Unstable Joe Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 I mean, where else can you see a run rate like this? Link to comment
sandeep Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 Its like the Pakistani version of that old Keanu Reeves movie on the bus - if a Pakistani top order batsman bats at more than 110 SR, he may just explode. The exceptions that prove this rule are glorious hackabees like Imran Farhat, *her Zaman etc. Unstable Joe, philcric, NameGoesHere and 4 others 7 Link to comment

kosingh Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 Mongia and Prabhakar probably whining somewhere about how unfortunate they are to have missed out on PSL. Sgattick10 1 Link to comment
jusarrived Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 That same Ahmad shezad has 5 LOI intl hundreds and one in SA when pak won a series and one in NZ I think . Has still been in and out of the team , cos of his tuk tuk start and they prefer some one like fakar who plays with a lot more intent . A team like pak which has no batting talent can see this , on the other hand india continues to not just play it's Ahmed shezad , but has turned him into a star lol . flamy 1 Link to comment

Gollum Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 Their league, as long as they are happy why should we care? But in general all these T20 leagues are an abomination to cricket's great traditions. T20 has destroyed the soul of cricket. rahulrulezz and mancalledsting 2 Link to comment

IPL has its own fair share of issues. Not that I watch PSL, but I rather watch low scoring T20 games than your typical 200 run games. Link to comment

Honestly, with all the fault of Rohit failing In this series, Rohit is way ahead as a batsman in international cricket than Shahzad or any other opener around the world. He is up there with Warner even though Warmer has a higher strike rate. Rohit wih all the stick we give him, is one of the best in the world in ODI’s. Sgattick10 and Unstable Joe 2 Link to comment

By that logic , since we have Virat whos been carrying the batting for couple of years now , should we worry about who else is picked in the middle order ? imagine , WC final and Virat/Dhawan have an off day and the trophy is dependent on our Shehzad ?

Way ahead cos Pakistan chucked him out and hasnt had a regular spot in the 11 , my point was a team like Pak realized how his slow batting was killing the momentum and we still dont . Next only to warner ? So given a choice between Rohit and Dhawan , you would pick Rohit ? Link to comment

I will pick Dhawan overseas but in India, Rohit anyday since he can catch up on the runrate anytime even after a slow start and can hit daddy hundreds whoch sometimes you need in India, something Dhawan doesn’t do too often. Overall I would stick with both Rohit and Dhawan for World cup 2019. Rohit will do fine in England. Its a long tournament, I expect him to fire eventually even if he fails at the start of the tournament. Sgattick10 and Ankit_sharma03 2 Link to comment
