How good is the Pakistan Team right now? (AKA the Pakistani climate thread)

[sledger]

The talent that hasn't really achieved anything for a considerable time now, I'd hasten to add.

 

[Agent Nationaux]

Well we have some new guys in like Junaid Khan, Umar Akmal, Azhar Ali, who I'm sure will do well in the future.

 

[Xuhaib]

still remember how the british media was up in arms during the Moore-Petersen row and if I recall correctly performance did suffer during that time.Such incidents are minor issues for Pakistan even during this so called period of calm we had the coach-captain media duel just few months back.

However we should not hasten in hailing this turnaround this side has not faced a top 4 opposition in the last 12 months the series against the English will be the first real test of Misbah's Pakistan

Reckon Pakistan will manage a draw against England on their own turf.

 

[LongHopCassidy]

I'd bet on them.

Well if England can take over a century to win a world cup that too a t20 We have done it twice in 2 decades..... I would give sometime to the new talent we found...

At least we dont have to import Saffers ..its home grown talent... I'd hasten to add.

their 2 rpo approach will hurt them against better bowling attacks they do not have the batting depth to cash in on tired attacks.

 

[Xuhaib]

haha...the needling has already started on CW.Series will be fun hopefully Pakistan can back it up on the field.

 

[NasserFan207]

Umar Akmal better play. And if they even consider selecting Rehman...

Um, I don't think England are going anywhere near Pakistan's turf.... Abu Dhabi's sand maybe, but not Pakistan's turf...

 

[Turbinator]

Haha, this is fun. Finally a heated argument on the forum that doesn't involve India. Time to sit back, relax, and enjoy the action - Keep it going fellas'

Its still their turf.

This turf is closer to Pakistan than it is to England...condition wise as well as distance wise...

You export a considerable amount to UK jails, however.

Neither of these posts are acceptable. A strong warning to everyone to not troll or you will be receiving an infraction.

 

[NasserFan207]

I thought Sledger meant Pakistan exported Saffers to British jails at first. Was confused as ****

TBH, I'm crying myself to sleep over how Pakistan's comeback via a 4-1 in ODIs has completely overshadowed past comebacks by other teams, like perhaps India beating the World Champions 2-1 in 2001, or a World Series depleted Australia beating India back when Burgey was still in his 50's.

 

[nsniks]

In T20 and ODI they definitely have the best bowling lineup in the world right now. Ajmal, Afridi and Hafeez have been superb. Still not entirely convinced about Pakistan's batting
