I think we need to be realistic and lower our expectations based on the team's performance in the last year
(Inc. the Windies game) Pak has won ONLY 2 of it's last 14 ODI games. There is a reason why we are ranked 7th in this format
It is not the defeat but the manner of defeat that is so shocking and disappointing, like the meek surrender against Windies; no fight, no passion, no discipline in the field or with the bat
Agree, it was so painful to watch them not even try.
These armchair critics especially shoaib, how many times he sat out because of his ego or other problems when Pakistan needed him. Aa jatey hain munh utha kay. I remember during one series against England the decisive one day was at edgbaston. The guy was out partying the night before and was so drunk that he made a tamasha of himself on broad street in Birmingham and the result was that he was unfit to play the next day because of his drunkness. Ainay mein dekhein phir baat karein. No doubt he was a great bowler but his ego and discpline left a lot to be desired.
I don't even pay attention to these ex players, esp the case of Shoaib is that of chhaj bolay to bolay chhalni bhi bolay jis may sau chhed. Shoaib himself spent his career wandering around, fake injuries then found jet-skiing and what not. I believe Misbah is still the best thing that happened to Pakistan cricket, unfortunately PCB was still the same corrupt, nepotist organization otherwise we could've achieved much more.
