This AMIR fellow can bowl ehh? Wonder what that fool Yahya Hussain will yap about now?[DOUBLEPOST=1559306612][/DOUBLEPOST]A couple of wickets here and WI are capable of doing their own version of Pakistan!
 
What the hell. So glad i slept through it. Seriously, you left out Asif Ali? I mean, today he wasn't gonna do anything, but what kind of mindset is that? Sarfraz said he was gonna bat at 5, but he's back at 6. Wahab Riaz picked out of nowhere. Your best performing bowler in the last year and best middle order batsman, who could've at least saved the NRR, Shaheen and Malik on the bench.
I honestly thought that this management team was more professional than this, but this is the same old crap. Inzi's responsible too for Wahab's selection.
There are gonna be people who say "No need to worry, we'll bounce back like '92/'09/'17". Yeah, but what if this ends up like 2003? We had a similar format then. Hopefully the team isn't in that mindset., because it's a stupid way to think. The problems need to be fixed, not left to chance, for us to succeed.
This team is still stuck in the pre-WC series and thought they could smash it all over the park and make 350, but they need to adjust to the particular surface (i haven't seen the match, so i'm presuming that the conditons weren't totally batting friendly). There are 8 games left, so no need to panic.

Seriously, this guy has a short ball fetish. Gets smashed, doesn't even try to change the lenght.

I think Junaid should have been picked ahead of Wahab and I would have definitely picked Wahab in place of Hasnain. This is my opinion. I wouldn't bother starting with Wahab in the XI but as a back up to Junaid.

My issue with Pakistan is that they again picked the XI today with a defensive mindset. Sarfaraz is good enough to bat at 4, in fact, he is not capable of being a 'finisher.' He is a very busy batter and probably one of the best people to have in the middle of the innings. Malik at 5 and Asif at 6.
