Well done to Sarfraz and Malik as well. Good contributions.

Congratulations to Pakistan on a record T20I chase. When was the last time against a top team when our bowling failed but our batting saved the day ?!
Only a biased person could not see the progress made with this LOI team. Fakhar Zaman and Asif Ali have provided much needed power to a previously one paced lineup. If we can sort out positions 2 and 3 then we've a team that can contend for the World T20.
The bowling and fielding has seen better days - I hope this was only a blip.
Finally, it's very satisfying to beat Australia in a tournament final. We now have 9 consecutive T20I series wins in a row and those who doubted the worthiness of our #1 T20I ranking have their answer.

I enjoyed the chase. What I found surprising and atypical for a Pakistani chase was Fakhar consistently providing us with high scoring overs around the middle. Normally we would leave everything for the last 4 overs with a huge RR. This time we went into the death overs with RR pretty much manageable which led to a comfortable finish.

Who expected Pakistan to win after they were 2-2 in the first over?We won quite comfortably thanks to the 'hack'.The stars have been aligning quite often for him.

Pakistan are not known for chasing down big totals let alone in a final so this is a great achievement.
At the half way mark, I thought Pak had conceded just too many runs
180+ is always a stiff run chase
Great run chase esp after losing 2 wickets in the 1st over. Shoaib Malik and Sarfraz also played their parts today
Fakhar has been superb throughout this tri-series. So consistent with the bat. His blistering knock made the latter half of the run chase pretty much a formality. He scored in every game except the 1st match vs Australia
Result also means Pakistan will stay as the no 1 T20 side, a position they have occupied since 2016.

I never had any doubt about Fakhar’s talent and what a game changer this guy can be even when he was batted down the order in his debut T20 and many tried to potrait him as hack just bcz he got out on the boundary without reslizing how esdily he had hit that and wasnt shy of targeting his areas.
What I saw in his first PSL was that how strong he was with his hitting areas and how good his hitting technique was and his defensive technique is also much better than many realize.
More importantly he has the temperament ro play at this level, he knows his game and is intelligent enough to understand match situations.
Many more trophies to come

I am bit disappointed in Husain Talat, not that he has been too shabby in his career as he has done reasonably well but he needs to open up himself and practice his hitting areas. If he wants to become a match changer or a big match player he needs to be confident of his abilities and hitting areas.
While Asif Ali and Fakhar Zaman both have shown they can deliver in big matches and Babar has really improved in the last 6 months in terms of performing under pressure.
Such players are needed in tournament finals and series deciders.
-
8th July 2018, 18:54 #52
In bowling Shaheen is one hell of a find, no pressure and nothing fazes him other than many other skills in his kitty. Needs to be kept away from tests for 2,3 years as at this age with this height back issued can come into play.
However, must mention that his action is really smooth and minimizes excess pressure on any body part. He can transitioned in ODIs.

Congrats to all posters here. @Slim
Fakhar has proven to get a clutch player. Australia on the other hand really need Smith and Warner back even in the T20 side . Also apart from Richardson and Stanlake, their bowling is utter rubbish. No wonder England smashed them. Pakistan's bowling seems to have improved radically in the last couple of years. Aamir/Hasan/Shaheen/Shadab/Fabeem is probably the best Lou attack going around.

Fakhar is a fearless man, I thought no that’s why he does well in big games.. other Pakistani batsmen are sometimes too scared of failure and can’t show the bottle..
Hope Fakhar keeps this up... we have not had a top order batsman like him since Afridi was on his pomp as an opener..
-
9th July 2018, 02:55 #66
You make a very good point.
I’ve always said that batting is all in the head.
Most first class players have the basics in terms of technique, what most lack is the mental side of things...
Fakhar just goes out there and plays naturally. Others get nervous and tighten up or have scrambled thinking..
-
9th July 2018, 03:02 #67
Was really happy with that win. Think that over where that Australian bowler bowled like 4 wides was the turning point. TBH part of me still thought we would win even when we were 2-2. Fakhar Zaman deserved a century though, but this is a great win nevertheless
-
9th July 2018, 03:10 #68
Just watched the highlights... what character shown by the side. Aus were 100 odd after 10 overs with 1 down. They were racing away and then to restrict them to 183 was a feat in itself. Then Pak were 2-2 after the first over and staring down the barrel, yet they ended up winning it with so much ease. This Pak side reminds me of Aus side of early 2000s where no matter what position you put them in they find a way to win it. Man I'm really stoked about this LOI side and looking forward to future series. Its a travesty that we hardly play any of the big boys often. Pretty sure we would absolutely smash every single team in world cricket apart from perhaps India or England.

Fakhar!
Congrats to the team. I'm now convinced we're the real deal in T20s.
Scandal or bowlers ravaged by long tough Test series or not, let's remember that Australia don't have half of the players that are first choice.
If only we were playing India so the best players could test each other.

Fakhar is comfortably the best T20 player we have (even better than Babar). The way he steps up when the odds are stacked agaisnt him and conquers the opposition makes him world class. God knows what our top order could've been if Sharjeel was around to partner up with Fakhar.

Not yet mate! Wait for few more series win against Top side like SA, India. I think coming Asia Cup will be litmus test for this side. I still feel we have to sort out mantle block against while playing India . If we do so we can beat them in any tournament for simple reason. In tournaments skills play only little where as big heart is major factor.

Yes and had we lost then i’m sure you would come here and said it was expected because we’re a pathetic side....
T20 Win against England = Fluke
T20 win against Kiwis = Fluke
T20 wins against Srilanka Windies = Fluke because they were depleted sides.
Hell even our test match win against England at Lords was a fluke just as the CT2017 final against India...
So really we can’t win whatever happens.
Rather then priaising the talent we have and the progress we’ve shown in our cricket despite the pathetic first class structure let’s just call every victory a fluke...
How about appreciating Fakhar’s innings when were 2 for 2 chasing 180 odd rather then dissing our players... I assure you had Australia win this low grade tournament they would have celebrated it, just like any other nation would have...

As usual, people love to put words in my mouth. Just because I call Champions Trophy win a fluke doesn’t mean that every Pakistan win is one.
Apart from the Champions Trophy, none of the wins that you highlighted were flukes.
This tri-series win was by no means a fluke either, but neither was it a big deal.Last edited by Mamoon; 10th July 2018 at 21:57.
