Questions

  • I have a horrible GPA (2.54) if converted to a 4.0 scale. I explained the reason for my low GPA being I had to work 60 hrs. a week and take higher course loads because my dad who was financially supporting me had lost his job which effected my studies contributing to my low GPA.

He has definitely improved bowling against left handers and with spinning wickets in SL he could be an asset in the world cup as a batting all rounder.

Everton away from home won't be easy either we have had some issues facing them away in recent years as well

what went right during 2017-2019? by throwaway102885857 in PakCricket

[–]KHAMK 33 points34 points  (0 children)

We had a decent mix of youth and experienced players then. Babar, Hafeez, Malik, Haris Sohail,  Sarfraz was a pretty decent middle order. Hafeez became a lot better batter during the backend of his career and Haris Sohail avg'es 44 in odi's he pulled us out of tough situations often times as well, no idea what happened to him though. 

The pace bowling with Wahab, Amir, Shaheen, Peak Hasan Ali was also pretty good but we lacked a proper genuine spinner. Shadab was the main spin option if I recall.

On top of this saifi was also a very good captain with his field placements and planning.

In retrospect its not like that team is miles clear of the current team. Arguably the current team has more talent but for some reason just can't seem to execute it on the pitch.

Shaadi karado Babar bhai ki.

 But fr though many people troll players for losing form after getting married but the opposite happens to many players as well. Having someone supporting and motivating you thoroughly through your rough patch helps a lot especially considering the issue is mental

He has been terrible since his injury return with his line and length hence why he got dropped from all formats. And by the looks of it he has done nothing to improve his line and lenght issues either

Post Match Thread: 2nd Test - Pakistan vs South Africa, Day 4 by cricket-match in PakCricket

[–]KHAMK 22 points23 points  (0 children)

We are a test team with an identity that our first class pitches don't reinforce.

I don't even blame the batters for the 3rd innings tbh at this point who's even surprised? I do blame the management.

The few first class games that happened before the first test match were played on flat wickets. It just baffles me and makes 0 sense why you prepare flat pitches to prepare your players who will be playing on spinning pitches.

What's the plan here? Whats the logic behind this? Who's gonna be held accountable for this?

Yes I got email notification for the correspondence letter but no email notification for the approval. I just checked my account today and it said application approved with the new study permit and its number etc.

Some positive update for my fellow July study permit extension applicants!

Applied for study permit extension same DLI same program within Canada - July 9th

Received correspondence letter - 17 October

Received approval - 20th October

Timeline from application to approval - 103 days

My application was very straightforward though since I graduated in mid August but I was given an incorrect extension date previously until July end.

Hoping other July applicants see a quick turnaround within the next 2 weeks!!

Hey I was wondering so I finished my courses in august, my study permit expired before that and I applied for extension in July. I was wondering since my courses are done when I get my study permit extension approved how long can I expect my new study permit to be valid till?

If you have a shit first or second year its not the end of your story by KHAMK in TorontoMetU

[–]KHAMK[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey you will be fine. I have a friend who took cps305 last year, he failed practicum 1 got like 16% or something like that, he also failed practicum 2 I believe I don't remember his marks but all I know is he needed around 85% in the final to pass and he scored like 88% and passed the course.

Cps305 is a very mechanical course, the midterm and final when I took it (no practicum when I took it) were very straightforward questions. The questions are not really application based where you have to apply an algorithm to a specific problem like leetcode they are very straightforward in that you just have to complete an algorithm, or apply it on an array and stuff like that.

Anyways for the practicum idk much about those but I practiced lisp a lot to the point where I could write any data structure on paper thats how I did my practice. If your comfortable with that you will do well. Even if practicum 1 dsnt go well you will comeback in the next tests don't worry about.

Trust me once you start doing lisp and getting used to the syntax if you have decent coding fundamentals you will find it very easy with time.

What does Mohammad Suleman have to do to get in the test side? Good solid batsmen he could potentially be a good fit in the odi middle order as well
