We did it. We lost to USA in cricket who are making their debut in World Cricket. Wow, what a team. The main person to thank is Mr. King Kong (Azam Khan) who once again got out on a duck. A first ball duck. The man cannot move at all. He does not have any footwork at all. Just because he is Moin Khan’s son he is in the team. In my opinion, any other player is better than him.
Even Misbah ul Haq nearing 50 years of age can do better than him, today. How can we even call King Kong a cricketer? He is physically unfit, has no foot movement while playing shots, and can’t keep wickets properly, last match he kept wickets and dropped 2 regulation catches, he is just behind wickets because he can’t field anywhere else. We can’t find a better batsman than him in 240 million Pakistanis. He might be a very nice person, a nice human being but is that the criteria to come into the Pakistan cricket team?

Did anyone see the management entourage of the Pakistan team at the time of the national anthem? There were more than 15 players on the team. Let’s not even talk about the selectors and the Chairman. How can they even show their faces in public after this humiliation? The only one semi-government organization that was being run professionally is now also being run on the Parchi system.
Let’s also talk about the composition of the team. 5 fast bowlers, 1 spinner, 6 batsmen, 2 bowling all-rounders, and 1 King Kong. If anyone had seen or discussed with players who had played in this area they would know that the ball cuts and spins a lot too. Our professional management staff could not even do this research. Pathetic. After today’s defeat, the whole management staff along with Chairman should resign.
And for the super over. When we have the top run scorers in the world, two batsmen who have been number 1 in the T20 rankings, who in the right mind would have asked them to sit out the super over and send in Iftikhar and then Shadab (a bowling all-rounder) as 1 down. Why do the coaches and the management team just think that strike rate is everything? It is really mind-boggling. Ramiz Raja has correctly pointed out that we should not select players on just strike rates but should choose only on their cricketing abilities.

Even a 10-year-old kid has better cricketing brains than our 15-20 management staff members accompanying the team. Oh, but I forgot, parchi system does not require them to use their brains. The way the affairs of PCB are being run soon cricket in Pakistan will also vanish like we have finished Hockey and Squash in Pakistan. At one time we were amongst the best in these 3 sports but now we only have memories and cricket will also become a sport of our past as we deteriorate further.
For the next few games, I beg the team management to think from their heads, not their butt, and pick a team that is devoid of King Kong. Why can’t we have Saim Ayub play at number 6 or 7 when pinch hitters are required? Why do we have to slot him as an opener? We have experimented with King Kong enough now try Saim at 6 and use his ability to bowl also. We at least have a decent option of spin too. Also, do not play 4 fast bowlers. Please get Abrar Ahmed a go. He will be your lethal weapon. Why have we taken him if we are only to rely on the Great spinner Shadab Khan who has a bowling average that is higher than his batting average.
I know we are going to be thrashed by the Indian team, so why not try a new option as I have mentioned, and why keep trying King Kong and all pace attack which has no brains.
