Nikhil_cric Posted November 7, 2022 Posted November 7, 2022 Pakistan need to resolve their top 3 issues. It's been absolutely minnow level in this tournament. However, from 4 to 7 in batting and their terrific bowling attack have made them quite a scary side. If they get more impetus from their top order, they will be damn near impossible to beat.

It does not work like that, if top order fires their middle order will flop. Edited November 7, 2022 by putrevus Nash 1

One freak innings and one good innings are needed to get above par score. Bowling is very important. No matter what score it is bowling has to fire. Pakistan has some good bowling attack compare to other three and india has worst bowling attack.
Nash Posted November 7, 2022 Posted November 7, 2022 The only way to win next two games are batting first. Score 180. Some good bowling from us and pressure will do the rest. if we bats second and have to score 170. It will be difficult. Hope our batting and bowling and fielding g and captaincy clicks for next two matches. coffee_rules 1
the don Posted November 7, 2022 Posted November 7, 2022 I know there is no second place in tournaments, but Pakistan has been the most consistent side in the t20 format. Six semifinals.

Six semifinals. And that's it. Nothing more needs to be said. The fact that this backdoor entry counts in your SF record says it all....WI have 2 trophies and they are by far the best T20I side historically as a result. Pakistan also had the shortest reign as T20 champions....less than a year from 2009 to the following year less than 10 months later when Hussey owned Ajmal into oblivion. These are T20 stats excluding minnows: And bear in mind, Pak is the only major side which plays full strength sides in T20 bilaterals.

Do you call Windies the gest side for winning 2 T20 World Cups? Of course not.

It is only the World Cups that matter in T20, no side other than Pakistan and minnows gives a crap about bilateral t20s...which is why likes of SA play Magala Blizzard and co. in bilaterals.

Show up where? And please define usually lol. Pak have made the SFs 2 more times, so what? One of them is this where they relied on Netherlands beating SA LOL! They have made the same number of finals as India and have the same trophies. India won it first and by spanking Pak.

I don't think so, Indian fast bowling attack has been better than expected. Bhuvi and co have been more than decent. I have to give it to young Arshdeep he has been swinging ball both ways. The only thing which Pakistan has better is their leg spinner who is a dynamite player. When combined with batting Indian is on par with any other team. Why do you think that freak innings cannot be played an Indian batsmen. Why so much negatitivity.

They chased down total in semifinals. Once their total became 330 plus, it became very difficult.

R!TTER Posted November 7, 2022 Posted November 7, 2022 It was a brain dead decision to say the least - Pak is the worst chasing side among top 8 regular test teams & it's not even close!

Have not won chasing against Pakistan before. SL chased 320 plus against India at Oval in that CT itself .That also played a vital role in opting to chase. If it was 250 plus total they would have chased down easily.They would have never even reached 250 plus if Fakhar got out instead of that noball. So chasing was not wrong decision on that ground.They should have done lot better in that chase also.

When combined with batting Indian is on par with any other team. Why do you think that freak innings cannot be played an Indian batsmen. Why so much negatitivity. If there is no swing then Bhuvi is liability. Our team can counter it well with Rohit when there is no swing. Arshdeep can still survive without swing, he has good yorker. The problem with Bhuvi is he is not attacking the stump enough. And he is doing that because he is afraid of leaking runs. Shami is ok but he is being expensive usually in T20. Austrilian pitches required two set of balls. One who can swing, which is covered in our team. But when there is no movement then we lack a good hitting the deck hard type of bowler. These bowler generates bonce and upward movement. Shami is doing it but he is not the best one we have. Our best best is getting ready for IPL. Aka Bumrah. Our spinners are no show. I dont see why cnt' we play hooda inplace of axar. He is good bat and way better than Axar. About freak innins of india, we need someone fearless like Surya. KL is deer caught in light. Rohit is slow until he plays 25 balls . Then he becomes an explosive batsman. The problem with australian pitches are , there can be wicket on any ball. So playing 25 balls is not an easy task for batsman. you should keep hitting like Liton das and hope you survive for 20 balls. You can score 40 odd runs. I am not being negative. but i am trying to be as realistic as possible. Our hope is we perform good in two matches. I firmly belive that we can do it. Even KL can hit 50ball centure and he is due. Same with Rohit. he is due big one. Hope both shines in next two match.

I understand your concern, England also don't have many hit the deck bowlers.If England fire on all cylinders then there is nothing much any team can do. Nash 1

Showing up over the years? You need to win matches that actually matter to be considered as tournament team. Apart from 2009 and last year, even your group stage performances were hardly better than average. 2010, 2012 and 2022 qualifications were all based on a bit of luck and NRR advantage. You make it sound like Pakistan have dominated T20 world cups throughout.
Need4Speed Posted November 8, 2022 Posted November 8, 2022 (edited) Lets not forget Pak is in semis only due to Holland… Thiugh I find balance of Pak extremely good as compared to India however..I feel Haris Rauf has caused momentum shifts in middle overs..struggling against spin is nothing unusual..but Harus Rauf helps Pak spinners do well.. overcautious in first couple of overs is nothing unusual too..but they shudnt miss any hit me ball in the name of being cautious.. In case of India if we handle Rauf’s Middle overs well..you can put lot of pressure on Pak bowling.. This also means that SKY hasnt exploded yet against Pak..but he is due a big game changing knock against them provided we bear Eng and Pak beats NZ. Similarly,against Eng we need to handle Mark Wood who is causing all the diff..good thing is the match is not on bouncy wkts like Perth and Melbourne.. Edited November 8, 2022 by Need4Speed
