Today innings showed why he is rated so highly Healy and Benaud. His straight sixes were treat to watch proper cricket shots no slogs.
it is just t20 on flat track..get over it even hafeez scored

Let them live in denial. It's fun when the dreams are shattered and the "kick/bring XYZ out/ in of team" threads are made once again :cantstop: Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Playing one odd inning does not make someone great. U Akmal played a good inning and so Hafeez, but what's special in that ? Even Afridi score once in 10 innings.

What is me or those straight sixes looked techincaly wrong. Foot was not near pitch of ball and he seemed to have weight more on back foot. Only good thing was good straight bat and follow through. Looked techincally poor. Not conviceed by him now. Not sure he is getting better and can cope going forward, techique does not look right

They are rating him highly because he hit straight sixes lol Imagine how well they would have rated for Uthappa's straight sixes against Brett Lee lol Mitchell Johnson would have been Gilchrist next coming for them

Uthappa would be an ATG if he were in Pakistan. Their fans don't know what good batting traits are. In a T20 game if somebody cowlashes for sixes with nothing to lose their batting is legendary. That is how guys like Afridi, Razzaq made a career with Pakistan. six hitting. It will continue. After Mohammad Yousuf they haven't produced a batsman who constructs an innings in a proper way. Younis was okay.. managed to cover his weaknesses somewhat. Salman Butt was their next best lol. That should tell you something.

Guys how would u rate Khatmal had he been Indian? I personally rate him highly from all the other pak youngsters. He is much better than the overrated shehzad, india basher jamshed, and poor mans lara Amin
