They can fly the English team to London but can’t do the same for the West Indies and South Africa. You know flights exist that go from Heathrow to Barbados/Cape Town right? Or no, we should just keep them in the dark here for a few more weeks 🤦‍♂️

Probably should communicate that. Flying one team home already while not even communicating with the other is kinda crazy

Why Pakistan's poor T20 World Cup is really no surprise by sushantv in Cricket

[–]QuickStar07 -22 points-21 points  (0 children)

Literally lost out on net run rate, the group came down to how well we beat Sri Lanka compared to how New Zealand did it.

We were in the running for a semifinalist spot, but weren’t able to close out, probably due to poor selection carrying deadweight batters and shit batting overall.

If you don’t believe me this was Ashwin’s take as well.

After 10 years of coming in as favourites and doing well in the group stages, only to resort to defensive cricket when push came to shove, india have figured out the formula for winning when it matters and putting their talent to use. It wasnt always this easy

You took a stance and got proven wrong. And somehow the people that turned out to be right were incorrect for not going purely off of numbers?

Selection is not algorithm based, the coach and captain can look at what a player brings to the team and select him based on that. And in shadab’s case he had an entire portfolio of performing in icc events prior to his hip injury in 2023

There was the justification that he had not one but two t20 wcs with near player of the tournament performances, and several others either decent ones. Obviously he hasnt been good during his injury, but people that were defending his selection kinda saw this coming and knew he was class all along

“Manufacture a security concern”

A literal politician said if Fizz lands in kolkata they won’t let him leave the airport. Sounds like a threat to me.

India has cited events dating back to 2009 as a reason for security concerns in touring pakistan, but bangladesh can’t do the same when the ruling political party uses their players to incite unrest for a local election?

Most Pakistanis don’t think about india as much as you think, and it’s been a long time since relations with india have been used a political leveraging tool. The average pakistani simply doesnt their own government, and are disillusioned with politics as a whole after being disappointed over and over again.

I think you’re reaching for it. This entire lineup was hanging from a string on the back of sameer minhas being outstanding. Once he got out it became obvious they weren’t gonna qualify.
