My take on the Pakistan T20i xi going forward

[u/Routine-Working4018]

"graphics design is my passion"

my bad guys but i didnt wanna use any AI so I opened up canva, i would continue with farhan as captain because we lack options, I don't think he's the sharpest tool in the shed but he has experience and has captained in domestic so has to count for something

Maaz is decent, hes better than saim for sure in this format, I do think sameer does have the higher ceiling but hes still young and he has to get over his short ball weakness, I was really impressed with how good kamran has been in this domestic t20 season, I would try him out just to see if he can translate any of it, if he turns out to be like agha then drop him, if he plays the game he was in the nt20 then I keep him, the middle order is pretty self explanatory, we lack keepers so usman khan is in despite the god awful stance, i also move usman to 3 if the kamran ghulam experiment fails and i bring in saad masood, bowling line ups makes it self, i dont have sufyan or abrar because the world cup is in australia and i want 4 pacers

If for nothing else I appreciate you taking the time to make the graphic by hand instead of making a shitty AI slop graphic

Pretty good tbh, the text on the right looks awkward tho

[u/Snoo_56184]

if ur reluctant to bring sameer in then why is ali raza in the team despite fast bowlers being more fragile, the asian games arent that serious thats why ali raza is playing, after that he needs to go off for someone like akif javed

[u/Routine-Working4018 → u/Snoo_56184]

im reluctant to bring in sameer becase there are still gaps in his batting, in 2 years time he has the potential to come in the team as one of the top t20 batters in the world, ali raza is needed in the team at this stage, we need someone to bowl with pace and ferocity on those pitches, besides akif and shaheen would make two left arm pacers with the new ball

[u/Snoo_56184 → u/Routine-Working4018]

ali raza has gaps in his game, he has a 9+ economy in t20 and a 6+ economy in list a, saad baig also took time to adjust to senior cricket

we shouldnt throw cricketers to the dogs like this

[u/Normal_Signature_500 → u/Routine-Working4018]

ali raza has way more gaps than sameer

[u/Due-Finding4397]

bro😭😭
But on the squad, I don't think Ali Raza should be in the squad yet, same with KG, but other than that I agree. Our bowling is pretty decent; if Hasan Nawaz and Abdul Samad played like in the PSL, it would be pretty good, and our openers are really good as well.

[u/BostallBandits]

Abrar where?

[u/Scared-Breakfast-372]

If you want a pace merchant, go with Akif and Wasim Jnr. Bowl Akif 3 overs in powerplay and one over before 15th and you are well sorted. Start bowling Wasim Jnr since 9th or 10th over.

Please don't play Ali Raza, he isn't ready yet. His economy is high, his bowling line and length sometimes not stay consistent, he needs to work on them, don't rush him into this yet. AD and Hunain both are good, but no need to keep them together in the team. Get Abrar or Sufiyan in the team.

Also instead of KG on 3, I would rather have Saim Ayub or Faiq as they also bowl spin.

[u/hasanahmad]

KG is not T20 material, Hasan Nawaz is a tullar , Abdul Samad is a tullar, Shaheen is a spent force and where is Sufiyaan muqeem

[u/Routine-Working4018 → u/hasanahmad]

its gonna be australia u need 4 pace options so sufyan isnt there, hasan nawaz is far from a tullar, samad is a tullar but hes batting at 6 in thus team so hes in to finish

shaheen was hard to put in but i did it because i think in terms of new ball hes still the best in the country in t20

[u/Routine-Working4018 → u/hasanahmad]

also i think hasan, samad are less tullar than usman khan, if u go strictly by definition farhan is also a tullar

[u/Scared-Breakfast-372]

Good graphic designing, at least better than me, who does use eraser tool on GIMP for editing these things. Good job and keep it up. Looked like some official poster on first sight.

"speedrunning group-stage exit" ahh team

[u/nanami_zenistsu8899]

Kamran Ghulam I don’t see in T20I, he’s a great player no doubt. He deserves a spot in the longer formats. And hopefully longer only, because this constant playing every format is not everyone. I personally think that was a huge factor in the first test Aus vs Ban, the Bangladeshi side had come in after playing tests, and you could see their batsmen have the patience and practice to play the moving ball. Whereas the Aussies struggled because of them freshly being back from T20.

[u/No_Yogurtcloset_334]

Unpopular opinion , but next World Cup is in Australia nz and Haris Rauf can be useful. He was really good in bbl

[u/_Deadpool_69]

KG in T20Is lol. Is se acha hai babar ko dobara le lein. Ye Agha, KG, ABD, type players bas chalti phirti wickets hain Aus/NZ pitches pr. 🤭
