Big teams need to be proactive. Unless sudden bashes will come. I was afraid man for my vcash.

I Think India

Bangladesh on top here! Pakistan in deep trouble. Ind v Ban final on the cards?

Yet another failure from Sarfaraz. His last few performances which also includes Zimbabwe - 10(today),44,8,6,6,13,28. He is now close to 100 matches for Pakistan and still averages 33. He should really think hard what is he doing. I pity for Pakistan as they have to play and get captained by bits and pieces players like Sarfaraz.

 

[Master Khan]

The way Pakistan played today they deserve to lose and not be in the final.

 

[El Loco]

Absolute shambles. Back to the drawing board where their batting line-up is concerned for sure.

Excellent performance by Hasan Ali at the Wagah border! Good ride back home!

 

[Master Khan]

Since Championship trophy Pakistan just didn't play a lot of games and the games they played just wasn't against any big teams so the team didn't improved a lot.
Fielding also got a lot worse for Pakistan, this tournament made Pakistan realise that they need to improve a lot.
Hopefully it's a wake up call for the world cup next year.

Can any Pakistan team fan make me understand why Sarafaraz only bowled Junaid 9 and not 10?

I shudder to think what the Bangladeshi fans will resort to this time should they win the Asia Cup. It would be quite sad really if that happens where the win over a stronger team will be overshadowed by the antics of certain section of the fans.

Poor captaincy man.

 

[Master Khan]

Poor captaincy man.

Yeah he needs to improve his captaincy because he is not in the team for his batting.

Whatever little I have seen Sarfaraz Khan bat he has done better batting as opener than other positions compared can be a ideal opener with Fakhar Zaman.

Someone who can constantly rotate the strike is needed at the top of that order for sure and Sarfraz has proved himself as a batsman who keep the scoreboard ticking by doing exactly that.
Only problem is he is not a specialist batsmen being prized more for his keeping ability. I think for him to sacrifice a bit of that ability to concentrate more on kickstarting an innings would be slightly detrimental to his aptitude behind the stumps which is probably not a good trade for the few extra runs it might bring at the top of the order. I mean one only needs to look at what happened with Kamran Akmal for example.
