Which of the 5 World Cup debutants (if they get a chance to play) will excel in the event?

[MenInG]

I have a feeling that Azam Khan may defy all his critics (but secretly I am hoping for a Saim miracle)

 

[daytrader]

I think Abrar has the best chance as there is still an unknown factor to him. I don’t he will get to play all the games though as recently the team's started playing 4 pacers. Hopefully that experiment is short lived as imo 4 pacers would be an overkill. A proper spinner adds a dimension to the attack of which we've been missing for about 10 years or so. A 4 man bowling attack with 3 very good pacers + a genuine spin option. That's 16 overs of threat. Add in 2-3 part time spinners to bowl the remaining 4, some being new ball specialists. Come to think of it, this Pakistani attack is starting to looking scary

 

[BouncerGuy]

I guess Abrar should do better than all of them. Then I will say Azam because did well in CPL. Saim also has experience of Caribbean conditions so these 3 are the guys to look out for. The other 2 might not even get a chance to play so.

 

[RidiculousMan]

One and only Saim Ayub

 

[MANU ROY]

That Harry Potter guy not this guy in the sticker the other potter

 

[MANU ROY]

One and only Saim Ayub

He might struggle maybe he surprises India let's wait the wc

 

[emranabbas]

To be fair all 5 of these players have potential and are the future of pakistan, the team should be built around these 5 players and not around babar, rizwan, shadab and iftikhar

 

[mominsaigol]

Abrar 100%. I can tell who's quality and who isn't. It's why I kept saying don't let usama mir psl stats fool you. Abrar has one thing that our other spinners like Imad, Shadab, Usama, Nawaz etc lack and that's actually being able to spin the ball + variation. Dude can spin on pindi pitches, Huge huge Shame that Bobby didn't play him against Ireland on proper spin pitches.

As for saim, Eh.

Usman khan idk, he dances too much abound the crease, no stable footwork, tries to play everything on the backfoot, in terms of front foot just comes across the crease. He's kinda ugly looking, khair we'll see because ugly batters have shown insane success. I remember when I first saw maxwell I thought dude was average cause he feels more like a tennis and hockey player then a batter but boy was I wrong.

Azam is a proper minnow basher, clueless against semi decent bowlers, horrible keeper.

Abass afridi is a run machine, tbf he can be a gun PP overs 7-15 bowler

 

[FearlessRoar]

Usman Khan and Abrar Ahmed, i wish them success

Umm no, you can make a case for saim and Usman.

Abrar defo is the new star spinner.

Azam Khan due to fitness will go the haris sohail route. As for abass afridi, he ain't making it.

Azam khan somewhat 50/50 still has more potential than iftikhar as a power hitter

You can't write off abbas afridi after 9 games when he's taken 16 wickets at at average of 16

Not 50/50, 100%. Chacha isn't a power hitter, nor is he even a player. Whoever thinks he is, must get their eyes examined. Dude barely has the reactions to function. Only in Pakistan can such a player be allowed to play( Misbah reincarnation lol).

Abass is good but he's expensive. Very very expensive. He's wicket taking tbf.

so no shadab, no chacha, no azam, and fakhar you want at opening, rizwan shouldn't be in the team who would you play from the current squad in the middle order?

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Abrar and Abbas to an extent perhaps.

 

[mominsaigol]

No one, I gave people my squad in the t20 World Cup squad thread.

That is my squad. Idrc about this squad.

 

[moghul]

No chance for Usman and Azam , other 3 can do it.

Usman with hardly any FC experience behind him, is not a proper batsman, just a tullay baaz who can be successful at domestic level T20 but not at international level.

 

[hassan918]

I still think Saim will do well in the upcoming T20 World Cup. He has great record playing in the CPL.
