Pakistan vs Australia - T20 World Cup Semi Final

:coffee: Australia & England are traditionally weaker against newly discovered Pakistani Bowlers as they have not had chance to study them yet with slow motion cameras, sometimes having a new bowler is an advantage vs Australia & England

It takes then 1-2 years to fully figure out a new talent which emerges in Pakistani Bowling department

They struggled greatly against Mohammad Amir in his year 17-20 year period when he was very natural and fast

  • Dhani's bowling appears to be very unpredictable and genuine pace
  • Wasim's bowling showed lot of control he was able to bowl exact same ball twice to take 2 wickets in video above and then completely bamboozle with third

Haider Ali is very traditional , hitter with bat looks. Fakar has had a quiet Group Stage with only 1 good showing in Practice warm up game, I think switching over will give Haider Ali chance to show what he can do


Hafeez & Hasan Ali are the two players under performing


Fakhar Zaman
> Did well 1 time in group matches specially vs South Africa who plays like Australia or England so it is good sign
> But in group stages really did disappoint

So he seems to be struggling handling pressure

Hafeez
>
Only scored 30 vs weak bowling attack
> Did not do well vs Newzeland /South Africa or West Indies

Hasan Ali
Average Display from Hasan Ali in bowling department

> Expensive vs South Africa 52 runs
> Expensive 44 runs given vs India while yes he did take 2 wickets

But in 5 group games below average performance

This is your coping mechanism? There are tons of memorable moments in T20 as well. There is a difference between Test games and T20 but your own personal memories is not one of them.
BTW Pakistan has a better record against India in Tests and ODI so what makes you think they can walk over Pakistan in a test match? Isn't that what Indian pandits were saying before the WC for T20? :laugh:
Wasn't being entirely super serious there but I will stand by that.. today, India are a far superior test playing side than the Pakistanis. Why ? .. they've done exceedingly well and won away series in England and Australia.

Can your lot win a test series in England or Aus ?

kar ke dihkao, fir !
 
My personal choice would be

a) Drop Hafeez , bring in Haider Ali @#4 Spot
b) Drop Hasan Ali (Bowler Out) bring in Wasim Junior (All Rounder)
c) Drop Fakhar bring in Shahnawaz Dhani


This Shahnawaz guy is good :big_boss:

Wasim Jnr ( 3 balls 3 wickets hatrick)

Wasim Jnr with bat (Good footwork and knows how to score fast)

Rizwan (Opener)
Babar (Opener)
Haider Ali (1 Down)
Wasim Junior (4th) (All Rounder/Fast)
Shoaib Malik (5th)
Asif Ali (6th)
Shadab Khan (7th) (Spin)
Imad Wasim (8th) (Spin)
Haris Rauf (9th) (Fast Bowler)
Shahnawaz Dhani 10th (Fast Bowler)
Shaheen Shah Afridi 11th (Fast Bowler)





Shaheen + Haris + Dhani + Wasim Jnr = Cracking Rude game for Australia they won't know what hit them

:coffee: Australians would be coming to game with plan for Hasan Ali or Shaheen , however if we put 4 fast bowlers it would create bit of "uncertainty" for Australians as they may not have seen Dhani before

1) Hafeez has been chipping good with the bat. He also can bowl decently.
2) Ideal time to drop Hassan was after Afghanistan's match! Waseem Jnr. could have been tested. But now it wont be recommended.
3) Dahani cannot play. Someone from Pakistan needs to be injured for him to be eligible. Dahani is part of reserve group not the 15 member squad!

Wasim Akram has made the point about Dahani clear several times in his show on ATV!
 
It is not necessary for anyone to have this T20 world cup, but Pakistan desperately needs it to conclude 20 years of great efforts to bring peace to the nation. Play well and keep the spirit of sport high. Though there is a high probability of winning, losing is part of the game.

Look at the moment the flavour of the month is 20/20 and India was annihilated by Pakistan.
India hasnt played against Pakistan at test cricket for a long time - how can you judge who is better?
India have won a couple of matches in Australia and England and little Indians like you are having orgasms of pleasure suggesting your team is a world champion.

Lets concentrate on recent events. I know Indians find it difficult to absorb but your team got thrashed and were caught short. Your team looked tired inadequate out of date and basically 2nd rate.

Now park your side to one side - look at the title and either discuss Pak v Aus and dont lower the tone by bringing a team into the debate that has already been knocked out.....
 
ODI is boring, imo t20 is the future, fast pace, idk how anyone even enjoys to watch test, most boring shit I’ve ever seen, cricket in general is shit but test and odi don’t make it any more enjoyable
No mate Test match have their own flavour, T20 and ODI are okay but a test match on a good changing pitch is a marvel to watch.

That too despite india being MORE than 7x bigger than Pakistan and controlling cricket itself............ :azn:..........whereas cricket is a dying sport in Pakistan and teams didn't play in Pakistan for over 12 years and hardly do now.........:azn:

Losing to a tiny nation such as NZ was even more humiliating.
 
Drop Fakhar and Hasan Ali. Its like playing with 9 players rather 11. Since Babar did not try new combinations so looks like these 2 will be playing tomorrow. There is 45% chance for Pakistan to win tomorrow's game and 90% for Fakhar and Hasan to fail again.

Dont agree bro. In a team you always have people that perform and some that dont. The team of 11 players have got us this far and its unwise to introduce changes. These 2 players are good team players and im sure will perform and produce. Only a matter of time.

What relevance is a win in England or Aus if the match is between Pakistan and India? Unless you want them to play the match in Aus or England.

overseas wins, overseas test series wins.. spl when you're a subcontinent team and do it in Aus/Eng etc

that's a very big deal

look, India flopped bad in this 20 cricket world cup, fine

but otherwise it's a zabardast squad, we really are ekdum.. number one !
 
Reports coming in that Malik and Rizwan suffering from flu, they didn't practice today. Doc will examine them tomorrow before the game to see if they are fit for play. Covid tests came back negative.

If cant play then Sarfraz and Haider will replace them.
