Malik had a very successful tour on England in 2010.
Malik is much better batsman than Younis Khan.
Malik is much better batsman than Mohammad Yousuf.

My word. Surely no sane human being can ever write this. I am so distraught that I can't even use smileys in this post.
 
I see a few possible scenarios:

*Malik has presented Black Zero with a healthy paycheck, with the sole aim of rectifying the negativity surrounding his name on PakPassion. Oh how he yearns for a bit of praise!

*Malik has perfected mind control and now holds Black Zero between his fingers, so to speak.

*Malik managed to outmuscle Black Zero and now holds him hostage, forcibly overseeing his posting direction!

*Sania Mirza managed to outmuscle Black Zero and now holds him hostage, forcibly overseeing his posting direction! :O


(Delusion and trolling come to mind as well, but I thought I'd list the more likely possibilities first) :P

P.S: Let this serve as an introduction between us Black Zero.

I can't believe that either. Good thing I didn't read through 90 pages of this.

Whenever this thread is bumped, I have the same reaction every time. There's a Malik Support thread?
 
my goodness how did this thread go 90 pages??? this isnt fanboyism not love, this is a really creepy disturbing form of devotion.

the apocalypse is indeed upon us. the devil walks the earth. :16:
 
I have said NO, Malik should not have been selected

But now he's there, and I always used to like him before he lost all form and became a tail ender. So I guess it's time to support him now... the squad is selected, and Hafeez has shown his willingness to accommodate him in the line-up. Alright Malik, can you revive your LOI career? THIS IS THE TIME TO STAND UP!
 
well captain changed his batting position..

So let me get this straight.......

According to you, Malik was going to score 40 in last T20.
Hafeez changed his batting position....and he got out with a 3-ball duck?

Two questions:
1) Your Bradman could not handle a minor change in batting order?
You are the one who complained and whined about Misbah sending him too late in Zimbabwe (at #5 and #6). But now you are whining about him coming at #4?

Then you whined him being sent too-low!
http://www.pakpassion.net/ppforum/showpost.php?p=4600425&postcount=90
I have no idea why they put him so low.

You can never make up your mind... can you?


2) When Malik was captain himself... he changed his own batting position. Did you whine then also?
 
One of the greater negatives of Pakistan cricket. The fact that after so many chances, this guy is still allowed anywhere near the international team, let alone be part of it, is baffling. He brings absolutely no value to the side. He has no role. It's time for him to be pointed towards the door.

He'll make sure it's a revolving one
 
But but but but but but ...............that was Misbah's fault!!! :P

Just like it was Hafeez's fault that Malik got a 3-ball duck in last T20! ;-)

Can we get BZ to list his excuses before the world cup starts?

Saves me opening the thread during the tournament.

The scenarios are most likely going to be:

1. Malik scratches around, wastes deliveries and the gets out cheaply, probably costing us the match.

- BZ you can use Sohail's argument that it was the management's fault for not letting him get enough batting practice.

2. Malik bowls an over and gets smashed

- My suggestion, use the accident from ten years ago

3. Malik has a shocker in the field

- Blame Sana for sapping his energy the night before
 
I am ready to bet my life that make him captain and he will get you the WC...

can you bet the same for Hafeez?

I am sure the whole forum is so glad that you did not bet your life over him scoring a 40 in last T20 vs Australia............... as you said he would? ;-)
 
He is captaining SS in CL..... so how are you going to kill yourself if he does not win the cup? :P

Yes SS would win CL (cond: no interference from PCB to SS's matters)
So this question is for you haters...why are you guys still alive after SS winning championship after championship after championship...?

Should not you guys...take some motivation from:

Are you saying if Malik is captain of Pakistan team then there will be no interference from PCB.....and you are willing to bet your life on him winning the wc?? Hellllllloooooooooooooooooooo!!!!! :)))
 
Personally speaking, I believe we have more chance of winning the WC under Malik than Hafeez. I hope someday Malik becomes captain again :malik

Bet your Pakpassion posting life on Malik scoring an international 40, in the opening game of the T20WC.

So you think Malik is a better batsman than Mohammad Yousuf, eh? :yk
 
Malik is one of our best T20 players.... He is not being used in the right position.

He is excellent in the MIDDLE overs... rotating the strike against spinners.


Line-up should be...


Jamshed
Kami
Umar Akmal
Malik
Shafiq
Razzaq
Afridi
Hafeez
Gul
Tanvir/Riaz/?
Ajmal


The first 4 in the line-up should be fixed. (no matter what)

The rest change depending on what the situation is when we are 3 down.

So, let's say Malik would have come in at number 7 in the match against the Aussies, it still wouldn't have been the middle overs. One must be able to play the new ball!

He can.

He needs to have a settled role in the side.
 
@W63L35 Bro why are you wasting your time arguing with a troll. He will shoot down each and every one of your arguments with dumber arguments of his own.

"Never argue with an idiot; they'll drag you down to their level, and beat you with experience."

Don't you think, I know he is just trolling! :) In fact a few months ago, a lot of people accused him of being Malik-hater of the highest class because he supports Malik on purpose in this "stupid" way..... so that he can "enjoy" PPers bashing Malik. I mean, if you are a true fan, would you want people to say anything bad about your favorite player?? Why can't he keep quite ..... so that people don't bash Malik???

I reply to him for two reasons:

a) So that he keeps reaching the next levels of highlighted words above..... and see how low he can go!

b) All of us come here for entrainment. My answers to his posts;
....provide entrainment to other posters....
....provide entrainment to him.... because he "thinks" he has succeeded in trolling me....
....provide entrainment to me...when poople like you call him what you just called him... :P

but..... shhhhhhhh .. don't tell him that!

I assume that you joined PP in 2012 so you might not know that WL actually had malik in his fantasy team when he needed some extra points...


so in reality he believes in malik.

So.... when was the last time YOU played fantasy cricket....if including Malik in your fantasy team mean "believing in Malik"???? ;-)

Up for challenge in this T20 WC? If you play in the fantasy cricket by making Malik captain of your team and beat my team... I'll donate $50 to PakPassion.... but if you lose, you'll donate $25 to PakPassion? Deal?
 
This proves that if malik does not perform, pakistan will lose.

So why does NOT perform specially in last three years? Even a lot of tailenders have batted better than him??? Does he fix the matches and gets out purposely so that Pakistan can lose??

You did not notice the stats I mentioned were "as captain" and maybe you do not know, Malik hasn't captained Pakistan for years now.

So your complaint is not justified.

Point for you is:

MA Ouma vs Malik

Is MA Ouma the current Captain of Pakistan? or even playing for Pakistan...or even Pakistani?

Hafeez got W/L of 1, while malik got 3 (some would argue even more, as couple of matches that he lost..when he was a substitute captain...after our captain caught biting a ball.


Didnt pakistan play a set of minnows when he was: captain :fawad ... That win, loss ratio is mis leading.

Even against major teams, Malik >> Hafeez

plus, my other stat is vs major teams, ...and you can see the difference.

where is the post where bz stated that malik is better than bradman lol?

Do not wait for anyone to provide that post as I never claimed it.

Personally speaking, I believe we have more chance of winning the WC under Malik than Hafeez. I hope someday Malik becomes captain again :malik

Truth...100%
 
What is a settled role???

I dont want to sound facetious...

but what do u think a settled role is?

I mean he should bat at 4 and take us through the middle overs.

He should be given a consistent run of innings in that role.

(ps. I only want him in T20 side.
 
He will..... When he isnt constantly in and out.


he has "been there, done that"

He has done nothing of note with his batting for the past three years. He does not deserve a settled role in the team just like the other passengers of Team Pakistan.

He has an inportant role in T20 side.

he can do things others dont have the capability for
 
I am GLAD Pakistan won.
I am GLAD Malik performed... if he keeps playing like this, he can stay in the team.

But remember this innings came after 3 years.... and in warm up match which means nothing. It won't be included in his records.

Good innings from Malik... lets hope he carries this throughout the tournament
 
Is BZ out partying or what? I thought this thread would be over-run by his comments praising Malik like God.

Played a superb innings today and proved me wrong. However, he did not score an international 40 and this innings will not be counted in his records.
 
This thread just got a three year life-extension today.

Don't worry if BZ or Riff haven't posted yet. They will refer to this day over the next few years.

Glad he came through and supported Kamran Akmal. Wish the Jr. Akmal would have supported his brother, but he seems to be leaning towards the "Sami" end of the talent spectrum.
 
Good innings but this has come after a couple of years of failure, so nothing to get too excited about. He needs to replicate this performance in other matches to justify his place in the team.
 
Eid Mubarak BZ !!
Moon was out in full force today... what a performace !
His one inning alone bumped his 2012 T20 batting average up by 10+ runs too bad it was just a warm up game so his battign avg still remains in single digit.

not a single dot ball

How come cricinfo has not updated Malik's career stats after today's double 100 he scored? ;-) Can you please send them an e-mail....??? better yet, plan a boycott and protest!!! :zaka

Makes you wonder really, when you look at the original poll @ whether malik should have been selected for the 2011 world cup.

Had he played in that tournament, things could have turned out differently for pakistan v India in the semi's. Big mistake on his non selection.
 
Wide balls don't count as deliveries towards the batsmen...

That's correct.
But WL showed the stats of balls of bowlers "faced" by malik...and wides show in that table.

The problem is ... not everybody is good at math and can even count!!! :P

Yes, I agree not everyone is good at math

and some (so called official statisticians, can't even count)

Malik played 18 balls:
