The amount of times this guy gets out in the same fashion and under the same circumstances is becoming uncanny.
For starters, he has an abysmal conversion rate of 50s to tons of barely 10%.
Pretty much every innings that he produces consists of an inconsequential two-figure score followed by an edge behind, a nick to slip or a front-foot LBW. Noticeable pattern is noticeable.
Moreover, he appears to be one of the most uneducated/selfish/inept users of the review system in world cricket. He can't be a good judge of his own game when he keeps on referring decisions like this. That's two innings in a row now where the double-strike of both umpire and technology has left this guy genuinely nonplussed as to his own stance and mistake.
Can he carry on justifying his place if this ordinary form continues?

One of our posters provides an interesting take on the value of Afridi and Sachin to their respective teams. Do you agree?

It was interesting to listen to Ian Bishop on commentary speaking about the Pakistani pace bowling trio of Wahab Riaz, Junaid Khan and Mohammad Irfan and comparing their various strengths and weaknesses.
Bishop quite clearly feels that Junaid is the most complete of the trio in terms of being able to move the ball both ways, his pace and his control.
General traits:
1. Good fitness
2. Good fielding
3. Good running between the wickets
4. Good 'cricketing' discipline , understands his obligations towards paid coaching staff.
5. Understands what to say in media and what not to say.
6. Possesses the correct basic technique taught in academies
7. Gets well integrated in team environment be it national team or a premier T20 franchise or an English county.
8. Understands his individual role in the team and plays accordingly.
Does any Pakistani cricketer fall in above category?
After watching a game for 6-7 hours it is kind of frustrating that an ODI game results in a tie. Other sports have ways to prevent a match ending in a tie and I think cricket should follow, specifically for ODI.
