What's new

West Indies (184/5) secure a thrilling 5-wicket victory over Pakistan (171/7) via the DLS method, leveling the series 1-1 with one match remaining

Team consists of Shafiq, Babar and Rizwan should never score 270 unless someone like Hasan slogs blindly.
 
Generational talent failed in back to back matches and this is supposed to his strong format according to Pakistani fan's :kp
 
Why Shafiq is rated so highly without any notable performance. Mass propaganda from paid journalists I guess.
 
The problem is, what’s the point of rotating when you know you really won’t get the strike back from the other end with a guy intent on blocking?

That’s why Saim is just looking for boundaries. He knows he has to do the scoring.
No he doesnt know this. He is unable to rotate strike and half his shots or leaves are premeditated. Yes he has talent but dont be like a mother of spoiled kid who ll give any excuse to turn her eyes blind to the shortcomings of their son. He is good player but he needs massive improvement here. Good teams wont give u boundary balls and these dots ll cause damage. A lot of damage in crucial phases
 
It has now been more then 2 years since babar has scored a century in international cricket regardless of format (Test, odi and t20)

he has been found out.. add his inherent inability to play under pressure.. now whenever he comes to bat , He brings Extra pressure because he has not scored runs and his fans are running out of new reels

Well bro idk what to tell you.

@Rana and I have been told that their is no universe where babar and Rizwan do not make it into the playing 11 in any format.

We have also been told that Travis head would love to open with Rizwan.
 
That's shocking- he was so consistent
He looks lost whenever he comes to bat. He looks over pressurized and karma is taking its toll. He has done some great great injustices with some players during his captaincy period.
I dont think he will ever comes to his previous form.

He will remain like a monsoon rain. Come and go without any consistency.
 
Pakistan odi team is so boring apart from Hasan Nawaz whole batting lineup is boring to watch.
Fakhar is missing as well.
 
Has his reflexes and wrist gotten loose? - because of age? That could only explain why since the start of 2022 he is getting beaten inside and outside of his bat. As before 2022 he was compact.
His balance, which was so impeccable before this decline, is completely off.
 
Last international century was vs Nepal in 2023. Since then 0 centuries in any international format
Given the current situation and the hostility against Babar by some fans now (which shouldn't happen tbh - a line should never be crossed). Can we say that there's a high chance Babar's international career will end without any more centuries?

He is after all a player of Pakistan. The only country where the impossible becomes possible.

Assuming he doesmt get dropped he may get one here and their.
 
“I repeat

In no world does Babar, Rizwan and Shaheen not get into all formats Pakistan XI” :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:

His mentality is gone. We saw this with Malik too after he lost captaincy.

Was really dumb to give him back captaincy after taking it away. It wasn’t worth the risk. At least the first stint of captaincy you can say them were some highs, some lows, you could say he gave it up to concentrate on his form. The fiasco in the t20 World Cup, losing to USA etc, the second stint was complete failure, and it’s though to get back from that.

He was the wrong choice for captaincy in the first place. He only got it because he was our best player at the time. Captaincy should be given to experienced captains who have showed aptitude in domestic.
 
Run rate 3.87 on a road
Not a road but not a difficult pitch either. Theirs a bit of seam here and their but the outfield is lightning quick.

Its garbo batting as a whole though. This pitch is much easier then the 1st odi

Hostility of Fans is Justified.. When you are touted best among peers , Fans expect you to show up at clutch moments and he was missing since 2022.. lot of opportunities since 2022 to show up , always ends in Disappointment.. He was lucky to score that many runs mostly against Weaker sides. Hardly had any stellar performance against Full Strength Top 5
 
Zimbo shouldn't even be near National team. He must go back to domestics and improve his game and make team on merit again.

This is not his Father's team.He must be dropped.
 
well we won the T20 series which i never though we would and we won the first one day which again i dont know how we did so they have already exceeded my expectations as i expected both series to be lost
