yeah Rameez Aziz and Younis Khan batting together in an ODI. one single every three overs with a lot of plays and misses in between - the stuff dreams are made of...
I don't get how Younis had the gall to drop Yousuf and then Malik when he was captain... I thought Younis was being Younis. but now even Yousuf dropped Malik. is he blind? as someone who understands how one is supposed to bat in ODIs surely he must know that Malik is the only player apart from Yousuf himself who knows how to bat properly in ODIs.
I like this though. Malik gets a couple of innings wrong and out he goes. Afridi does nothing for years. no problem. just keep on giving him chances... and after five years, he find a little bit of form and voila, he is the main captaincy contender. Malik gets a few matches wrong and out he goes. similarly, Younis (I don't doubt his class as a batsman) does nothing in ODIs for so long... but everyone around him is dropped but not him. remarkable...
I must say that I've never been this confused as a Pak fan/arm chair expert.
Didn't Malik drop Yousuf after which he joined ICL? Could it be the return of favor (partial)?
