Pakistan and Australia in the UAE August-September 2012

[cricket_icon]

One of the best....no THE best t20 game I've ever seen. Too bad it was followed by the boring SA/Eng game.

Pakistan should keep up the same team. The Winning Combination should be there for the consistency and Confidence and Moral Wise, Its important for Pakistan to do Whitewash before the World T20. But I am afriad Pakistan can play with a weak strength in order to give chance to new players and that may not be the best of stratetiges. Let the Consistency goes in

Three names are coming Shafiq,Sami and Yasir Arafat , I think Yasir will play the next match .

Think we need to rotate the team so we can see how our backups. We should though plan to make it 3-0. Would like to see Arafat for Tanvir. Shafiq and Sami arent really required in this format, the latter should be shoved away for good.

But why Arafat for Tavir ? Ajmal is injured and he'll not play the next match so Arafat in for Ajmal .

Australia Why U Dont Give Alister McDermot A Chance To Show His Skills

I agree with the sentiment, but he's not in the World T20 squad. He might get in there if McKay fails to prove his fitness in time. But I will agree that we could play another fast bowler!!!

And this game turned out to be an absolute flogging! Whatever happened in the 1st T20I was reversed here. Warner and Watson put on 110 in 10 overs - good for those guys, but geez the middle order hasn't done much in the 3 matches. All the bowlers did well...except my man Dan Christian who was given a sympathy over towards the end. He must be in there as a specialist fielder

Aussies destroyed us

 

[sami ullah khan]

Great to see Australia bring the mediocre batting and fielding unit of Pakistan back down to earth. All the fans of Nazeer and Akmals should finally shut up. Its not BPL or SLPL where 120 KPH crap bowlers are feeding you juicy half volleys and half trackers. Against good pace and swing, most of our batsmen suck. Our bowling once again did well in restricting Australia to 170 on this placid track and with such a a fine start. I did not bother to stay up watch our batting getting murdered. I knew the result beforehand. I have watched the same happen for twenty years now. Imran Nazir, Imran Farhat and Umer Akmal are all mediocre players who will not even get selected at state level in countries like Australia and India yet ignorant fans here follow them like they are Bradman's second coming.
Pakistan will be lucky if they can make it to knockout stages of World cup. Only bowlers can save us as has been the case forever.

Thats a bit harsh considering we and Bangladesh are in Pakistans group and it was a dead rubber anyway, but I can understand your frustration in Farhat, Akmal etc. keep being selected. How on earth Kamran Akmal made it back into the Pakistan team is beyond me.

 

[sattar]

How on earth Kamran Akmal made it back into the Pakistan team is beyond me.

Its simple anwser is no one is nearer to kamran akmal in batting wicketkeeper slot maybe better in wicket keeping but now a days u just cnt get in team with keeping you have to be handy batsman as well

 

[sami ullah khan]

Kamran is a good T20 batsman but a useless keeper even worse than any part time option. My objection to his inclusion is his shoddy character with regards to fixing and betting. His name has appeared so many times in these scandals that he should not be selected.
