Pakistan Team Discussion

What the hell more does Hurraira have to do?

Probably scored some actual runs in the last year - in the QeA he scored less than 500 runs at an average of 33 ish in 15 innings. Hardly worth an international ticket at the moment. He almost got outscored by Ahmed Shehzad with fewer innings as well.

My hatred for Faheem Ashraf's inclusion is massive.

And even after that season where he was merely average, Hurraira (aged only 21) averages 57 in first-class cricket with eight tons including a triple. This is someone who knows how to make big runs.

Ah yes, let’s get a known chucker to coach our spinners, what could go wrong?

It’s like they’re going through the early 2010s lineups and picking players for positions with the national team or selection committee

Waiting for Kamran Akmal as wicketkeeper coach.

Maybe he will do press training.

Shahid Afridi for Power hitting coach

Shoaib Akhtar as mental conditioning coach

 

[Na Maloom Afraad]

Maybe he will do press training.

Nah, that's reserved Abdul Razzaq.

 

[icyman]

The simplest thing for them to do is this:

Younis Khan (Director/ Head Coach)

The rest will fall in order. Just give him a 4 year term, irrespective of the results!

So Rauf never actually agreed to the possibility of even appearing for the Aussie tests.

Wahab is off to a banging start as a selector.

Of course, no one will read Cricinfo, and the masses will just pile on Rauf on the back of his World Cup performance.

Even IF Rauf did drop out last minute, I don't see the problem with that. He has played just one test, is probably not needed or good enough for test series anyway and every player has a right to drop out of tours for various reasons. It happens a lot across the globe, only in Pakistan is it seen as some massive betrayal and the media is nasty enough to keep pushing this narrative for their own gain.
