Re: Yousaf Youhana appreciation thread

He’s one of the best in the world right now, and probably Pakistan’s best bat. But he can’t be compared to Miandad who was one of the all-time greats.

Anyway, I’ve rated him for a long time now so no problems with appreciating his talents :k:

5

A great asset to Pakistan cricket but he is no comparison to Miandad as yet.
He is more like a Tendulkar of Pakistan, who is mostly the best player in the team but never fires in big matches.

6

He's an excellent player. Can really drive the team out from tough situtions and that's what makes a great player.

7

Yes indeed...Yousaf Youhana is one of the best in the world. Very elegant to watch. If he works hard he can be one of the best batsmen of all time.

8

Excellent player. The youngsters can learn a lot from him. He is hardworking. Elegant batsman, very good fielder and very good attitude unlike our ** “super stars” ** he doesn’t get involved in controversial situations. I like the way he paces his innings. Most of the time he starts of slow, very watchfully. Then after he has the eye set he launches into the bowling attack.

It feels weird to actually agree with ChthonicPowers after our long arguments in the Razzaq thread. :slight_smile:

hes a great player....no doubt bout that
as far as the comparison wit miandad is concerned....he cudve got there if he was tried out earlier.....he came in pretty late
nyway.....hes an excellent player!
ill never forget the six he hit on the last ball against india.....he was on 94....that was really great!
n off the field.....hes a pretty decent guy...!!

Yoyo is pure class. He dropped so many catches on his debut - I hated him for that. Who would've known he would become such a good player.

He still needs to go some major distance before becoming the next Miandad. but he has it in him to do if he becomes more consistent.

11

gd stuff! i dint knew he was so consistent. to have an ave. of over 53 for 2 yrs is quite an achievement. he also figures in both the odi and test lists. kudos to him.

:jhanda:

12

He is a very good player but I would like you people to remind me some innings when he really won us games while chasing ?

13

Yo Yo is da man, Yo.:jhanda:

14

I guess there are not many such innings which I'm talking about ;)

Youhana is probably my favourite player in this team though his performance in this series really disappointed me. Not because he didn't perform but because he performed mainly in lost causes. There are many players in the world known for playing like champions when the game's lost and I don't want Youhana to become one of them.

I still have a lot of confidence in him. He's too good a player to let this lean patch last for long.

17

Are u guyz kidding me...masi is the most selfish player out there...i cant recall any innings from him lately in which he saved pakistan from defeat. just take the last test for example, when a crucial partnership with asim was needed, he just threw away his wicket. trust me, hez just after the captaincy

18

he plays for his own self....
very rarely does he play for the team....
no wonder people call him "ghadaar"....

19

he deserves some extra care coz he’s christian and a minority

we love u yusuf bhai :k: :jhanda:

Ramiz Raja on Yousaf Youhana:

…lashed out at Pakistan vice captain Yousuf Youhana for playing for personal milestones than the team.

“There was also Yousuf Youhana, who seemed to come into his own only when there was nothing but personal milestones to play for. When he reached 48 today you knew that he was thinking of having a good knockabout when nothing was left in the game,”
