Pakistan Team Discussion

His boundary percentage in T20s is almost 20%. With three bowling options in the top 6, they can pick a specialist number 7. He's the new Asif Ali.

Yep, exactly.
Picked by Misbah for the Champions Cup, he's playing simply because good hitters are rare in Pakistan.

so despite previous indications that they weren't gonna play, both Babar Azam and Naseem Shah turned out for Lahore Blues yesterday in the National T20 Cup. It didn't matter much though, as Babar made 22 (17) and Naseem took 0/41 as they lost by 37 runs

I remember doing some kits or logos for one of the older Big Ant games and being completely baffled about why the names and colours did not match for teams like this.

right, this inspired me to look at the kits for all the colour-named teams:

Lahore Blues - Red
Karachi Whites - Blue
Karachi Blues - Purple
Lahore Whites - Green

credit where credit is due tho, the coverage of this National T20 Cup is excellent. livestream on YT with English and Urdu comms, all camera angles, scorecard graphics, multiple highlight packages, basically everything you would expect from a PSL match.
