Shoaib Malik's captaincy style

[Pak_cricketer]

Afridi would be captain material. He's aggressive, and brings venom into the game. He showed his skills in the 2006 Twenty20 tournament, as he took a young Karachi all the way to the finals.

Guys stop acting stupid with you're opinions, no offence, Afridi isn't a good enough player to be the leader of the team, he's going to lead the team to a disaster rather.


Afridi is getting something he don't deserve, well a good bowler though.

Does the Captain have to be a good batsman? Take Afridi as a bowler. He's a pretty good bowler, and he is improving in every game. He's bowling slower, getting spin, gaining variety, and probably is ahead of Kaneria already.

I'm talking about his attitude. Malik looks very contained, very immature, and at times he looks clueless.

I can tell you by watching the Twenty20's a couple years back, Afridi has what it takes to become a successful captain. He's aggressive, knows what he has to do, and overall he knows his place in the team. He wants to be a bowler, and we have got to accept that. We've been trying to force him in as a batsman, when we've been overlooking his strong point which is bowling.

Anyways, Malik isn't playing tomorrow because he's injured. (This is suppose to be our fittest player) :.. So we'll be able to see Misbah captaining the side.

Great!

Well...just as Zohaib said, Pakistan need a more aggressive captain and Afridi can do that. I would either go for Afridi or Younis Khan. Definitely not Misbah or anybody else in the team since nobody is as experienced as these 2.

To the last line of the last post...to be honest...I really think that Afridi is the fittest Pakistani player in the team

something of the same i said in my previous post:

hats off to u mate you are so great in this
what a great reply, i do think afridi should lead the team since he has experienced which is enough to make his team win

 

[6 x Afridi]

Malik is a lost captain really.

Give it to Boom Boom! That'll be something to watch!

i think so too

afridi has soo much experience, brilliant fielder, entertaining batsmen, and superb bowler

misbah is also a smart guy

but the guy who i want most to captain pakistan is YOUNIS KHAn

he got the authority man, annoyingdevil and usy should agree with me.

and usy bhai why didnt u accept me as ur friend bro.

anyways Younis khan all the way. he never looks confused. he always nos wat hes doing.he is so calm and cool like zidane literally just htink about it. he is such a great player. and wachu tan bout usy, misbah does have experience. hes 34 and has plenty of first class experience. anyways hes just like younis khan. allways in controll

Afridi is good-but he cant keep his place in the team.Asif was your vice-captain once,but now,he might not even play cricket in the future.
Misbah-he looks like a decent candidate.

Please not Yunus Khan.He cracks stupid jokes at the press conferences and expects us to laugh.If you guys want an experienced hand,go for Mohd.Yousuf.

ibut the guy who i want most to captain pakistan is YOUNIS KHAn

Give the captaincy to one who doesnt cant make up his mind.He wanted to give it up in 2006,after 2007 WC. Why give it to him now ?

Try Sohail Tanvir.

 

[blackk]

younis khan is brave cricketer & intelligent player.some of the decisions by malik are v. poor.

y.khan is better choice

 

[Insomniac]

Younus Khan declined the captaincy in his vandetta against Dr. Nasim Ashraf...

Although he would make a decent captain..

 

[usy]

what next? Gul for captain?

I'd rather not be a fan of Pakistan anymore, if you give Afridi the job, he hardly makes a test player never mind. You guys should stop taking drugs.

 

[khalek]

younus khan is the best choice... mohammad yousuf or misbah can be good captains also... but too bad yousuf and younus have refused to be captains...

Afridi hasnt been dropped since like forever now except from the test team.

About the press conference thingy...Nobody really cares about press conferences until we win games. He is a really smart and intelligent captain. If I get an option, Younis Khan all the way for me.

Get some other captain for the Test team. India have a different captain for both forms...

TBH...some people never really understand that a good player is not always a good captain. I agree that Misbah and Yousuf are really good captains...but to be honest none of the 2 can be really good captains...

Stop comparing India with Pakistan, their team is far better then our ATM.

 

[Master Khan]

Just because We lost to India doesn't mean that our captain is not good
because India is a strong team

Then don't.

You don't accept anyone's suggestions, do you? We're giving it thought, and it's not like PCB are going to listen to random people on the forums.
