Haier Cup Pakistan - The Gold Standard - Under New Management

[AsadRM]

Actually scratch that. Seeing the overseas picks, I guess rather not.

We actually picked him as our backup specialist spinner so in case Qadir and Gohar aren't getting the job done, we can bring Rashid in.

But that would require a bold decision to drop an overseas star. We'll probably make changes based on form and conditions for that matter.

May be benching stokes for Rashid on your home turf might not be a bad idea

…and Asad said "I am sure you didn't do a sazish (ploy) taking the revenge of this year's KK vs LQ, but hey my mum says never trust strangers", questioning the draft order generator. :/

Yes, maybe.

And if we are in a very desperate situation, Haider Ali can always open with Azam Khan coming in at #4 replacing KL Rahul in the XI, and Adil Rashid becoming the 4th overseas player.

The thing I really like about our squad is the versatility of players. We easily have a couple of plans for every player and his possible replacement.

Yeah, let everyone know what your plans are before the tournament even begins.

I guess Samit Patel wasn’t available, otherwise it would’ve been their first pick

Unfortunately, he was busy in his grandfather's backyard fitness contest so couldn't be available.

We were ready to shell out a few billions on him.

Yes, because we want to give the opposition sides a chance to compete against us. Don't want to absolutely annihilate them, so that they refuse to play us in the next iteration. *Modern problems require modern solutions*

LQ fans when they realize Samit Patel isn't available nor is the man, the myth, the legend himself, the one and only Sohail Akhtar.

Karachi Kings:

Look at this line-up. Some real quality names with List A and Internation averages in the excess of 50 on a batting track - got a decent bolwing attack aswell.

1. David Warner
2. Quinton De Kock (Wk)
3. Joe Root
4. Fawad Alam
5. Umar Akmal
6. Danish Aziz
7. Qasim Akram
8. Hasan Ali
9. Josh Hazlewood
10. Mohammad Hasnain
11. Zahid Mahmood

Easily the best top order so far. On good days they will tear apart any bowling contingent. But what about the days when top order fails?
