CORRECTION: The match is not vs SA, but Oppenheimer XI
Our batting lineup shows cracks against better teams. Against Zimbabwe Saleem Elahi, Faisal Iqbal, Taufeeq Umer, Younis Khan showed some batting, but on faster wickets, against better teams they are unable to show their “talent”, why?

Welcome back Abdur Razzaq, a good all rounder was missing from our team. Mohammad Sami has shown some batting talent, I think he should be promoted above Rashid Latif and perhaps above Shahid Afridi too.
M Sami seems to pretty effective on SA pitches. As I said when a lot of ppl complained our bowling sucked in ZIM, here you go guys. :)

Man this is first match yaar, let them settle down These pitchs are always tricker to bat on and t takes time to settle down. Good scores in Zimbabwe didntt mean they will start scoring right away in south africa.
plus Faisal played decently for his 31. And your comment about mohammad Sami was very hilariuos
P.S: Koi Allah Ka Banda SA matches online telecast kaar sakta hai??
yaar Question..Bhai tenu Allah de Kasam..janee please match dekha day..or atleast guide ehsan (a.k.a lethal moderator) to broadcast these matches..i read he offered his services!!
Hai!! rozaa laag raha hai!!..pakoraay yaad aa rahay hain!!
Maybe he persisted with Afridi becuz of bad light otherwise match would have drawn earlier!

Saby bhai Afridi was on one end and M. Zahid was on the other end if he did not wanted Sami to replace with Afridi due to bad light he could have replaced Afridi with Razaq and it was the last wicket. What a pathetic brain he has zang lag gia hai uske brain ko.

I would broadcast if dishnetwork shows the matches but I think Ehsan bhi will be able to do it for us too and I even offer to provide a TV tunner card to make it more easy.
