Re: Pakistan v India - ICC WT20 2012 Super 8 Match
I asked this before and want to ask again.
whats the rationale behind asking India to chase. Toss was inconsequential for us today as we wanted to chase anyways and hafeez did exactly that for us.
I mean we were playing an extra batsman , so we were already planning for a big chase. and India is kinda in form for chasing scores.
If hafeez wanted to make us chase a big score then why did he play the way he did.
With that frustrating warm up match it was proven that we can score big but we cant protect a huge target.

And also why play Ukmal so low. he is an excellent young batsman , he should be playing at 4. Afridi is just a walking wicket, sending afridi at 3 is a big gamble which rarely pays off. Malik should be 3.
team should evolve in to its natural order by now.

So what … they lost and ???
Duniya still revolving around the sun i guess …
They should rather Think about how to build a platform for a successful team that can dominate CRICKET as such … Me talking about Pace bowlers having Pace and Batsmen being Batsmen and hit and miss happy go lucky adventurers … and yes they need that self-belief of being able to escape from every hole their batsmen or bowlers dug for them
BUT that the mindset needs a different environment and a different society … Apni madad aap and don’t look elsewhere … expose urself to such hardship/training that what others consider difficult for u it becomes daily routine
Re: Pakistan v India - ICC WT20 2012 Super 8 Match
Exactly basically our captain is like the gaalis ka captain bowling bhe khud karni hai pehle aur batting bhe…Nasir and Nazir should open and then Malik at 3 with Umar at 4 which is our best batsman then Hafeez should come but Professor hai bhai cricket ko read krta hai bhut zyada
Re: Pakistan v India - ICC WT20 2012 Super 8 Match
oh really ???
mazhar majeed called u already ???
I think Aus will thrash Pakistan and India will eventually beat saffers and make it to SF vs. Sri Lanka (probably topping the other Pool) with England going through and facing the Aussies … An Australia vs. Sri Lanka Final looms
Re: Pakistan v India - ICC WT20 2012 Super 8 Match
I think captaincy plays a big part in losses to India. Pakistani captains go on the defense even from the start. Hafeez made the same mistake Misbah and earlier captains made. With the bowling lineup we have they should be attacking but they choose to patrol boundaries instead.
Re: Pakistan v India - ICC WT20 2012 Super 8 Match
Indians showed again today that unless there is fire below their @$$es, they do not bring their best cricket to the field. I expect that we will beat the Saffies and go through to the semis.
Re: Pakistan v India - ICC WT20 2012 Super 8 Match
Can someone please explain to me:
a) What is Hafeez ‘Professor’ off
b) What so special about Yasir Arafat (he is another bits and pieces player). Some one like Razak should have played, instead of this club level cricketer.
