everyone knows “KEY TO SUCCESS” against pakistan is just wining the toss.
well almost 75% matches pakistan lose if the target is more than 230 some cases less than that..
wat they shud do is host other tough countries like australia ,south africa,srilanka to pakistan for 5 one dayers ..and pakistan knows if the opponenet wins the toos its no doubt thr gonna bat..
well pakistan even if they win the toss they shud elect bowling 1st .. and they shud practice more on target chasing with these teams ..doesnt matter if they sacrifice a few matches ..like 15-20 matches will do it ..i mean chasing in all..who knows that wud be helpful for the pak side for the upcomming world cup..
they shud atleast have 15-25 chasing targets and big ones 250+..
i shud become the cricket coach
One thing that Pak needs to do when chasing totals is that send anyone except Afridi and bring Afridi in 4th or 5th, in that way he could stay till the end and increase the run rate, because when you chasing a total which is 250+, you shouldn't start out by hitting sixes instead you need to send batsman who can keep the wickets for the first 15 overs and then bring in someone like Afridi who is really good at finding gaps.
What should Pakistan do while chasing a target?
How about batting 50 overs.
