[VIDEO] Imam-ul-Haq as captain of Peshawar Zalmi?

[Rana]

Potential captains don’t fall 35% into a big chase regularly

Very rash shot by Imam for his dismissal:

Imam should definitely take over as captain, but only for the toss. Sammy should be controlling everything from outside the boundary. From field placings to bowling changes.

 

[Amjid Javed]

He helps PZ get to 199 tonight and he may well become a very GOOD option for captain

Would just be a captain like sohail akthar, just there to toss coin and waste deliveries at top of the order.

 

[TeymurBlake]

He was looking good but his lack of strike rotation at times was irritating.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Zalmi have won both big chases oncd imam has got out and others havw e come in and picked up scoring rate. Hes had no influence on either recent run chase.

 

[Thunderbolt14]

Vital contribution from Imam in yet another run chase, setting the platform for the middle order to come and explode. If Kamran Akmal or TKC had stuck around, this game wouldn’t have been as close as it ended up being.

He’s the entire reason behind the run chase. This is how you chase games.

Imam Apologists are easily the most clueless lot. At par with Shehzad fans during his "prime".

How on earth can 41 off 30 be justified in a chase of 200? That too with fielding restrictions in effect. Takes serious amount of besharmi to defend such mediocrity. Hats off.

The chase succeeded. After the early loss of Kamran and TKC, no point trying to play hard and induce a collapse. Imam’s contribution was the most important part of the match as it laid the platform for Haider and Rutherford to tee off.

Imam against non-minnows:

Tests: Avg 21. S/R 43.

ODIs: Avg 37. S/R 73.

T20s: Avg 10. S/R 84.


Ridiculous to see a glorified minnow basher get so much suopport. No wonder Pakistan cricket is in total disarray.


Just to be clear, there's always a probability of batsman going back to domestic, working on his basics & coming back strong after making amends. I'd love to see Imam do that. But right now, he's rich man's Ahmad Shehzad. Nothing more than that.

 

[Firebat]

Imam goes for a 3-ball duck, bouncer from Hassan got too big on him

 

[Rana]

He only turns up for the big games when PZ are chasing 200, not a small total player

 

[Rana]

Misbah and PCB need to apologise to Pakistan cricket fans for actually considering Imam ul Haq as an opener in T20i against Australia! This is why Misbah is so out of touch with reality!!!!

 

[Saj]

I thought his 7 runs off 8 balls was an integral part of PZ's chase against IU.

Vital innings.

 

[Yasir_ch]

Rabb da khauf Kar.He should not even play Odis and this guy wants him to captain a team in franchise cricket.LOL.This is just dumb.He is one of the most limited batsman I have ever seen.Awful player.

 

[Rana]

Zazai showing PSL and PP what a T20 opener should be

Imam also being shown at the same time how he isn’t a T20 batsman at all!

 

[Firebat]

Quite poor again. Obviously not a T20 player, don't know why he gets picked.

 

[Saj]

The relative culture needs to be eradicated from the PSL.

Some of these guys should be nowhere near a T20 tournament.

 

[Concerned]

Picking Imam was a tactical move. He was picked to ensure any early momentum gained is lost giving a chance to the middle order to step up.

 

[Saj]

107 runs in 6 innings at PSL6

Average of 17.83

Strike rate of 109.18

Ridiculously poor numbers.

 

[Concerned]

Would Inzamam be a driving factor in his selection?

 

[Rana]

The relative culture needs to be eradicated from the PSL.

Can Misbah explain why he was ever picked to represent Pakistan in T20i?

 

[Yasir_ch]

Awful mediocre player who should be nowhere near Pakistan's limited overs squad.He is very very limited just like that Ahmed Shahzad.

 

[moghul]

Azam Khan selected on Moin Khan's quota

Imam on Inzi's quota

 

[sindhiboy]

Lol, imam tried his very best to win the match for Karachi

 

[MenInG]

Unable to keep his place in the side - how can he be captain?
