the day after..
we were always a bowler short. the latif guy shouldnt have played, we never even got to hafeez batting. Admittedly our batsmen havent historically done well enough to justify much confidence in them but really just one pacer is too little. Asif should’ve played. He is a superstar, I dont know why he isnt treated like one.
Other than that, no we didnt do much wrong. Ajmal is our best death bowler, and the only people second guessing him would never had done so before yesterday. The aussies couldnt hit him throughout the match, and there was no better bowler than him to bowl the last over.
hopefully the team can take positives from this. they were one part of what is being called one of the greatest t20 matches ever. even if you’re on the losing side, it takes one hell of a performance to do that.
Agree with you except for bowling Ajmal in the death overs. No matter how good your best spinner is, he should not really be bowling the last over for reasons that I have already mentioned above (Post#8)
