News came out that babar is gonna be a test captain, wallah i hope this is not true, last time we made him a captain, we all know what happened, let him focus on his batting, he is looking in really good touch rn, giving the captaincy to him rn doesnt make sense. I get it shan is SHIT but give the captaincy to agha, why babar?? I know this is not official but if this turns out to be true then babar is always gonna be in bad form. Reappointing babar is just going to kill his confidence and form all over again. It feels like the board never learns from past mistakes, this is just twitter rumours but u never know pcb could do that. every time a captain struggles, their immediate reaction is to panic and recycle the same old options instead of building something new. babar needs to be protected, not thrown back into the media circus and the captaincy drama which will cook him a lot. His confidence rn is really good, he is happy and if we make him a captain, we all know that will chance. I hope this is not true, please pcb yaar, dont do some dumb shit.

Mine is that 152-0 win against india is the most dominant win by either pak or india in that rivalry. So what I mean is, any match india has won, it wasnt as dominant as that win and any match that pak has won vs india, wasnt as dominant as that. Dont be sarcastic like agha is better than bradman, tendulkar and kohli (which is true) but i want serious hot takes and not sarcastic. Share your opinions down below in the comments

So they have won it. Im gonna be honest im not really happy about it because now shadab has a great chance of becoming our t20 captain😭😭. The stream was so laggy at the start on youtube which was really annoying but then it got better. So congrats to them and to shadab. Wallahi if shadab becomes the captain because of this then its gonna be so annoying ngl. This win could really hurt pakistan. I know some people are here from abbottabad so enjoy it because there is nothing else to enjoy about pak cricket right now. Please pcb dont make shadab captain because of this🙏🙏. It was a pretty dominant win but they shouldev made flat pitches so we can enjoy it but oh well... so yeah congrats to Abbottabad

how the hell am i gonna live past this entire and the next month😭😭?? Im cooked. Anyway on serious note tho why isnt pcb isnt doing more odi series? Iike we got a odi wc next month. what the hell??. we're literally ranked 6th in odi standings and they can't be bothered to book one extra series?? bangladesh was right there. sri lanka was right there. easy to arrange. but nah let's just give these bums a holiday i guess. idk it's just frustrating bc the odi wc is literally around the corner and we dont have any series coming up? whats wrong with pcb, can someone check up on them😭😭. We probably also gonna get cooked by west indies and england. But yeah, we need to play more series of odis and test more players. Pcb is insane man. Our management is so bad wallah. anyway i'm cooked. someone wake me up when pak plays again.

Yaar mujhe genuinely samajh nahi aati ke Haris Rauf ke around itni hype kyun hai.

Is se pehle ke log comments mein aa kar "hater" aur "agenda" shuru kar dein, nahi bhai. Personal kuch nahi hai. Banda mehnat karta hai, passion ke sath khelta hai, Pakistan ko represent karta hai. Respect uske liye hamesha rahegi. Lekin baat agar cricket ki ho rahi hai, toh phir performances discuss hongi.

Jab bhi Haris ka naam aata hai na, aisa lagta hai jaise hum kisi all-time great fast bowler ki baat kar rahe hain.

Har dafa wahi arguments:

"150 ki pace hai."

"Aggressive bowler hai."

"Match winner hai."

"Batsmen us se darte hain."

Theek hai bhai, pace hai. Yeh baat toh sab maan rahe hain.

Lekin kab se pace ne performances ko replace kar diya?

Fast bowling sirf speed gun par 150 dikhane ka naam nahi hota. Fast bowling pressure create karne ka naam hai. Important wickets lene ka naam hai. Runs control karne ka naam hai. Match ke crucial moments mein deliver karne ka naam hai.

Agar batsman araam se line aur length read kar raha hai, boundaries nikal raha hai aur pressure feel hi nahi kar raha, toh phir 150 kph ka faida kya hua?

Mujhe lagta hai Pakistan fans express pace se bohat jaldi impress ho jate hain. Koi bowler 145+ kar raha ho toh uski kaafi weaknesses automatically overlook ho jati hain.

Aur honestly, Haris ke case mein bhi mujhe kuch aisa hi lagta hai.

Kabhi kabhi lagta hai usko wickets se zyada "wow that was fast" moments milte hain.

Aur jab koi criticism kare toh foran excuses ready hote hain:

"Modern cricket mein sab pit te hain."

"Death bowling sab se mushkil job hai."

"Attacking bowler hai toh runs bhi khayega."

Theek hai bhai, valid baat hai.

Lekin phir elite bowler kis ko bolenge?

Elite bowler woh hota hai jo mushkil conditions mein bhi impact daale. Jo pressure absorb kare. Jo sirf highlights nahi, results bhi de.

Har expensive spell ko "death bowling mushkil hoti hai" keh kar justify nahi kiya ja sakta.

Sach kahun toh mujhe lagta hai Haris ki reputation uski actual performances se kaafi badi hai.

Aur yeh sawaal genuinely pooch raha hoon:

Agar kisi aur Pakistani bowler ke exactly same numbers hote, same performances hoti, lekin uske paas 150 ki pace na hoti, kya fans usko itna hi rate karte?

Mera jawab honestly nahi hai.

Mujhe lagta hai log usko jitna uski output ki wajah se rate karte hain, us se zyada uski pace aur aggression ki wajah se rate karte hain.

Aur phir squad discussions mein bhi dekho.

Haris ka naam almost permanent fixture ki tarah treat hota hai.

Jaise uski jagah discuss karna bhi allowed nahi hai.

Kyun?

Kya usne itni consistency dikhayi hai?

Kya usne itne tournaments dominate kiye hain?

Kya usne itni match-winning performances di hain ke usko criticism se upar rakh diya jaye?

Mere khayal mein nahi.

Phir bhi social media par uska perception aisa hai jaise woh Pakistan ka undisputed strike bowler ho aur uski jagah koi question hi nahi kar sakta.

Again, yeh hate post nahi hai.

Main yeh nahi keh raha ke Haris kharab bowler hai.

Main sirf yeh keh raha hoon ke Pakistan cricket mein kuch players ko unki reputation aur aura ki wajah se zyada rate kiya jata hai, aur Haris un players mein se ek lagta hai.

Hum sab 150 kph dekh kar excited ho jate hain. Main bhi hota hoon.

Lekin aakhir mein scorecard pace nahi dekhta.

Scorecard sirf performances dekhta hai.

Kuch samajh nahi aata yaar… sach mein.

Every squad announcement feels like guesswork now. Kabhi lagta hai form matters, phir agle hi squad mein lagta hai experience is everything, phir kabhi lagta hai selectors just picking names they already trust.

Main kisi ek player ki baat nahi kar raha. Ye issue overall system ka hai.

Domestic cricket ka kya faida agar consistently perform karne wale players ko chance hi na mile? PSL mein runs ya wickets le ke bhi agar ignore ho rahe ho, toh phir selection ka point kya reh jata hai?

On the other side, kuch players ko lagta hai ke woh almost undroppable hain, chahe form kaisa bhi ho. Aur phir youngsters ko 2-3 matches milte hain, pressure mein fail hotay hain, aur phir seedha bahar.

Ye inconsistency hi sab se bara issue hai.

Aur sab se confusing baat ye hai ke selectors ka “criteria” har series ke baad change hota hua lagta hai. Kabhi fitness, kabhi experience, kabhi “team combination”, kabhi “future planning” — but koi fixed direction nazar nahi aati.

Fans ko samajh hi nahi aata ke actually reward kis cheez ka mil raha hai.

To be honest, Pakistan cricket ka talent issue nahi hai. Talent toh bohot hai. Problem selection aur planning ka hai.

Mere hisaab se kuch basic cheezen clear honi chahiye:

• Form should matter for everyone, no exceptions.
• Domestic aur PSL performance ko seriously reward karo.
• Young players ko sirf 2 matches de ke judge mat karo.
• Seniors ko bhi same accountability honi chahiye.
• Har player ka clear role hona chahiye pehle se, not after selection.
• Test, ODI aur T20 ka separate proper plan hona chahiye.

Abhi situation aisi lagti hai ke hum har series ke baad phir se team build kar rahe hotay hain, instead of following a long-term plan.

Aur jab results nahi aate, phir sab confuse hotay hain ke galti kahan hui.

Bas honestly… kuch samajh nahi aata kabhi kabhi.

What do you guys think? Agar aap chief selector hotay, sab se pehli change kya hoti?

A message from the boys wishing us all Eid mubarak. Hope all of you guys have a great time celebrating and make sure to spend time with your family and friends. Special time of the year✨. EID MUBARAK

So whats your guys prediction for our upcoming series against Australia. Our squad include youngsters and the pcb made a strange decision dropping Rizwan while he is our top scorer for 3 years. Australia aren't bringing their strongest possible side either but they're still a proper team with match winners throughout. Marsh, Labuschagne, Green, Zampa. I need babar to atleast score one hundred and I want agha to have a good series. Dropping Rizwan is the one that really annoys me. The man has been our best batter consistently for 3 years straight and they just drop him? I dont get pcb at all ngl. Anyway whats ur guys predictions? mine is 2-1 pak but I wouldnt be surprised if we get cooked. Also why has shadab been picked? his last game was in 2023 and he hasnt played domestic in 2 years. The only thing I'm genuinely excited about is Babar. He was great in psl and looked good against bangladesh. If he gets time in the middle and plays his natural game this could be a different series ngl. Anyway what do u guys think? are we getting white washed or are we going to dominate australia. I really wanted starc and cummins to play but unfortunately they have ipl which is kinda annoying.

Whats ur guys opinion on this. Do you agree with him and think he is saying the correct or is he being harsh because babar was our best batter in that innings.ngl ramiz is being way too harsh here. every batter in the world gets done by a good delivery sometimes, that's literally cricket. If Babar didnt perform we wouldev been cooked cause no one else performed. He didnt criticised other player but he did it on babar- the biggest name. Anyway whats ur guys thoughts on this? But I agree what he has to work against pure pace because if u guys the match vs lahore in last psl, babar got out against rauf and wasnt looking comfortable.

Whats with Babar and fake injuries? After the wc, akif javed said babar was injured but later on he played in psl and played really well. Whats wrong with Akif javed bro. Yes this still could be fake news but I genuinely believe it because of the previous injury situation. Just let the guy play bro, he needs confidence and needs to get back to his form but instead akif doesnt want to play him. Crazy. The photo is in the comment btw if u dont what im talking about. But looking at the video, babar looks healthy to me

I saw this on x and people were hating on him. I get it that u should always play for the win but they were already out of the tournament and they were losing the game anyway by a big margin as well.
