Marnus was supposed to be the next Australian superstar but he’s out there being unprofessional and childish like this.

I expect PSL to impose a fine on the captains for this if we are to be serious about preserving the brand of PSL. This is Pakistan. Come to our country only to play serious cricket and not for these childish acts.

Calm down, they were just joking. Warner was also joking.

Don’t be immature. This was not some Instagram reel. It’s the captains press conference before the PSL commences. Serious business. At a time when we are competing with global leagues, especially the behemoth in the neighbourhood we are going head to head against, this is poor PR for us. This cannot be ignored. Anyone who wanna be childish can go seek an appointment with Epstein’a friends.
 
To this day I stick to this claim that a major component, if not the biggest component to Babar’s downfall is the fact that he allowed Rizwan to get too close to him and destroyed his work ethic.

This press conference is a good example of how his behaviour alters with Rizwan around him.
 
I don't know if I would call that lashing out, but yes, they were behaving like school kids and Warner was right to point it out. I expect nothing less from Labuschagne and Rizwan though, who seem like really annoying personalities off the field too.

In case your definition of lashing out is not David Warner putting his fellow captains on crippler cross face and jumping a frog splash on them, that’s literally what he did.

Fine is too much...

Calling them school kids is definitely calling them out
 
I think one factor is that all PSL teams have been training together at the same place and are all staying in the same hotel together

So a lot of them might have got carried away with cross team bonding. There seemed to be no decorum of seriousness here at all. Why was Shaheen acting like the ABBA of the entire PC? Mate you went for 26 against Shanaka in the last over you bowled in T20i
 
PCB Chairman will always be a Pakistani, Alhadulilah.

What are you’re asking for probably is a Chief Performance Consultant
Although he dances on the reels, still David does have that non veg energy that PCB is actively looking for to streer the Pakistan cricket from the slump

It’s not a joke. You must prove yourself with years of experience in a similar administrative role. This is Pakistan
We’re talking about. One of the top 3 greatest cricket nations ever after West Indies and Australia

Pakistan accepts guys like Rizwan. Not Warner.

Definitely don't doubt that bit about greatest cricket nations
This requirement of years of experience seems to be fairly recent, not upto date on IT

Babar is not a doodh peeta bacha. He is a 30 plus year old adult. He knows the difference between right and wrong

So Babar knew exactly how he was being ruined through Rizwan and their agency?

He was always bit shy and did not know when to say no. He was taken advantage of by those who were nearest to him.

Calling them out and lashing out are two different things. I didn't see Warner react in intense anger. It was a bit like a school teacher politely telling the backbenchers of the class to quiet down.
 
I don’t think Warner was at that point.

He was giving a serious answer and those guys carried on sniggering at something
Naa, he was just in a chill mode.

The press conference itself is a joke with the kind of questions that are ask, so no one takes it any serious.

The onus is on the journalists to ask proper questions. Players will treat it a circus with the kind of stuff that is asked.
 
Warner is a true professional, youngsters should learn from him.
No he isnt. His on the field antics before his wife was bashed by South Africa is well known.

He was the most unprofessional guy on the field

They did ask proper questions. Shaheen didn’t want to answer them. Nor did Babar about his strike rate

Not necessarily. A Muslim must rule the Khilafah, but a sports organization? Warner will do great. No heehee haha under his watch from the high 5 gang. Will give a beating with the bat if necessary for an x amount of dot balls consumed per innings.

Plus he is white and speaks English, already popular amongst the masses and Indian BCCI officials will respect him for this.

It’s time to give Warner Bro a shot. Can I get the Irani vote of confidence on this matter from you?
 
I remember the ICC ODI WC 2019 Captains press conference. It was a one hour affair where captains maintained professionalism and also dropped in light hearted humor where needed. Reporters asked everyone if there is one opposition player that they fear or they wish they had in their team.

Kachra Karachi media needs to be kept away from these press conferences. You need educated well spoken press reporters who can ask intelligent questions like an Osman Samiuddin.

Who will answer the intelligent questions ?

Easy to blame media. But looks at level of the players.

Someone with a bit of savvy can put kachra media in their place quickly.
 
Instead of wasting money on shitt shows like PSL invest in 4 day domestic make son in laws play there. So when a icc tournament comes along we don’t need to worry are we going to beat netherlands etc.

Because teams and players have long term reputational loss if they do badly in an ICC World Cup.

Not too many consequences for slipping up in a T20 league. Nobody will even remember 6 months from now.
 
No, you are mistaken. This is a fake account. There 4-5 other accounts of different cricketers that appear real but are fake accounts
Doesn't matter. The main thing is Warner replied and cleared the thing. The video is real. Warner's reply is real.... Indians are trying to make a fuss of that video and Warner just cleared the thing....

It matters because a random guy pretending to be Jadeja.

I don't know how Labuschagne is like off the field, but Warner is probably the only one is the leader and captain and has proven his mettle over the years (minus the whole sandpaper fiasco). He understands the game well, leads the team well with clarity and has presence.
Saud may be a fine tactician but he has no presence and doesn't fit leading the t20 team let alone opening. Babar and Rizwan are known commodities and they aren't very good either.
Shaheen does have leadership abilities but he is too self centered to be a good captain at the international level. His indifference to 10 players playing alongside him is not fit enough for a captain let alone his declining fitness and form and inability to learn new tricks. For Shaheen, it's always about inserting himself at the center stage.
The less said about Shadab, the better. That's just his ceiling, he'll simply be a t20 player now and never be good enough to merit a place in the team at international level.
I am not sure about Turner, but Perth Scorchers have been a very well led and organized team since the days of Katich.
It's good that KK didn't give Agha the captaincy job, cause after looking at his tactics in wt20, he ruined all the goodwill he had.
 
Pak Cricket needs no nonsense hardtask masters like Warner, Langer and Haddin to beat discipline and urgerncy into these players' lazy mindsets.

What did Warner clear? You really want people to believe that manager was pushing him away to shake warners hands? And warner was looking and talking angrily at Moen for no reason?

Warner is making a troll response in joke but you seriously believed that? Lol
 
I don't care about jadeja and his fake account or whatever... you are crying here. You can go... Peace
just pointing out that a fake account being treated as real and it makes the whole discussion unreliable. But yeah, if authenticity doesn't matter to you, fair enough! Peace

You used the Twitter account to target Indians and say Indians are making a fuss. If it's a fake account how do you know it's Indian? Why can't it be an attention seeking Pakistani troll (like there are a couple of trolls here pretending to be indian)? Why can't it be any other nationality?

And how does Warners response make any sense considering the actual video?

You!
Because anybody these days can make a joke about Pak cricket and PCB and it all feels real. Fine on Naseem Shah, Players fined for losing to India, trophy chori and the list goes on. This also looked almost real to people who don't know it's Jadeja fake account and only became clear when Warner replied.

Be worried my man
