[VIDEOS] Aamer Jamal - International performance thread

He and Usama can singlehandedly cost you matches from winning position because of their lack of control , should be strictly away from T20 sides and new players should be tried for the T20 Worldcup. I mean common who selected them in the first place? Is Wahab have no idea about his selected players?

Usama mir should never be selected. An awful cricketer. Doubt jamal will play t20s beyond this series. He will get smacked 9 times out of 10.
 
Great learning curve, Wahab and Wasim were right to select him and it will force him to concentrate more. He may not develop but he is well worth investing. Let him play the rest of the series and then start to make judgements.
 
Sometimes it's necessary to get hammered. If he can learn and come back from this a better player then he is well worth the investment.

He has the potential to be much more of an all-rounder than the fakers we have been selecting for years.
 
has got hammered in every game but maybe a bowling all rounder potential needs a lot of work
 
Didn't really have an issue with his selection but it's probably best to stick with him in Test and maybe give him a try in ODI's

Doesn't appear to be suited to 4 overs and also he's just trying to establish himself in the Test side so being selective in the format he plays is the sensible approach
 
should be given atleast 3 games before i will pass my judgement in t20s.
 
Not easy playing in this attack opposition will likely attack him he needs to cover it up with batting

Arif yaqoob or ramiz the leggie are very accurate. I'm sure they'd be better than usama who bowls a long hop every 1st ball he bowls
 
He did ok with the ball, and probably should have batted above.

He's not a specialist T20 bowler. He is an attacking wicket taker so will travel the distance.

The real attraction to the think tank is his batting in T20s, can be useful down the order with big shots from ball one. BUT so much pressure on him already , just let him do his thing, if it comes off it comes off.

I would give him 1-2 games more this series then bring in Wasim. Wasim has been travelling since WC and no game time. It looked like he was really getting confidence in that WC and Pakistan has since benched him.
 
just because he performed well in test doesn't mean you throw him into T20 right away ahead of seasoned Mohammad Wasim. Amir jamal
was very very wayward yesterday
 
He got smoked to all parts of the ground. He did get a wicket though but it was another one of the no-balls out of many extras he bowled earlier during that Aussie series. He is a good prospect but he needs to work on his line and length if he wants to succeed.
 
Aamer Jamal would want everybody including himself to forget about his comeback game against New Zealand. He has another chance today in the 2nd T20 to prove his worth else he might be replaced with Wasim in the next match.
 
Jamal got the 1st wicket of the match as he removed Conway. thank GOD. It was not a No ball...LOL

In 26 T20s, Aamer Jamal has an economy rate of 10.21 whilst in 6 T20Is so far, Jamal has conceded runs at an economy of 11.10😯

Does he merit a place in the starting XI❓🤔
 
I think he needs to tidy up his line and length and be more consistent. He sprayed it around in the Test arena and is doing it here too. He needs to try and keep it tighter in this format. That T20 economy rate is way too high. Zaman would be better imo

T20s require a different skill set which I don't think he currently has so definitely doesn't deserve to be getting picked ahead of better T20 players like Zaman.

Aamer Jamal should focus on Tests and ODIs. He will never get the exposure in T20Is that he is capable of.
 
The West Indies Captain Kraigg Brathwaite speaking to media today, praised Aamer Jamal with following remarks :

"We saw his lengths. He really attacked the stumps a lot and his length, it was quite a bit fuller than the other guys," Brathwaite said. "I think, especially early on, you can always get carried away as fast bowlers. Obviously in the Caribbean, we are not accustomed [to bowling those lengths], we don't see many pitches like this. So for young fast bowlers to come, they get a bit excited and bowl a little shorter.
 
Amazed they’re not sticking with him tbh. We saw what he could do in the test series with ball and bat.

Ideally one of Shaheen or Rauf could have sat this game out.

But with job insecurity being what it is, it seems nobody in a leadership role is prepared to take that risk.

It’s a shame because Jamal could have benefitted from the exposure of all 5 t20’s but instead we’re going to see Shaheen and Rauf for the millionth time.

He's not ready for this format. Doesn't have variation even.

Fans need to realize now that they only harm their team when they mix formats and judge a player on one format based on another

Fair enough. Shouldn’t be considered for selection in white ball for a while so he can add variety to his repertoire.
 
I'd rather stick with him than go back to Nawaz that's for sure. Not good for the boy's confidence getting the boot so soon. Not as if anyone else has been lighting up the team.
 
So we got an allrounder now we are chopping and changing him on the basis of meaningless t20s, Hafeez has to be most clueless director
 
He was only good in australia because he grew up playing cricket there
He's being shown up in new zealand and is leaking runs again
 
Like i said, he is a garbage bowler. Single handedly lost Zalmi the game tonight.

His wickets in test were a fluke, bowling garbage all over the wicket. Got exposed in the PSL

Your right He looks absolute cannon fodder this guy. Just runs in and bows no clue where the bow is going. Crap version of Wahab riaz. Proper spray gun. I would put him on par with hasnain.

I would rather take fluke wickets bowling garbage than not taking wickets with good lines and lengths.

He was awful with the ball and has been all tournament, but he did well enough in Australia especially compared to everyone else, to get another run elsewhere. If he fails then so be it - at least he will have been picked on merit unlike many others.

Good line and length is what makes you a good bowler. You may not pick wickets in every spell, but it helps you in performing consistently and putting up a show in 6 out of 10 games.

Fluke performances means that you will do good 1 in 10 games and end up bein part of the loses in the 9 games.

He did not do well in Australia. He was terrible. He was bowling all over the wicket plus the Australian side itself wasnt really that good. The wickets he got were flukes.

He is not going to last in international cricket if he keeps bowling like that and will be dropped in less than 2 years. Bowling in test itself is an art. Guys like Amir, Asif, Wahab made a name for themselves due to there line and lengths they used to maintain and how consistent they were in grounds like England.

He took wickets and plenty of them with a healthy strike rate and average. Now he may fail and probably will fail but after performing it is only deserving he gets another go.

He will get away his with poor lines in test cricket and may be ODI too in middle orders but T20s is not his format for now.

Actually poor lines will actually be helpful in test cricket because batsmen being in defensive mode will find it hard to adjust to his good deliveries and he might pickup more wickets because of his unpredictability in his line and length, that’s exactly how he managed more wickets in Australia. It wasn’t fluke but the unpredictability of his line and length which resulted in his wickets.
 
He is not a death bowler. His line length is bread and butter for batters looking to hit out at the end. He needs to be used in the early or middle overs
 
Smart of him to bowl half volleys in PSL. You don’t want to show your hand 🖐️ in these choti moti leagues.

Keep your tricks hidden for the international stage.
 
Bowling wise he's all over the place - his action can do with some help if he wants to but being around 28-30 now he could find it difficult to tweak.

A captain like Rizwan will get the best out of him especially if he has World class bowlers like Shaheen and Naseem in the line up as well. Aamer Jamal has done enough to be in the WC squad
 
He just doesn’t have a brain. Keeps bowling length and has zero variations.

Getting smashed by Haider Ali of all people for so many runs should be a wake-up call.
 
Babar Azam today in a presser explained the reason behind non inclusion of Aamer Jamal in the T2OI squad:

"Aamer Jamal performed in Test cricket and Test performance cannot be compared with T20s. He is a fine all-rounder. He need some more time and more matches under his belt which will get him further polished for T20 cricket,"

Aamer Jamal is a decent batsmen, but a brainless bowler in LOI cricket. Got smashed in New Zealand, and then delivered a master-class for Zalmi against Haider Ali. I mean any half-decent bowler can get that tullaybaaz out within three deliveries at maximum, but this guy proceeded to gift the match to Islamabad single-handedly.

Needs time to foster the right temperament for LOI bowling. We already have Haris Rauf for charity donations in every game.
 
he is just a refined version of Rana Naveed ul Hassan.

Bowling wise all over the place, in batting dont expect much to do because he only knows how to smash a ball without any feet movement.
 
Not his fault he is being selected as a fourth pacer in a match only four bowlers are selected. He doesn't have the match fitness for this and is only good enough as an allrounder bowling here and there as a fifth bowler.

Had common sense prevailed and they had played Mir Hamza Pak would have won this game. Or Shan Masood would have made sure Pak choked at the end with his horrendous decision taking capabilities?
 
Awww unlucky today. Some wayward bowling by all the bowlers. Have to learn to seize key moments not start gifting loose deliveries but good that they pushed SAF so hard till the end.
 
Poor with bat and ball. His 2nd inns dismissal was one of the worst of the lot.

You have a set batter in Saud. Only the tail left to come. Just stay with him and try to extend lead to 180-200.

Instead he picks out one of the two fielders stationed on the pull off the bowling of 120kph budda Dane Paterson.

He's a decent cricketer but massively overrated by our fans. I would never have him batting any higher than 8 in any formats expect t20s.
 
His bowling is massively underrated by Shan and Aqib they see more as a 8# who adds batting depth then a fourth bowler the reason he bowled so well in Australia was he was bowled like a proper bowler and I think it had more to do with Hafeez even in the England 800 game he was much better then Shaheen and Naseem but since Aqib has came in the picture he has been hardly bowled and this has dented his confidence

People with prior agendas will jump on this thread and call him a rubbish bowler.
But, there was nothing I saw that was rubbish when he didn’t even get to bowl.
He’s not rehabilitated fully since injury.
And you’re right that he doesn’t have the same backing. Doesn’t get much opportunity to bowl

Already mentioned in match thread. There was a pathetic lack of match awareness from nearly all our batsmen in 2nd innings.

You should be making 300 min from 153-3 especially when pitch had somewhat eased up from before.
 
So frustrating, Aamer needs to work on his batting a bit to becone a real force in Tests.
