Looks like Sarfaraz is really taking all this stuff to his heart.

Sometimes, it can be hard not to.

Google Translate has lost it. Who's Johnny?

The actual poetry isn't all that bad tbf, but freakin' hell

Can you say what exactly he said ?

That'd be a little difficult even for me to translate (and that's my first tongue), but I'll try. @CerealKiller can correct me if I'm wrong.

"I've started to pierce (hurt/wound) everyone, tho I'm not a knife.

They say all this about me, tho I'm not all that"

Right, Talha?

No I meant say it in Urdu, I understand Urdu but unable to read it's scriptures/writing/font

Itna chubhne laga hoon sab ko churra toh nahi
Jaani, woh jitna batate mere baare mein, mein utna bura bhi nahi

The poetry gets kinda lost in translation but still, here is the literal translation:

I've started hurting/wounding them, even though I'm not a dagger
Friend, the way they talk about me, I'm not that bad even

Pretty much the same as @Na Maloom Afraad's translation

It is clearly a reply to the backlash he received, due to the missed stumping of Moeen Ali.

PCB should've gone with Dean Jones as the head coach instead of Misbah Ul Haq. We need the former's attitude in the team, not the latter's stubbornness.

Dean Jones would've been a great appointment.
Shouldn't have gotten rid of Mickey Arthur in the first place tbh.

The biggest six Sarfaraz has hit in the last 3 years.

Yahya Hussaini, a renowned Journalist (God knows who made him a journalist), tweeted that Sarfaraz refused to captain Sindh in the last National T20 Cup as well as refused to play in the last T20 against England. Had Umar Akmal or Ahmad Shehzad did this, they would be reprimanded. Why does PCB have double-standards?

Sarfaraz replied with 'Na mein gira na meri umeedo'n ke meenar giray
Par kuch log mujhe girane mein baar baar giray'

Neither did I fall, nor my towers of hope,
Yet, some people fell trying to bring me down.

Sarfaraz seems to have hired some personal poets

I think Sarfaraz has morphed into Ghalib

 

[Yash.]

Sarfraz might be finding some alternate talents, in case Rizwan completely takes his place

 

[El Loco]

Yahya Hussaini is an absolute muppet he needs to pipe down.

Sarfaraz Ghalib be like: Waisay khelta nahi, magar aaj kal khelta hoon gham bhulane ke liye

Usually, I don't play, but these days I play so that I forget my sorrows.

Pakistan!

Former captain who kept wickets like a club cricketer washing his dirty laundry in public and a former fast bowler as usual talking about negotiations with the board on TV!!!

It's hilarious! At least it's highly entertaining.

Umar Gul - We need departmental cricket back in Pakistan

Honestly, I agree with Gul here. We can easily have a departmental tournament for players who don't make it in the 6 regional teams. Hundreds of good cricketers would again have means to make a decent living from the sport. They shouldn't be ignored.

I have heard it somewhere that PM Imran Khan doesn't agree with this. And he's the supreme authority...

It could be a rumor though.

Six teams just seems too small, Pakistan is no Australia and have a lot more cricketers. Eight would be fine is my guess.

Departmental cricket could serve the role of grade cricket in Australia if done right.
