Wahab Riaz Apologies To Pakistani Fans!

[Musafir117]

Australia almost defended 151. You need a bowler who can 5,6 or 7 wickets like starc. A expensive bowler who took just 2 wickets and talk to much might not be enough.

I watch the match! Did you?
In this particular QF match STARC against Wahab is like child, even their captain and Watson other analysts accept that Wahab Spell was out standing SO I passed your comments as an immature approach of thinking.
Yes you can say that our Fielding was so bad compare to Aussies they don't drop and we drop all.

Useless Wahab Riaz, he didn't play professional and intended to bowl over the shoulders, that's a bit cheating.

Remember Wasim Akram and Waqar Younis were outstanding bowling directly to the wickets.

He is a great player and deserve respect...If you see in current crop of South Asian bowlers, I always miss the old days quality Pakistan fast bowlers of the past...But when I saw the current bowling team, I see your bowlers have great potential...Wahab, Rahat and also your leg spinner Yasir Shah..if i am not wrong are really worth watching....And what happened to Ajmal? Are you bringing him back or not?

Getting a quality bowler is a so rare now a days...Love to see that so many good pace bowling examples are set in this world cup...

I'm much satisfied with our current bowling squad, Irfan will be back and they are quiet strong enough to thrash any team. What we need to stitches the holes in hands of fielders so they not drop the catches, batting after SAYONARA of Afridi and Misbah we need time and talent to make it more strong.

Don't know you play cricket or not! That kind of bowling irritate batsman and start lose passion play risky shots and give the wicket, even you don't know that the pitch was a dead wicket NO Swings work No Spins Work, chances of Bowled or LBW is a metrical pitch like that, the chances could avail is only catches, did you missed that scene when a batsman give an easy catch to SillyMid On to Akmal? Wahab's that delivery didn't give other chance to batsman and make him to play that shot.
Sorry to say you guys don't have that class so why you just giving other excuses.

Well, he is not good player in my opinion, someone will replace him soon. I am not satisfied with the team including Wahab, Misbah, Afridi, and other infants.

Please don't pay attention just only on Wahab Riaz, look around at the teamwork chemistry.

Edit: Add picture here for us to remember 2 Ws.

Pitch, conditions, batsmen, condition of ball, score, so many factors. You can't always bowl wicket to wicket and get wickets, or even stop runs. He played within the rules and got results. He deserved to be in a better team...

Misbah is your best batsmen, who else could score so consistently holding down the anchor?

Whatever, Pakistan team are not working together and we have seen many losses of important matches, everyone know Misbah.

Don't tell me what you think, you should decide for India the best and I observe Pakistan.

They were gifted players under Capt like Imran make them more sharp and aggressive NO doubt they were great.
He took my attention specifically in QF match, he is gifted too need just need a great environment to show more his un covered secrets.

Ever tried to play short length deliveries at uncomfortable pace at those bouncy pitches? Couple that with the fact that he was bowling around the wicket, an his line and length was relentless, it wasn't just any wild bouncer, those were accurate as hell. Also Shane Watson doesn't play short balls too comfortably, and in fact, none of those guys looked comfortable, he took wickets, would've taken even more if the fielding was better, and his economy in those overs was not bad at all.

May be he wasn't captain material. But as a batsman, he was the best in the team. Or may be you think team would have scored more without him?

Don't tell me what you think, you should decide for India the best and I observe Pakistan.

I can't decide for India, let alone Pakistan. All I can do is express my views as a fan!

but he showed you the game of cricket and how men play it.

Wahab was probably the best bowling available to Pak cricket team after injuries and absence of class players like Ajmal, Umar Gul, Hafeez etc. If pak team failed it was only bcz it was a collective failure of Batsmen, fielding and very limited support to Wahab in bowling..

In batting, the top 4-5 players in batting order were never consistent and middle order and late middle order never had any clue. Its as if the talented bunch is absolutely clueless.. Baring a batsman or two rest had a bad world cup. Be it in mind they played a total of 7 game in WC and a couple of practice matches and yet they never got into the groove.. That was sad to see...

Fielding i thot there is a lack of seriousness and sincerity.. See even Indian team were not a good fielding side in the past but youth and hard work is slowing raising standards. Thats why i used the word sincerity as somewhere they were going through the motions rather than playing for the pride. This is very different from past teams which had touched great heights.

Bowling well honestly spinner afridi failed with ball and bat. No support bowlers. You see there was no one to build pressure to aid wahab. Its as if his 10 overs are the key to success. I thot ajmal and Hafeez were dearly missed. Both are class players and add a lot of depth and variety/options for any captain. The unit as a whole owe a collective failure. There was a lack of hunting pairs in the matches which pak lost may be due to pressure nervousness or may be less exposure to different cricketing surfaces. Bear it in mind these young fast bowlers are new to international cricket and have not played 50+ test matches or 100+ ODIS across world so they are still learning.

Way forward is to evaluate the reasons for failure and infuse lot of fresh blood into the team. Take it slow and build it smoothly. The bunch identified would be serving Pakistani cricket for next 8-10 years so moulding them is very important. Also certain players like the opener Naseer Jamshed or U.Akmal etc needs to be told that if they keep on playing with no sense of responsibility or lack of skills (in fielding) they will be benched. The Pakistani cricket fraternity and administrators have to become a bit stronger on this issue to infuse discipline and clarity of performance based selection over anythin else.

In the end, this team will now go through a transition phase as many star players like misbah afridi and younis retires or leaves permanently. So bear in mind the results during transition phase is like a learning experience. So give time to this new team. Give it 3 years and you will see a world beating side. But they need sincerity and effective guidance. Pls make them tour in Away series in case Home series are not possible to ensure they learn to play in every condition to mould them to handle every surface and become world beaters,,,

are you 12 years old? wasim and akram used to take wickets with swing, they were in different league. Wahab is like johnson, he need help from fielders. He cannot bowl inswing to right handers.

Thats why in shitty fielding side like Pakistan, bowlers always looked for lbw or bowld.

 

[Menace2Society]

Waqar and Wasim achieved excellence because they were competing with each other. Wasim said this on record when Waqar would get a 5fer he would want to get a 5fer and feel anger if he doesn't achieve same standard.

Fast bowlers always hunt in packs.

Asif and Amir were competing but Asif along being incredibly gifted bowler was also a good teacher. He was teaching Amir the art of setting up a batsman over the space of 1-2 overs.

I hoping when Amir returns he performs like he should do and teaches the knowledge gained from Asif to others.

 

[GR!FF!N]

well,pretty much everybody amazed about "Riaz's Scortching Spell",but I really miss yorkers of Akram.Internal politics of PCB has done pretty much damage to make Pakistani Cricket dead already.Why can't they make players like they did before 2000??I've seen so many talented players to vanish into obscurity,the reason,Politics..I wonder where Sohail Tanvir is this days,is he still "recuperating"??I really enjoyed his bowling.

 

[syedali73]

Forgive Mohammad Aamir and bring him back. He is begging for forgiveness from the Nation and Pakistan needs his class of talent back on our side.

No, such players however good they may be must never bring back. Pakistan cricket has seen this low because of these gamblers. Players like him are no players but 5th columns.
