The Shoaib Malik 'Support' Thread

Im not denying that Younis Khan is a good test batsman but I thought he was suppose to be a good guy; a true role model for how a Pakistani cricketer should be.

I thought Younis Khan (the person) was the pride of Pakistan

Young players might adjust to the international level and provide more to the team.

Sometimes I am shocked at the Cricket knowledge of the people at PP... Support Malik for Pakistan National team (test, ODI or T20) are you kidding me... On what basis??? - Just fielding...
Malik is not a batsman or bowler of international class...
As a bowler he is not the best Spinner in Salkiot Stalion Team (Hassan and Rehman are before him), forget about Pakistan.
As a batsman he has played 30+ tests and tried to comeback 13 times, that shows you how skillful he is as a batsman, this despite being Captain and appears to have lot of TC Skills or sources up the ranks in PCB...
He is not better than any of our top four spinners (Ajmal, Rehman, Afridi, Hafeez)... Do we want to bring him as a batsman?? - There are many other who are much better than him, even in this T20 Super 8 tournament...
What he has done recently at international level, against England and or even Bangladesh???
If people here are so supportive of Malik, then this forum will start to loss the value we think it bring to the Pakistan Cricket followers... A tried and test failure to be brought back for no good reason...
If Malik is the standard of all rounder (batsman or bowler) then good luck to Pakistan Cricket...

[Inziquicksingle]

^Dont forget he is also the only top order International batsman (show me another if there is one) who has failed to score a 40 in 30 consecutive international innings.

[Inziquicksingle]

.

[miandadrules]

Dermot Reeeve was one of the most successful English domestic captains and also a similar player to Malik. I don't remember there being a clamour for him to be in the team nor for him to be captain.

Does Reeve have a better FC record than Malik?

[Black Zero]

T20 is an international innings ...

but the argument is about scoring 40 runs in an inngs..

That argument lose all credibility if you include T20 innings with test innings.

since when it's a matter of "shame" when you don't score 40 in t20?

Dermot Reeve was a legend compared to this coward and joke of a cricketer.

[shakil]

I despise him because of the politics he bring to the team.

Otherwise, he is just okay for T20 and ODIs

Still time to give captaincy to malik!

[LethalSami]

that was a good catch OR u know how hard is it to get malik OUT

[Asif321]

enough now .. i cant see him again in team .. should b dropped until
T20 WC is over

[Black Zero]

isn't it obvious the result if we pick players with a proven losing record even in domestic

[Black Zero]

T20 is all about, who is leading the team :SS

He was in the T20 side. Cant get into the ODI side at the moment. Your acting like his international career is over. lol

Since your here SS, can you answer the question in my sig.

If YK is such a great guy who is the pride of Pakistan, how come he doesnt retire from ODIs and give youngsters a chance.

This question is like a plague to you Younis Khan fanboys. All of you go back into your holes after this.

[saeedhk]

Hard to believe how some people can support Malik.He is nothing but a ******** who has no place in the team.

[pakistanalltheway]

malik has fans ?
lol learn something new every day

[Black Zero]

Misbah/YK/Hafeez/Azhar.... not really my kind of ODI players...

[PB]

He should be there in place of Younis Khan.

Atleast Malik can chip in with his bowling and fielding...And would probably bat better then YK.

[Riff]

I have asked the same question before in a YK thread. Still no response from you Younis Khan fanboys

And what is wrong with answering the question here? lol

Your just making excuses now SS

[OmaIR1]

Shoaib Malik should be in place of Younis for sure..

[speed]

shoaib malik is a decant player and should be captain when misbah retires from odi.

In odi he should be in place of yk

[Aymeking]

include him in place of Younus khan

[saeed-sohail]

Since oct 2009 YK averages 27 in odi cricket which is very poor and he deserves to be dropped but some idiots want to replace him with a guy who averages shameful 13 in the same period of time. YK has 10 fifties in that time and shameless Malik had 0.

[Warfare]

LOL please, no YK and DEFINITELY no Malik.

YK sucks in ODIs but Malik sucks even more and both should have never played as many LOIs as they have.

[truthseer]

I just want to point out how true this post has proved since 2009 when it was posted

no comment on my correct prediction?

Its not a problem with either YK, Afridi, Misbah, Azhar and Hafeez...
Problem is with the combination and using the resources intelligently

Im not asking you to compare YK with malik

Im talking about YK

If he has been such a poor performer over the years in ODIs why doesnt he step around and give youngsters a chance?

And how can you YK fanboys regard him as the pride of Pakistan when he is no different from the rest of the players who think about their own spot?

Stop trying to avoid answering my question by keep bringing up Malik.

Just admit it YK fanboys, you have no answer!

[Riff]

Where has the hate brigade gone now?

The "Malik's international career is over" crew?

Thankyou Iqbal Qasim

Terrific squad. World Cup is ours

[the Great Khan]

Yes lets continue to celebrate mediocrity..youll dissapeatr again when he fails like has had done recently..

lol.The only one disappearing is you buddy. Check post #6841

And when did I disappear if I was the last guy to post in this thread before today?

Keep crying bro. I know your upset that Malik has been selected for the WC squad

[LethalSami]

Iqbal Qasim is an incompetent selector........no wonder the state PCB is in.

even Shoaib Malik wouldn't select himself

[saeed-sohail]

Originally Posted by Riff Where has the hate brigade gone now? The "Malik's international career is over" crew? Thankyou Iqbal Qasim Terrific squad. World Cup is ours

Let me know when Malik the talentless wonder scores an international 50. It will be some three years and 50 games in sep.

[LethalSami]

When was the last time Malik hit a TON??? whenever he married Sania Mirza

[shah_1]

The guy is a champion . We will surely see him proudly lifting the world T20 trophy with his man of the series trophy as well.

[freelance_cricketer]

India series coming up, 3 matches with us will take his average to 40s again.

[pakistanalltheway]

Mr.SS your response to my posts at #6800, #6825 and 6854 is still pending

And they ask the same questions to which you have no answer.

But according to these fans of useless Khan I am the one who disappears

[Zamee]

Riff your stay will be just like Shoaib Malik ;) Short and quick.

[Akmal Dynasty]

Our future captain in all 3 formats

INSHALLAH he will come back strongly and takes his captaincy back from hafeez in next 6 months. I see him leading PAK in 2015 WC

[shah_1]

He is as strong as steal. . On his day he can make world class bowlers look like village cricketers. He is a champion and the Pakistani real sher. His batting ability make him stand apart from other cricketers, his mesmerizing batting with the most graceful style can wow the crowd and would pay anything to watch him. He is our future captain that is for sure not the minow basher aka Hafeez.

[saeed-sohail]

Malik the mediocrity since 1 oct across all formats.


Career averages
Span Mat Inns NO Runs HS Ave BF SR 100 50 0 4s 6s

filtered 2009-2012 41 43 1 633 58 15.07 1025 61.75 0 1 2 64 2

[saeed-sohail]

Now average of 15 and one 50 in 41 games is the worst run for any batsman in history of Pakistan. Shame on selectors for picking this mediocrity.

[saeed-sohail]

Now Malik fans always have a go at YK I will tell you why........


Career averages

YK in the same time period averages 35 which is 20 runs more per innings then mediocre Malik. He has nineteen 50+ scores compared to 1 fifty+ score by mediocrity Malik.

^^^^^

Read post #6854 again

Its virtually the same response to which you had no answer to. lol

I have replied to this before and will say it again. This thread is about Malik open a thread on YK and will give you a reply and believe me for me team comes first and I won't be beating around the bush and defend poor odi form of YK regardless of him being one of the best test batsman in the world.

There is no need for another thread which will only contain two posts. lol

Its a pretty simple question that can be replied in one post.

Im sure you wont defend YK's poor ODI form but what I want to know is that if YK wants to hog a spot in the ODI team despite being mediocre for so long and keep youngsters out in the process, then doesnt that mean he is no better than the rest?

Lets just accept that he is as ego-centric like the rest of Pakistani players and keep it moving
