Lala Boom BoomI feel captaincy and star power were huge.
But look at the big names in there - so many match-winners in the shorter format
Do you think Younis deserves some praise for Afridi's performances?
Amirs execution to Dilshan in the first over of the final. Pakistan came out with a real plan and stuck to it. If Dilshan had gotten away then the game would have been tough.
Kinda disagree for 2009, the bowling was all star. Batting wise afridi, Akmal, razzaq carried.
He didn't chuck during that era. Records show he started doing so after the hussey beating a year later.
He might have forgot because there was no contribution to remember.
45, too kind. Ajmal had plenty of Indian punnani with 90 degrees to
Back then a lot of the batsmen in most teams were Test and ODI players as well. It wasn’t a custom to learn T20 style batting only as it is now. Nailing a perfect Yorker meant it would be a single at most or a wicket. Nowadays, no particular type of delivery is safe.
YK was a gun captain. But he himself was out of place in odi and t20 sadly
2017 amd 2009 weren't flukes, people just think they are cause of agendas.
Hahah mate, you’ve also been converted. 1992 was not a fluke. You cannot fluke a major tournament. It isn’t about being the best team “on the day” and all of that bull. You have to play consistently good cricket and mind games to be able lift that trophy.
Fluke is the wrong word, it's best to say luck.
Exactly. Your comment highlights the kind of luck it takes for every team to win a tournament. I mean, just look at England in 2019.
I meant luck, as I said fluke isn't the right word, but If you read my past comments and my POTW I've gone in severe detail on luck aspects in tournaments.
What I’m trying to say is that when Pakistan is lucky, people call it a fluke - when others are lucky, people call it luck or fate or whatever else.
Bro I understood what you said. Hum Pakistani khoon kei hain, Urdu ki kyon nahi samaj ap kei Bhai ko Ai gi?

Good stuff bro. Idk there’s a lot of overseas Pakistanis here, and I love that but they might not necessarily understand colloquial idioms.Bro I understood what you said. Hum Pakistani khoon kei hain, Urdu ki kyon nahi samaj ap kei Bhai ko Ai gi?
2017 had luck elements in the Sri lanka game and drs against SA, idk if Pakistan would have chased that.
England and India games were a breeze and walk in the park for Pakistan.
I'm an overseas Pakistani as well living in Sydney. But I travel to Pakistan very frequently, like once every 2-3 months and usually stay for 1-2 months. I'm usually in Pakistan 4 months every year lol.

Ontop of that I'm a Lahori by birth, We are the city that literally created our own idioms
Sydney is boring as hell. Melbourne and brisbane are much better.Good stuff man. I was in Sydney recently for a Fred Again gig. Beautiful city …but yes, nothing beats Lahore.
Haven’t really spent heaps of time in Sydney so I can’t comment but it’s a cool place. But yeah Lahore Lahore aey
If you pitched it full, you might as well call an Uber to retrieve the ball when bowling to Razzler at the back end. He used to send them
