seen that Hafeez, Azhar, Asad, Amin can't play up...against any half decent attack..

and even Misbah/YK score quadruple century Pakistan will still lose...

(I hope that in ext match he plays for himself ... tuk tuk ...with the SR of 40-50 and go for personal milestones)

Yeah, maybe he can get that average of 7 in England to the Bradman-esque level of 8

1. We beat Afghanistan, with 50's from YK and Farhat but according to you we won because Malik didn't bat.

2. We beat India thanks to an unbeaten century from Nasir and a 50 from YK but according to you it was due to Malik's 34.

3. We beat India again, thanks to another century from Nasir and a 70+ from Hafeez but according to you it was due to Malik scoring 24.

4. We beat South Africa with 10 overs to spare, thanks to our bowlers. Misbah scores an unbeaten 50, Hafeez 31, YK 32 but according to you we won because of Malik's 35.

5. We beat South Africa thanks to Farhat making 93 and Misbah 80 but according to you it was due to Malik's 19.

6. We beat Ireland thanks to Kamran's 81 and Wahab's 47 off 35 but according to you it was due Malik's 43, his highest score in three years.

But I can't forget these two innings:

We beat England in Manchester with the score at 166/9 and Malik smashing an unbeaten 189.

And of course that final in Sharjah against India, where scored a brilliant 116* and ended it by hitting the last ball for 6.

i will just talk about your last point (as its most recent)...
when malik came...match was already lost...
kami and wahab played well and contributed to win...but it was malik's inning that shaped our win.

Oh and his innings did not contribute to our loss yesterday??
The argument that you present is quite pathetic to say the least.The match was not lost at that point.If he had just scored 15-20 odd runs we would have won that match easily considering what happened in the end.
 
Everyone should know that Black Zero is most definitely trolling by now. No point continuing this debate.
 
Haha haters..BZ brother ignore them..BZ remember that match winning 150 against austrailia a few years ago? That was also aftet a mini slump..malik is class..BZ is the only one who knows what he's talking about..

Sensational knock.

Malik made me a believer that day.

I realised after that knock that he actually was our second best ODI player ever.
 
Lol Even a brainless Umar Akmal >>>>>>>>>>>>> Malik

Malik is better than Wahab Riaz, Ajmal and Umar Gul.... in batting. Even Afridi has better Ave, much better S/R and 2 more 100s and 5 more 50s than Malik.......
 
Disagreed.

In a pressure situation Malik might get you about 30% of the target, Akmal would just scoop the ball in the air.

Malik >>> U Akmal

Well in England he averages 7, so hopefully we'll only be chasing 23.

Shows you the dire nature of Pak batting. Yea id still have Malik over Akmal in my team. For the big games atleast. Akmal is a sure choker/misfirer in such situations.
 
Who was the best ever?

I can't remember but BZ keeps telling me he's the 2nd greatest.

I actually can't think of anyone better.

What a legacy Malik has;

Our greatest captain ever.

Our 2nd greatest ODI player.

Soon to average over 50 in Test cricket, by going on a YK-style run-spree.

Our greatest fielder

Our greatest domestic player ever.

Only player in the current team capable of winning a match. Can't remember the last time we won without him.

And many more
 
^^ That was Inzi... for some odd reasons, BZ puts Inzi ahead of Malik..... I mean, why.... ??? If Malik can be better than Miandad, Zaheer, Yousuf, Saleem Malik, Ijaz Ahmed, Saeed Anwar... and Younis.... then why not Inzi?

You forgot....
Malik is better test opener than Hanif.
Malik turned Sialkot Stallions into the BEST EVER domestic side in the history of cricket .... among all countries.

When has Malik ever scored in England?
He averages a paltry 7.53 in 13 innings in ODI. Enough said.
in England 2001-2013 13 13 0 98 24 7.53 209 46.88 0 0 3 6

According to BZ, this was due to him batting so low.

I have to agree, he only batted in the top four in 7 of those innings. Otherwise he would have averaged 70 rather than 7.

In all seriousness how can someone come to such a conclusion. Not even Malik's mother come up with this.
 
Quick question for W65.

Not sure if it's possible but what are the lowest averages in England, and where does Hanif mark II stand?

Just as a comparison.

Murali, the legendary off-spinner but woeful bat, averages 9.75 in England.

And we are playing him as a specialist bat.
 
Farhat, Kamran and Malik should never have been selected

I would have gone with Ahmed Shehzad, Umar Akmal (wk) and Razzaq or Hammad

Test or ODI?

Pakistani or ... all countries?

batting positions 1-7 or including tailenders?

OMG.... I can't believe .... Malik has the LOWEST ODI average in England...

(Qual: 13 or more innings & batting position 1-9)

He is in good company. There are some legendary bowlers in that list.

I wonder who would be left if we took away those with 300+ international wickets.

in the illustrious company of Gough. Marsh and Swann... what can you ask more?... if it was in bowling

Although surprised at Broad's avg as he has a century in Tests.

Sad but true

Malik is crap, but shafiq and farhat are worse

Ideally all 3 should be gone

this is why Malik keeps getting selected..plz log off and never come back..

he's bakwaas. this thread has proven it time and again and his insipid performances are as plain as day!
 
Honestly if Malik is still picked for the game vs SA, then that's quite a disgrace.

Get ready for disgrace then .... Misbah has already said .... "we are not going to panic with one loss and start making changes to the batting order"!
