India is we pick right then india easily.

 

If selections are correct, 2023 wc is ours. He'll we can win t20 in Australia. We can definitely beat our sons there. 

[Lone Wolf]

I'll take Chameera over Taskin.  Answer is Rest of Asia easily. 

[Adamant]

Rest of Asia, this Indian team is nothing special with an out of form Kohli. 

 

If Kohli doesn't come back to form then we will be kicked out of all the upcoming world cups and tourneys even with Rohit as captain. 

 

 

The youngsters are good but they aren't a patch on peak Kohli. 

 

A billion hopes resting on one man..... Yet again

actually rohit have been better then kohli in odi in last few yrs

also need to get out of this mindset of individuals, need to build a unit rather focusing on individuals 

[ShoonyaSifar]

Pick three oldies at the top along with washed up Bhuvi and Chahal and we start with less than 25-30% chances of a win irrespective of any side away from home (NZ, Aus, SA series losses)

 

Rohit is the captain so he has to play. Replace the other two with any two young players, we will win 65-70% of our matches anywhere in the world

Rohit hasn't played much odi cricket since 2019,  so he can't be better than Kohli or anyone else without playing, also post 2019 due to covid and t20 world cup odi cricket hasn't been played much.

Secondly Rohit was better than Kohli in 2019 keeping his world cup performance in mind, actually even in 2019 Kohli outscored him in Odis. 

 

If individuals are like Pant, Kohli, Bumrah, Rohit then they need specialized attention. 

They are rare players, you can't just let go of them

Bhai you are the type of guy who changes his stance more times than a chameleon changes his color. 

Let alone bookmark, you won't even  keep this in your memory for a Pico second. 

 

You might be arguing against this the next week, that's how volatile your thinking is. 

 

Bookmark, Maaf kardo yaar.

Don't worry if kohli steps out, India will win the WC. You will grow to like a new player instead of a dud like kohli. You will thank me for helping you become a fan of pandya who will win us the WC in 2023.

Given how much white ball talent is propping up in Pakistan these days, I dont think you are doing justice by grouping us in a rest of Asia xi.

 

I believe Pakistan is developing into one of the strongest white ball sides in the world right now and are on an upwards surge especially compared to India. 

 

In tests, there is still a fair way to go though. 

[daryl1985]

Rest of Asia XI, not even close.  

Good chance Pakistan beat India on their own.

Lol this looks like such a piss poor side. I wouldn't be surprised if India beats this team. But ofocurse I am talking about India actually picking their best side. With guys like kohli and chahal yes we have no chance.

Yes with nice throwers. Let's see though. Matter of time before india rebounds. If we get our **** together then watch out. Because you won't have kohli and chahal to bully anymore. 

 

When we have sky pant pandya as our MO we can be potent.

yes some quality talent is coming up but it takes years to build a reputation, in last 2 decades pakistan cricket reputation have gone to dogs due to various reason so it wont come up so easily. It takes years of good performances n consistency.

I hve been very impressed with the talent thats coming up - shafique, qasim akram, azam khan, mohd wasim jr, dahanai

Win one T20 game at a fluke venue where toss wins you 90% of the game and suddenly all this lmao... 

 

You guys lost... scratch that... got clean swept by an English sunday league side not too long back. Except Babar, none of your guys are world class in ODIs. Shaheen won't be the same bowler as he's in T20is as batsman can afford to play him around for 5 RPO.

 

Beating an Indian side (even if we play with washed ups like Bhuvi, Chahal, Pandey, Ashwin etc) in a 100 over game won't exactly be the same as winning a one off T20 game... unless of course a once in a lifetime fluke like the CT final.

they are on upwards- yes

strong side- no but can be consistent. Strong sides need runaway match winners ..i dnt see anyone apart from shaheen

 

White ball supermacy need match winners and match winners

Rizwan has done nothing in ODI cricket. I'd pick Liton over him any day of the week. 

 

Fakhar is a hack who will fail 4/5 times. I'd rather have Imam ul Haq opening for me over him.

 

Imam ul Haq

Liton Das

Babar Azam

Shakib Al Hasan

Mushfiqur Rahim

Charith Asalanka 

Wanindu Hasaranga

Rashid Khan

Shaheen Shah Afridi

Mustafizur Rahman

Mohammad Amir

 

This side will most definitely start as favourites against our dud/washed up oldie army. It's an absolute embarrassment that with all these IPL riches and the amount of resources we have, countries like Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Afghanistan can put together a white ball XI that can absolutely pummel us into submission...
