USA (159/3) & (18/1) defeat Pakistan (159/7) & (13/1) by 5 runs in a super over thriller to cause the first major upset of the ICC T20 World Cup 2024

I was him speak. He has such good insight and understand the game so well. No wonder we won T20 WC under his captaincy. Guys like him should be part of the management.
He is just a different breed. And he has a great mind for the game. Thing about him though is that he is outspoken and blunt. And doesn't care if that rubs people the wrong way. He would rather be true to himself. It's something I greatly respect about him but also something that doesn't endear him to others.
 
In hindsight those 2 overs of Jasdeep and Harmeet which cost 39 seriously bailed Pak out. Take those away and there would have been an embarassing defeat loading
 
Honestly Pakistan is par with Bangladesh and Srilanka now . Afghanistan are way ahead
 
Shaheen deliberately under performing because he got booted out of captaincy.. that’s Pak cricket in a nutshell. Waqar younis use to do it aswell.
Lol that's a big accusation.
You're totally ruling out that he's maybe just a bit overrated as an 'allrounder' and instead is just a legside hack?
 
Chacha shooting blanks at his age...time to put the old horse to pasture....
 
To be fair, it's not an easy wicket to bat on. Pakistan totally misjudged the pitch by trying to play aggressive cricket from the get go.

Fakhar and usman threw it away the needed a couple of overs to play themselves in and then let loose

Questionable shots
 
Chacha fans what’s ur excuse today???? Keep putting him in ur playing squad for a performance like this?????

Pak will still win because pacers will be too hot for USA minnow batters

But must acknowledge batting really messed up. Babar was pathetic throughout inns.

Shadab showed how USA bowlers should be treated. If Fakhar hadnt messed up there was 190-200 for the taking

I feel like we shouldn't underestimate USA playing on their home turf.

Our batting was horrible. Babar in my opinion played well. Without him we would be looking at a score of 120.
