You were saying.
That includes the warm-up matches too .

Finally an Akmal free team. Good job even Shehzad needs to part ways from team until he gains his form. I still cant understand the choice of captain, a guy who till yesterday was not even a part of the team is the captain now. Does he even justify his position in team leave aside the captaincy?

 

[Super Falcon]

Good but why azhar ali odi captain it is again same mistake we do as we keep misbag azhar ali is also a defence mindset player I think PCB living in 70 era look in odi people like brendon mculun doing wonders he is not good technical batsman but his agression made him better and over come

 

[Jungibaaz]

Good, Akmal proved a wasted investment. So many years and batting ability, and he still hasn't matured as a batsman, brought down to 6th in the order and nothing to show for. Also, he's not a proper wicketkeeper.

Shehzad's got talent, but again not much to show for in recent performance.

Haris Sohail and Sarfaraz can both open well enough. Pakistan already needs more middle order batsman, we had 3 openers in the world cup, now with Misbah gone, only Mohammad Hafeez can play middle order. Maybe bring Fawad Alam back. But more middle order batsman is the need of the day.

Well come to Bangladesh we are ready to crush you like boil potato

Umar Gul is <30 years old.. oldies kahan se hogaya??? he is 2.5 years younger than Kamran and Shoaib, and also younger than Muhammad Irfan and Sohail Khan... PCB should not sideline UG..

and bring back Fawad Alam too..

 

[farhan_9909]

azhar ali average is 41 in batting

 

[Muhammad Omar]

azhar ali average is 41 in batting

it's good... But yeh loog afridi jese ko 19 saal dekh skte hain azhar ali ko chance ni de skte typical PAKISTANI

 

[Hurter]

Junior Misbah will lead the ODi squad who has no exceptional record in ODi.. Again a blunder by PCB. Umar Gul should be brought back. Shehzad can come back and prove himself if he wants to. But, dropping Umar Khatmal is the only good decision made by PCB.

 

[Nine Inch Nails]

Guys, don't forget to take a plastic trophy for bangladesh.

You have seen them cry, haven't you ?

Afridi ko 19 saal khilaya wo ghlat decision ni tha ? 23.23 avg jb batting achi hojai to batsmen jb bowling achi to bowler Dhoni k kitne records thay jb wo captain bna tha George Bailey k kitne record thy,,,??? Shehzad can come back and prove himself if he wants to??? IF HE WANTS to? usko selfies lene se firsat mile gi to game pe dehan dega na? Apne aap ko to wo Virat Kohli se b acha samjhta hai... 50 runs to us se hoty ni hain poore WC me 1 match me 93 kia wo b halki team k against wah bjao talian us k liye

Umar Gul is a waste of space rubbish bowler who keeps getting injured and goes missing in big games. He is a Mohali failure. No more of this nonsense.
