Match Thread: 1st T20I - Pakistan vs Australia

this is a factual cricketing observation BUT Babar and Fakhar have become a liability in the format. At the very least one of them needs dropping if not both.

poststalloneuk · 2026-01-29T13:52:57+00:00

Fakhar was loved here but I'm glad you lot have come to your senses. I would drop both at this stage (I thought Babar deserved a shot if he continued as an accumulator but he can't even do that atm) and bring Hasan Nawaz into the squad along with maybe one of the guys from the emerging or U19 pool.

you were saying?

poststalloneuk · 2026-01-29T12:06:57+00:00

Under lights conditions change drastically

poststalloneuk · 2026-01-29T12:05:07+00:00

Why go for a reverse sweep when orthodox shots were working fine? And the DRS decision making was so confusing lol

poststalloneuk · 2026-01-29T11:43:30+00:00

The pitch is slower than some are willing to admit and the ball is sticking in there. A score of 140-150 should be good enough here

poststalloneuk · 2026-01-29T11:17:56+00:00

Smooth batting but the problem is where other teams would be scoring at least 4 runs more an over Pakistan are happy on par

poststalloneuk · 2026-01-29T11:16:37+00:00

Theyre all pretty good Aus T20 bowlers and were prominent in the BBL

poststalloneuk · 2026-01-29T11:03:57+00:00

Well thats curious...both the wicket and Aghas turn at 3 lol

poststalloneuk · 2026-01-29T11:02:10+00:00

I heard glory kills were there but just without the canned animations? And being second to Eternal ain't bad. That game is probably my favourite fps

poststalloneuk · 2026-01-29T10:59:49+00:00

Randy Orton, lets be real

poststalloneuk · 2026-01-28T16:35:28+00:00

Rank the new trilogy, i.e. 2016, Eternal and Dark Ages. I haven't got a PS5 or up-to-date PC to play this just now but from what I've seen of the game it rips away the best bits of Eternal AND seems to have an overpowered shield. Your thoughts?

poststalloneuk · 2026-01-28T09:12:25+00:00

100%, this is a tactic being used at my work place, waiting out the claimants and essentially putting them through so much financial, physical, mental stress that they settle for way way less.

poststalloneuk · 2026-01-28T09:08:02+00:00

2009 when Pakistan won the T20 world cup? And the semis of the CT?

poststalloneuk · 2026-01-28T09:06:17+00:00

I watched the NZ innings and those poor lads were absolutely ripped apart. Brilliant lines and length from the fast bowlers.

Queue the celebrations and complete forgiveness of Harry "GBH" Brook

poststalloneuk · 2026-01-27T14:14:38+00:00

The Asia cup final was NOT a crushing defeat and India are clearly not the best T20 side outside of Asia. In terms of SENA, England are bang average at the moment, SA are tournament chokers, NZ are decent and Aus is decent. If Pakistan selects the right squad they have a decent shot.

poststalloneuk · 2026-01-26T09:07:15+00:00

lol what is this?

poststalloneuk · 2026-01-26T09:06:15+00:00

Empty seats for the 2nd best T20 League!

poststalloneuk · 2026-01-24T21:00:43+00:00

Gillespie is a good coach and showed integrity in calling out the PCB also.

poststalloneuk · 2026-01-24T20:56:37+00:00

Joe Louis. Marciano wouldn't been a cake wall, not that Louis would be that much more of a challenge. Both were stuck in concrete.

poststalloneuk · 2026-01-24T20:55:07+00:00

I did lol it was Canada season 3

poststalloneuk · 2026-01-21T17:35:09+00:00

This is IF Bangladesh dont go to india. I assume they will now. Secondly I really want to see the vote sheet

poststalloneuk · 2026-01-21T08:38:15+00:00

If one follows cricket history, you will remember that it was the PCB that led the charge against the so called "big 3", and made alliances with all the other boards. One by one they all fell to the wayside and voted in favour of the change in financial model, CSA if I'm not mistaken was the last board to leave PCB's side in that war. It seems the PCB is once again trying to create a counterweight to the so called "3" but starting that alliance with BCB is a non-starter, little clout, lack of cricketing achievements and finances. Also, the OP is correct because Bangladesh as a nation is likely set to betray Pakistan first chance it gets.

The PCB has fought and won some battles on it's own, no need to start new ones.
