Umar Akmal's Batting Position

Re: Umar Akmal’s Batting Position

I was talking about KP not UA. As for batting positions UA had ample opportunities in the last two matches to show his flair. In the first ODI he fluffed the chance and in the second one he played brilliantly but could not finish the job. Yes he should come higher in batting position, to see if he can do justice to his talent. No one is responsible for his current predicament apart from UA himself. If he had applied himself when he was given the chance instead of playing silly shots and getting out than it would have been a different story. As I have always said he has talent but putting that to good and valuable use for the team has been sorely lacking.

29.6

 Briggs to Umar Akmal, OUT, 89.3 kph, down the pitch, in the air, he hasn't caught this properly and **holed out to long off.**  Didn't get to the pitch, still tried to lift the ball over the fence  and paid the penalty, a simple chance for Dernbach coming in a couple of  yards from the fence  




 **Umar Akmal c Dernbach b Briggs 12 (21b 1x4 0x6) SR: 57.14  **

Proves my point yet again.
