2022 ICC Men's T20 World Cup - Australia

[RUDI]

Sad to say: Pakistan is too reliant on Rizwan and Azam firing.

Congratulations team Zimbabwe!

Need to win 3 out of 3 while RSA and ZIM lose a match each. Preferably to...

Even if the latter does miraculously happen, I doubt we can get 3/3 when one of our games is against RSA. Gonna need to muster up all our energy against the Netherlands and Bangladesh, so doubt we're beating Proteas lol.

Our World Cup is FINISHED.

I mean I never said its an easy road ahead. Even Bangladesh on their day can turn up and be a force to reckon with. Losing hope this early wont do any good. The abuse people are throwing is unfair as well. I get it that you were beat by a team below your T20 rankings, I get losing to India is never an option but this is almost the same team that reached semi-finals last year.

I am really worried about @CerealKiller .. I hope he is ok. Kiddo gets too emotional!

Gets way too over confident and is one of most obnoxious commentator

I will not accept a single bad word about bazid. I get why people don't like him, but to put him in the same class was Sanjay and ather is not fair. Bazid is always laid back on his approach to commentary and his jokes are always hilarious, again I get why some people don't like his jokes but I find them hilarious

I am not sure if this was sarcastic or serious!

Oh I'm 100% serious... I've always defended Bazid since day 1.

Is there any attacking keeper batsman in the domestic ranks in Pakistan? I reckon Pakistan cannot afford to play both Babar and Rizwan in the same T20 team.

I would actually boot both of them and get Fakhan Zaman and Shan Masood/Sharjeel to open and maybe Shahdab can lead the team... At least he has an attacking mentality that is required in the T20 team. Now, if Pakistan can find an attacking keeper batsman, things can be looked forward.

Fakhar Zaman
Sharjeel Khan
Shan Masood
Iftikhar Ahmed
Khushdil/Asif
Nawaz
WK
Shahdab (c)
Shaheen
Naseem/Wasim
Haris Rauf

Looks like I missed out on a banger of a match.

Zimbabwe looking like a few of those lower ranked sides (Afghanistan, Scotland, Netherlands and Ireland); a bowling attack that can compete but a fragile batting line up that is reliant on two or three players performing. Regardless of final result, the bowlers have done a great job keeping them in this.

Feels like every T20 analyst worth a dime has come up with the same plan on how to best utilise resources with what they have.

A common thread linking all of these lower ranked sides (I would happily add Bangladesh to this list) seems to be a good pace unit that has variety, a finger spinner or two and a solid and unambitious batting order.

You then look at a side like Sri Lanka that you can call as a firmly mid-tier side and you see the differences in them having a hitter in top order, one in the middle order and attacking spin options. West Indies until recently possessed all of this too and the side they brought to this WC lacked the latter and arguably the former too with Pooran and Mayers both being out of form.

There are a few exceptions to this too as Scotland have a Munsey in the top order to go ham, Namibia have Wiese and Smit in the middle order and Afghanistan have attacking spin options and Gurbaz in the top order (arguably Najibullah in the middle order also counts for something). But in general it seems like a solid strategy to start from and I wouldn’t be surprised if we see more sides do this as T20Is become more popular.
