[VIDEOS] "Azhar Ali isn't good enough"

:)) oh hear we go again hes averaged 46 since a certain date. you ran off and failed to address any questions how up until this series he was scoring one 50+ score per series. everyone can hide behind a misleading average.

Like I said, your obsession with Azhar Ali is just sad and pathetic. Get a life instead of endlessly quoting my replies...even when I'm in conversation with other people.
 
I think the writing is on the wall. Sadly we will be turning a blind eye again.

I dont judge players by averages, but by general approach to the game and Azhar is now outdated.
 
Story of Azhar’s career:

Make a normal situation look like a crisis. Be the first player to chicken out in an actual crisis situation.
 
Should be a statue built outside the stadium of Azhar dead batting a delivery. Dont want pakistan fans to forget this legend.

His expressions after his dismissal were priceless. Looks like it's his last test innings?

The story of Azhar's career?

Anything decent about Pak cricket is not allowed, we need to tear it down and regale in the successes of counterparts from other nations.

Typical Pak behaviour - his record is decent and he's produced consistently throughout his career.

He may not be good enough but 95 Tests deep means he's been consistently better than someone else and his record shows.
 
If a batsman can score by blocking it everyday instead of batting , playing shots and score 7000 test runs, then here we go Mr. Azhar ali is the easiest example for that..
 
He is a choker,I will never forget that innings he played against Newzealand at UAE,playing a debutant Ajaz Patel like Herath and failed to chase the target,it's not that Target was 250+.It was only 170.
 
Lol misbah still haunting these haters in their dreams. How logical to blame the 7 year ago captain for the test today.

Well he left a legacy of such meek mindset and characters which are still haunting the team and its run even in home series..

Indeed, chickened out to score 10 runs for victory and gave his wicket..
 
I used to be a big fan of his but now I can’t stand him. He is 3-4 years past his expiry date and should be kicked out immediately.
 
Azhar has based his whole career on this defensive style of play. All under the guise of giving our team stability, reliability and every other sensibility.

The problem is when you actually need it, the stage is set, he chokes and fails.

He’s had two innings where he had every opportunity to tuk tuk his life away, but both times he failed miserably.

Today an ugly hoick, in Karachi ducking under in to ball that was only just short of a length.

Now if he can’t even play his kind of innings when it’s actually required, what is the point of him? He should be thoroughly disgusted and ashamed that in one of those innings he could have had some sort of contribution.
 
To you they may be, to me they are not. I respect people based on who they are, not based on their profession.

Yet you keep replying which points to the contrary. You're not going to get my approval you might as well stop trying.

Well has has averaged 46 since 2020 and been Pakistan's second-highest run-scorer in tests since, so you tell me.

Well you don’t know Azhar Ali personally so you don’t know who he is.

By your logic since you are replying to me you are also seeking my approval.

His averages and being a top Pakistan run scorer does not equate to him winning games for Pakistan. What did his run scoring do in this match?

Forget about players, our cricket followers are also now softies who keep on praising a softie , chokers who could not save a test match on a very flat home wicket , after 93 test experience .

As I mentioned in my post yesterday, I would give credit to Azhar if he played a match saving knock first time , but as expected , he failed when team needed some runs or stay at the wicket.

He has been doing this all over his career, scoring cheap runs when wicket is easy and no pressure to keep his place in the team .

Exactly. This is exactly what I said earlier in this thread

Records and personal milestones mean nothing when the team you are playing for losses the match. Our mentality is all wrong here. Instead of caring for averages we need to care about the team. Azhar Ali is a perfect example of such player whose in it for pretty averages.
 
A step in the right direction will be to move on from him. Might as well go with new blood if we have to lose and fail.
 
Thanks Mate! another repeat of the same thing today. Had the perfect opportunity but like I said the cancer that he is....with this tuk tuk good for nothing.

I bet you if he didn't come one down any other batsmen would have actually gone for the score on the last day.
 
So pakistan test scoring run rates lowest since 2000. Well done Azhar for being prime reason for batting like a snail and infecting rest of batsmen with same scoring disease.

When you have seniors like Azhar, the younger players coming in will also develop the same pathetic mindset and learn to dead bat everything that comes their way.

Azhar is a selfish cricketer only looking to prolong his career whichever way possible. None of these boys care about Pakistan cricket.
 
I really don't know what is all the fuss with his strike rate? This is test cricket after all.

My main concern is his average, plus his inability to score when it mattered most.

its not the strike rate, its the face regardless of match situation 100/1, 200/1 or 0/1 he comes out and just blocks like someone is bowling hand grenades. He kills the team inns as well as his. He makes every inns look like a crisis for no reason.
 
Azhar was batting like a tail ender in 2017/18 - yet instead of dumping him they made him skipper and now retain him for his so called "experience" the fact PCB couldnt grow a pair of balls and drop him like asad shafiq is reason they are in this mess.
 
Last 3 year stats Azhar vs Asad Shafiq and Shafiq averages more but he is dropped the lobby in PCB never amazes
 
I used to be a big fan of his but now I can’t stand him. He is 3-4 years past his expiry date and should be kicked out immediately.

Exactly, we all were, even though he wasn't the most attractive batsman around, he was still a solid batsman and integral part of our batting.

But he's expired now and is out of place in the side and this is what his fans can't come to terms with.

I think dropping Asad was the right decision. However, they should have applied the same logic to Azhar. Azhar who out of the two probably was worse from 2018-2020 (I don’t know the numbers, just going by memory)

I guess Azhar had a higher peak and being ex captain and batting up the order he got a longer rope

The right decision was made with shafiq and azhar shouldve followed too

Yes drop Asad and Azhar and recall YK and Misbah you cant expect result in Test cricket with 11 rookies, Test teams are transitioned gradually unlike chop and change

10 others playing in the "team."

Azhar's done his bit more often than not.

A transition is when a performing player is dropped and someone younger with more of a future comes in

Shafiq was dropped because of a lack of performance and results not because of a transition He just wasnt good enough

Then with the same criteria Azhar should have been dropped also its all lobby in PCB

Yes 10 other players in the which he is older than and the most experienced of all. Hence why expectations are much more higher. Thanks for pointing this point out. It helps with understanding why his performances are highlighted more than 10 other players.

Had Azhar Ali done it more often than not we would not be having this discussion right now. His innings all come under less pressure with zero impact in helping us win the game. When he is really required to save the Test match he is gone missing. As a senior player who has played over 90+ Tests this is unacceptable.

OK you can win.. Azhar is useless - happy?
 
lets see if PCB show courage and drop Azhar after his shameful county stint.

In fairness, Misbah taught him and set this precedent by prolonging his career until his mid 40s.
 
In Pakistan's XI for the 1st Test vs Sri Lanka - Don't see him being dropped unless he decides to leave himself.

He will play 100 tests which is a disgrace in itself. Should have been dropped back in 2017. He scores 1 good inns a series to pad his stats and his fan boys then say "oh look at his average" hes performing.

The Aussie series was ideal time to move on from Azhar and fawad.
 
607 runs @ 46.69, with a SR of 49. Really shameful.

This is why you shouldn't put the cart before the horse.

:)) 36th on Average rankings in 2nd division. Dont let that fact slap you in the face.

225 of 607 runs in 1 inns. Again highlights he gets 1 or 2 decent scores every 6 inns or so. But in your deluded world thats performing.
 
Really important that Azhar steps up on this tour of Sri Lanka and leads the way in the top order for Pakistan. Score big, and not too slowly.

So your asking Azhar to do something thats hes failed to do in 99% of his test inns :facepalm:
 
Looking at Eion Morgan doing the decent and respectful process of retiring before ruining his reputation as a great captain.

Unfortunately Azhar Ali doesn't have any of that decency to that. Otherwise Saud Shakeel would have played for atleast 3 years now in the test team.

By this idiotic assessment you could dismiss the batting averages of just about every batter in the world. I mean what do you think an average even denotes? That the player has scored the same number of runs in every innings?

You thought that he would fail miserably but instead he put his woeful start behind him and ended up having a great season where he scored 2 hundreds and 2 fifties. And now you have egg on your face which is why you're covering up by quoting irrelevant facts such as he is "36th on the average ratings" lol. The fact that you even mentioned that just goes to show the great lengths you went to, to make light of his performances.

Hes playing in the county championship 2nd division, not division 1. His number of rund isnt something to rave on about.

Again all you seem to go on about is average. you think 1 good inns every 6 inns is that of a quality batsmen.

A player can score 200 in 1 inns then get 5 scores less then 10 and have a decent average and to someone like you thats so called performing.

irrelevant facts :)) i gave you context to how mediocre a batsmen Azhar is with his 46 average in a weak 2nd division.

100% spot on comments.

Azhar has never had a reputation. He shoulf have been dropped in 2017 when he was batting like a number 11. instead PCB made him test captain. only in pakistan do you see such corruption and rewarding mediocre performances. now he plays 1 good knock a series and some fans are doing bhangra like hes a pakistani legend.

He has this obession with reaching 100 test matches and that in itself is damning that he is allowed to do so. It took way to long to get rid of Asad Shafiq and now Azhar has become a major headache.

But its not one good innings is it? It's two great innings and a couple of good innings....in 8 matches. Far from a "shameful county stint" which is what you called it.

Lol there is very little difference between the county divisions in England considering there are only 2 to begin with, and 4 teams change leagues every season.

It's just sad and pathetic...the lengths you are going to, to completely dismiss someone who averaged 46.69. Just because you have an unhealthy dislike for the guy.
 
I was happy that Azhar was on his last legs and he'd be dumped once he reaches 100 Tests. But such is our curse, that we have now found Azhar's replica in Abdullah Shafique. Another extremely timid, mentally shot batsman.

Batting like a number 11 coward today. As usual playing as thou hes facing murali and warne in there prime. Im sure ul still defend his pathetic effort so far.

No I just expect people to admit they are wrong when they are proven wrong....kinda like you were when you called his county stint "shameful" before it even ended. Changing the topic is a coward's way out, but since you asked and since I'm not you, I'll indulge. He was awful today. And if he brings his grinding approach to this pitch tomorrow, it will bode badly for the team because there is zero logic in defending on a wicket like this where its only a matter of time before you get a ball with your name written on it.

He brings the dead bat grinding inns to a halt inns every game. There have even been 2 tests (1 in UAE and in pakistan) vs Aussies where hes come in at 200/1 and proceeded just to block. The fact a player is playing every ball like a hand grenade shows hes not fit to play test cricket.

Thing is, I am willing to admit that Azhar is not a perfect player. Far from it. He has many glaring flaws in his game. But the problem with you is that you are not willing to give him any credit. And that's where you lose any and and all credibility in my eyes. If averaging 40+ over 90+ tests was that easy than far more Pakistani batters would have done it. Surely he had something that allowed him to be successful at the highest level for prolonged periods of time, even if he wasn't necessary performing on Steve Smith or Virat Kohli's level. You though seem to be emotionally invested in seeing him fail, and that for me is just sad and pathetic.
 
He's well past it, needs to be booted asap. Just a passenger now so we can help him to 100 Tests. :facepalm:

There was a period where Azhar was a decent batsmen in the side but that was a period when he had misbah and Younis khan in the side to fall back on aswell. Since MisYou retired Azhar has not step up to the plate as a seniod player or lead from the front. You can present all the stats you want they dont reflect a true picture. 2017-18 his batting was that of a tail ender yet PCB rewarded such poor performance with captaincy. Even in last 3 years he tends to score 1 good inns per series to save hid place.

Exactly the same thing Moyo (early career) and Asad Shafiq use to do.

He is now a senior player and his performances arent that of a player leading from the front. All he is doing is limping towards 100 tests with no regards to the team but just a selfish landmark himself.

You look back at any other senior players in team the so called junior batsmen at time stepped up and took it to a next level.

Malik / Miandad -> Anwar / Inzi - > Inzi / Moyo -> moyo / YK -> YK / Misbah

each time we lost a senior, someone steppef up. Niether Asad Shafiq nor Azhar step up.

Now we have players like saud shakeel, kamran ghulam who could have been picked for Aus series and played here in SL and Eng /NZ series and had Babar/Rizwan to learn off as a new cycle. Instead you have Azhar holding a position hostage. Its nothing to do with hatred of a player. hes simple a mediocre senior who doesnt play match winning knocks or lead from the front.
 
Also for all his so called good averages over last 3 years what match or series winning knocks has he played against good sides?
 
He's well past it, needs to be booted asap. Just a passenger now so we can help him to 100 Tests. :facepalm:

Sadly the captain doesnt have the balls to drop his mates Azhar or Hasan Ali from the team. Certain players are allowed a free ride in the team.

This conversations is going around in circles. I've already argued all this stuff with you numerous times. I agree with you that Azhar has failed to live up to the expectations people had from him. Certainly he can't be compared to the names you mentioned. But he is still a very good batter for someone with such limited ability and talent. He's gritty and possesses the ability to find his way in tough situations, and he has succeeded at the top for a number of years. If you do a deep dive into his numbers you will find that are very much comparable to Pujara, who doesn't nearly get the same level of stick from Indian fans as Azhar does from Pakistani fans...eventhough Azhar has had to bat in a far worse batting line-up than Pujara for the last 5 or so years.

But anyway, let's just agree to disagree since its obvious that both of us feel strongly about our points of view.

Azhar is a steady batsman and has had an accomplished career. Some of the posts on this thread will make you think he averages 30 and not 43.

He is still performing at a decent level. He averaged 42 in 2021 and currently 60 this year.

People say he scores one good innings per series . That is a myth. He has crossed 50 6 times including 2 100s in his last 20 innings which is roughly once every 3 innings .

He gets no credit at all by some people , they really have sad lives . You would think he stole there lunch money .

He is not a world beater but he is doing his job effectively for the team .

If you take our azhar Ali we have a relatively inexperienced test battling line up . Just let the guy be .

What effective job is he doing for the team?

What match winning or saving knocks is he playing?

Also what a loaf of rubbish about if hes not playing the team in inexperienced. Both Babar and Rizwan provide experience.

what good is a senior player who provides no contributions to a team winning games?

Yet another person looking at averages with zero context.

why dont you list out all his inns in last 2 years and point out the match winning ones against good teams?
 
The guy spends his entire innings trying to survive not getting out. Even on the flattest of tracks on a baking hot road, he will still be trying to survive 80mph deliveries. Put him and us out of his misery for fruit sake.
 
Since 2020
Bangladesh - 34
England - 0, 18, 20, 141, 31 (1 x 50+ score in series)
NZ - 5, 38, 93, 37 (1 x 50+ score in series)
SA - 51, 31*, 0, 33 (1 x 50+ score in series)
Zimbabwe - 36, 126 (1 × 50+ score in series)
WI - 23, 0, 22, 0
Aus - 185, 14, 6, 78, 17 (2 x 50+ score in a series)

Facts - Apart from Aus series, Azhar scores 1 x 50+ score per series.

But thats a so called sufficient performance from senior player.

Facts - Apart from Aus series, Azhar scores 1 x 50+ score per series.

But thats a so called sufficient performance from senior player.

So the Zimbabwe series was a one match series or he only played one test not sure which one it was . The fact that he scores 162 including runs in the match including a 100 has completely bypassed you but you had to include that to prove your point . Sad times .

South Africa he was not out in one innings so you can argue he could have got another 50 or even more .

He was poor in the West Indies series but apart from that they are decent numbers .


Anyway to break it down even further since 2020 he has played 25 innings .
Which includes
3 50s
3 100s and host of 30s.
There’s low scores included no doubt but those figures show he is still performing . He averages 45 in this period ! Just take a chill pill .

Still performing :))) 1 good inns a series is performing is it?

You really are deluded. wow an average of 45! yet when broken down it shows hes contributing next to nothing in most series.

Your hyping up his 100 against ziwbabwe :)) oh sorry i forgot they are top test team.

Not a single match winning or saving inns against any Top test team.

Both you and your other Azhar fan in this thread are hilarious with your excuses.
 
Wonderful knock by Azhar again. 3 off 38 balls. Surely he will continue breaking records this way. No one will come close to it.

Who needs bazball when we have azball

You lead a very sad my friend . Your hatred has no bounds . An average of 45 is damn good no matter how bad you want to portray it and the last time I checked he averaged 60 in the Australia series .
He obviously has done something to really upset you , forgive him and stop being so toxic. Just because someone does not meet your criteria of a good player , does not mean you knock their achievements.

Now smile . Peace out

Well you're entitled to your opinion. But personally, I find nothing hilarious about your toxic obsession with Azhar. I just find it incredibly sad that someone would devote so much of their time to espousing this kind of negativity about someone, on such a regular basis.
 
Azhar Aloo is the saviour we need. Look at him. He tries so hard. The concentration his amazing. Even if he makes 10 ducks how can you be angry at that concentration. Poor guy is always trying oh so hard. And if he gets out, bad luck I say. Let’s keep him on for another 10 years
