[VIDEOS] Nauman Ali - Test performance watch

Most overrated bowler alongside his spin buddy, Sajid Khan.

Just your nuts and bolts cricketer that's been given a chance (and another) to showcase his ineptitude.

Pakistan is in trouble if these are the picks to represent them in Tests.

At this point in time you may aswell bring Shadab back.
 
Garbage bowler with zero potency to take wickets. Time to move on.
 
M Wasim is also a clueless selector. He may retained him along with Yasir as well in the name of experience.

Wasim has to take some blame but so does the head coach and captain as they ones who have stil picked him.

Who would you have picked instead of Yasir and Nuaman ?

Pak are in deep deep trouble when the leading spinners for tests are Yasir(on current form), Nauman and Agha and even Nawaz(has hardly played the role of a lead spinner in FC). In addition, the other names we have are Zafar (a decent spinner/lower order bat for English conditions maybe, may be worth a go with the current set of names we have), Sajid (yes him) and Shadab(can't believe I am vouching for Shadab's inclusion in the tests when he hasn't played FC cricket for so long).

Agha is not a spin he's basically Dom bess level from England.Nuaman can't spin the ball all he can do is hold an end up.Nawaz has bowled well but he's a number 8.Shadab is good enough to bat at 7 however his bowling needs work but could play in a 5 man attack.
 
Babar on Nauman:

"We have Nauman Ali who is an experienced bowler and is able to bowl with consistency in the same areas and we also have other young spinners in Pakistan; These are new faces and talent that you will see soon"
 
Should be dropped from the squad he got lucky by getting picked in this squad.
 
He's a below average spinner. I think this should be end of his international career.

Its a matter of shame when your main spinner can't take wickets on spin tracks of Bangladesh and Sri Lanka.

There's absolutely no need to play an average spinner, who is close to 40.

There are some left arm spinners in Pakistan, chance should be given to relatively younger player.
 
Nauman Ali batted well - should have come earlier than Faheem.
 
Talk Nah stuff from Nauman this morning :)

He’s bowled quite well through this game.

More economical that zahid who was giving 2 hit me bowls every over.

Batted ok so correct selection probably 2 tests too late.
 
He looks exactly what he is, which is a good experienced pro who has played a lot of FC cricket and won’t easily let a team down with bat or ball in hand. Solid selection.

Yeah needed for home conditions. The section committee again looking incompetent for not picking him for the first two tests.
 
Nauman one 1 from 47 now...

I know its not his job to score runs but this is pretty poor - are we playing on a minefield?
 
That was an odd innings from him today.

Didn’t seem to show much interest in scoring runs on this occasion.

Following the end of the day, left-arm spinner Nauman attended the press conference where he was asked an unusually critical question about his performances for the side of late. The reporter narrated Nauman's stats over the past four innings and went on to say that the spinner has scored a century (with the ball).

“We know it's a dead wicket but spinners have a role to play on such tracks. If we look at your stats, you have scored centuries in last four matches with the ball. You've conceded 100+ runs. If spinners can't take wickets… do we only rely on god's will to save us, like Saqlain Mushtaq had said? Do players not have the talent anymore?” the reporter asked Nauman bluntly.

The Pakistan spinner calmly reminded the reporter to also count the overs.

“You correctly said that I conceded 100+ runs but you didn't count the overs. I've bowled 40-45 overs. If you bowl almost half of the team's overs, you are bound to concede runs. We try to do our best on the conditions given to us. And we will try to win this match as well,” said Nauman in a rather composed manner.
