[Asif321]

No Sarfraz Ahmed wow

 

[Asif321]

PAK XI Shahzad,Mukhtar,Hafeez,Malik,Rizwan,Akmal,Afridi,Anwar,Immad,Tanvir and Irfan

 

[Red Devil]

Lol so both Nauman and Zia aren't playing

 

[Bullet Drive]

As expected, Nauman & Zia miss out.

 

[Asif321]

Afridi thinks Sarfraz is threat to his captaincy ????

 

[Bullet Drive]

Nauman will only get one game. If he fails, will be end of his time in team for some time. Worst way to blood a cricketer.

 

[Kianig89]

Yup Afridi wary of Sarfraz i hope we 0se

 

[Bullet Drive]

Who is a youngster in this t20 team? Afridi said he is giving chances to youngsters where are htey

[Kianig89]

There is 2016 Wt20 and we are still persisting with Malik Hafeez n Afridi PCB at its best

 

[#GreenRoars]

Who is a youngster in this t20 team? Afridi said he is giving chances to youngsters where are htey

They will play next game, Nauman and Zia both. Afridi did the same against Zimbabwe. It is good to first give chance to Irfan and Tanvir

 

[Kianig89]

[MENTION=66397]Green[/MENTION]roars if we lose thia then forget about giving chance to youngster

 

[Bullet Drive]

They will play next game, Nauman and Zia both. Afridi did the same against Zimbabwe. It is good to first give chance to Irfan and Tanvir

No. Because if they fail that will be it. + extra pressure of only one game.

If we lose this, will Afridi change team?

 

[The_KING]

So no Nauman, Sarfraz or Zia. As expected Afridi's BFF is in the team and Akmal too. What has Umar done to be in the team let alone in the starting 11?

 

[11ShadyBrothers]

Afridi thinks Sarfraz is threat to his captaincy ????

Yup Afridi wary of Sarfraz i hope we 0se

Yeah. Afridi wary of the same guy who he made the captain of karachi dolphins.

 

[Asif321]

Sarfraz looks dissappointed in photograph seems like he is hurt

 

[#GreenRoars]

No. Because if they fail that will be it. + extra pressure of only one game.

If we lose this, will Afridi change team?

He will change team in both conditions. He will give chance to every one i guess

 

[cricketInsight]

Sarfraz omision is certainly a surprise considering his style of batting.

 

[Asif321]

Yeah. Afridi wary of the same guy who he made the captain of karachi dolphins.

lol nice joke how he made him? its not his authority infact he didnt want to play that tournament hence KD had to chose a captain

 

[Barragan]

Rizwan ahead of Sarfraz?

Sarfraz has a much better record and is more suited to this format, whilst rizwan isn't and he shouldn't even be in the squad.

 

[11ShadyBrothers]

There is 2016 Wt20 and we are still persisting with Malik Hafeez n Afridi PCB at its best #bonkers

Cry and cry a little more.

 

[Red Devil]

Sarfraz looks dissappointed in photograph seems like he is hurt

)

Give it a rest fgs, he's just being rested, who cares about freaking T20s anyway?

 

[11ShadyBrothers]

Rizwan ahead of Sarfraz?

Sarfraz has a much better record and is more suited to this format, whilst rizwan isn't and he shouldn't even be in the squad.

Everyone wanted rizwan to be played in the t20 thread.

 

[cricketInsight]

Sarfraz should be made captain after this series. Afridi, even if does well in the short term will not do well in WT20.

 

[11ShadyBrothers]

He will change team in both conditions. He will give chance to every one i guess

Yes. Thankgod. The voice of sanity. Afridi has been saying since zimbok series that how he is going about the process rather than the results and thats why everyone will get a chance.

 

[Cricket lover 27]

Yeah. Afridi wary of the same guy who he made the captain of karachi dolphins.

He did not give captaincy to him he does not play domestic cricket. He himself admitted that he has not played domestic cricket for a long while.

 

[Barragan]

Everyone wanted rizwan to be played in the t20 thread.

Doesn't even have the game for this format and has a SR of 115 in this format to further strength the fact he shouldn't be in the T20 suqad.

Give it a rest fgs, he's just being rested, who cares about freaking T20s anyway?

He surely isnt being rested.

 

[11ShadyBrothers]

Doesn't even have the game for this format and has a SR of 115 in this format to further strength the fact he shouldn't be in the T20 suqad.

How many games has rizwan played in t20 format?

 

[11ShadyBrothers]

He surely isnt being rested.

Yeah. Cricket insight with his kansipracy theories here my friends. Tell us why?

 

[ExplicitAI]

Don't get why you guys are asking for a rookie like Nauman to play against the number 1 T20 team , I feel this is a good XI. Would've replaced Rizwan with Sarfraz and pushed him at number four and push Umar down the order a bit.

 

[Barragan]

How many games has rizwan played in t20 format?

29 games.

 

[#GreenRoars]

New bowler Fernando starting

 

[11ShadyBrothers]

Aooje. :ahmed

[11ShadyBrothers]

Mukhtar almost would have gotten run out. Expect fickle PP to declare him a failure forever.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Guys don't use Selfie word for Shehzad. Thanks

 

[ExplicitAI]

Shehzy off the mark

 

[BleedGreen]

mukhtar wanted to smash that first ball

 

[11ShadyBrothers]

Mukhtar struggling.

 

[ExplicitAI]

Mukhtar reminds of this generation's Imran Nazir

 

[11ShadyBrothers]

[BleedGreen]

"Pakistan jeetega" chants in the stadium

[11ShadyBrothers]

Mukhtar struggling. LOL. And these guys wanted him to replace our openers.

 

[Strike Rate]

haha shelfie sound totla

 

[Madplayer]

Mukhtar gone. There goes the firepower lol

 

[Kianig89]

Mukhtar gone

 

[11ShadyBrothers]

Lou jee. Mukthar out. Expect PP analysts to rip him apart today and conveniently ignore that they were the same guys asking for him to replace shehzad as an opener. )

 

[Shafi]

Tuk tuk....

 

[#GreenRoars]

Mukhtar gone. Chalo better luck next time.

 

[ExplicitAI]

 

[srh]

Afridi drop the vice captain? )

 

[Naim]

did anyone saw indication from mathews before ball that he was going to bowl out swing.?

 

[Square Drive]

And the struggle is over. Very disappointing from Mukhtar, this.

Umar Akmal should come in next.

 

[Madplayer]

This team today is pretty ordinary in terms of firepower.

 

[Square Drive]

In walks Hafeez.

 

[Madplayer]

Slow start
