It was inevitable i guess. Hopefully now you people on this forum will realise with what i have been saying. Mod’s don’t delete this topic as it will be perfectly legitimate.
England showed they were a class above Pakistan throughout this series. I know many of you are blaming the inuries to asif and akhtar but you have to remember England had there two biggest drawcards out in captain Vaughan and Flintoff. So the injuries were evenly balanced between the two teams.
My favourite player as all you know is Shahid Afridi. Unfortunately he was dropped during the series. I will remain to my argument that the importance of him and shoaib akhtar in the team is essential if Pakistan want to become to the worlds best. Afridi and Akhtar and powerful players who can win a game in 10 minutes. Although i feel Pakistan have gone back into their shell with the sacking of Afridi. Do not ask him to change his style, because cricket is about scoring runs not just edging it to the keeper like the rest. Also i can not understand how you can play sami ahead of Afridi. Sad day and the biggest drawcard in world cricket is out of the team again.
Thankyou peoples, it has been a delight. I said 2 nil to England and i think thats how it will finish. With Pakistan having a strong fightback to restore some pride in the next test, but the Poms hanging on for a draw.
Once again i will say you need an attacking captain. I feel this should be Younis Khan or Afridi. Why not try something, since nothing is working for you guys?
Inzi should be at 3, he is the best batsmen in the team, younis would make a good opener and so would yousuf youhana.
But hey what would i know, i only predicted an england win and for Pakistan to be in this situation. Call me a lunatic but everything i have said has mostly been right, and maybe you guys should take notice.
Younis would make a great captain. But Inzamam has some qualities that PK team really need. He really knows how to keep the team united which is very imp.
Afridi being a captain - he is a wonderful player but he is very aggressive when it comes to deal with other team mates.
Younis opening the match might work. Maybe they should try it.
sorry eshan but u predicted a pakistani win. I predicted an England win. You are far off at the moment so i think my opinions hold more truth than yours..
This team could be a worlds best instead of a good but inconsistent unit.
Younis Khan (vc)
Yousuf Youhana
Inzamam Ul Haq
Kamran Akmal
Faisal Iqbal
Shahid Afridi (c)
Abdul Razzaq
Shoaib Akhtar
The rest won't play a vital role so put them in at your own views.
Inzamam has to be at 3 because thats where the best batsmen plays. Sure Younis is good but he is not in the class of Inzy. Younis and Yousuf Youhana have good techniques and are ideal openers. Akmal is capable at 4, he has some lucious cover drives. Iqbal can consolidate and has the ability to play aggressive. Afridi is a matchwinner and simply will fire and win you the games. Razzaq needs to improve his batting and show more agression, to defensive, good bowling though and his there for that. Shoaib akhtar is underrated with the bat, clean hitter, provide little cameos and his bowling well pace troubles any batsmen. Asif's line and length is impressive and he is a vital part of the bowling attack. Afridi shall also play as the lone spinner. Kaneria did bowl well in last test but his test averages speak for themselves.
Agressive captaincy in Afridi can only be positive, many teams will fear. Akhtars pace scares anyone. Hence, stay defensive and continue to be inconsistent. Make these changes and you will realise your nations cricketing ability.
Yes but I am here all the time, you run away when your predicitons don't come true. Remember England was going to thrash Pakistan in Pakistan. Why didnt you coem and open a thread when you were proved wrong. Your opinions count for nought.
Pakistan will win the one day series 3-2. If Pakis lose test series they win the ODI series and vice versa, especially if we have our whole squad fit i.e both Shoaibs and Asif.
guys wait up what the hell are you talking about inzzy no 3 younis has done nothing wrong. inzzy is out of form but if he clicks theres no 1 better. look at his average at 3 then at 5 and you would keep him there. as for asif and akhtar what about jones and flintoff.
what i will say is that pakistan will win the one day series. and inzi will lead them and will be the man of the series. all the pkisatn fans start to go negative after a couple of defeats. we will win the world cup.
ps afridi is ****. he is to unpredictable as abatsman but as abowler he should get in.
