Eto jomkalo match thread..............khela to Ugandar shate naki..........

[zainab]

I hope they drop Tamim, he is very unreliable and so reckless. Sakib is injured and is being saved for the first match against the West Indies which is the right thing, but then he will be out of practice, unless he is a bit fit to play in one of the warm up matches in South Africa.
Shocked to see Uganda beat Kenya, so our boys should go in for the kill. I am hoping that one day, they play like Sri lanka and australia, they guys attack and strike right away, it does not matter if they are playing against a weak team, they take no chances.

[Rommel]

If Ash wins the toss, he should choose to bat first no matter what. We need to see who can actually perform in Twenty20's. We know Nazimuddin can but we need to see other players prove themselves. If Ash chooses to field first, it will be a big mistake. Chasing a Uganda target of 110 will not help us at all. I want us to bat first and put up a big score of atleast 200. Also does anyone know how Pakistan compares to the likes of South Africa and the West Indies. Is Pak better? or Is South Africa and West Indies better?

[Nafi]

We should bat first definitely

[Miraz]

Only one change in the playing XI. Nadif in Riyad out.

No Junaid.

[Omio]

congratez Mr blazin for ur 1st match thread..

good luck Tiger.

[Rommel]

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Riyad is out!!! But I wish Junaid would get get a chance.

Thats stupid. Whats Tamim doing in the playing 11? He has failed in both innings he played.

Junaid should have been given a chance against the weakest team. Those are the practice matches right? so everyone should have been in the squad atleast once. Ziaur, Junaid and others who didnt play in the first two matches. I just don't understand the tour management and also the captain. Are they scared of Uganda or what?

[Rizvi]

Why?? What has Junaid proven so far that makes him a hands down decision to replace Tamim??

They both have been struggling and at this point, we need it more for Tamim to get back his confidence!!!

Bummer. Maybe Ash and company know something we don't. Riyad's exclusion is not really surprising after his last two at bat adequately exposed his technical limitations. I guess they didn't want to replace him with a "Tamim-type" player like JIS, or a "Farhad-type" player like Zia.

Facing Ugandan bowling is the best chance for Tamim to get some of that increasingly rare groove back and I'm looking forward to seeing what he can do with this opportunity. He remains one of our best fielders BTW.

Though his T20 bowling remains outrageously expensive and hence pathetic, and he continues to drop sitters at second slip, it is a good opportunity for Farhad also to do the heavy hitting he was selected to do.

All in all, not a bad idea to give the ones with some ability at least 3 consecuite matches to get it right, but an appropriate curve needs to be used when facing the likes of Uganda. As long as Farhad doesn't bowl again, I can live with this decision.

Let's see what Nadif can do, and those walking on thin ice manage the pressure.

and what did tamim do ?tamim so far could;nt prove anything in these 2 matches and as for junaid,how can we even say something about him if he didnt even play a single match ?so junaid should had been brought in the playing 11 list,at least one match should had been given to him but no,it was akram he did this,this akram guy sucks as a selector he is so unfair.

I thought no one cared because the match was against Uganda... thats why I opened it 10 minutes before match.. but then I realized it was only 24 hours 10 minutes...
