PAK Shan Masood's captaincy......
- Thread starter Foxy
- Start date
Thread is about Pakistan cricket
I mean let's be honest, the bar set by Babar was immensely LOW.
But Shan is a clever operator, so no surprise that he's a good captain (will probably show it in PSL too). Issue with him isn't the captaincy, it's the fact his place in the squad is questionable (as well as why he was given the captaincy in the first place...)

Much better captain than Babar. if he carries on scoring, then no questions will be asked. The biggest blunder he made was keeping Abdullah at slip during the second innings. Otherwise, he was good and even though it was a good bowling pitch, taking 20 wickets is an improvement and we competed decently for once.

This is the Shan era lads
i know girls like tall guys, but didn't know its the same for some dudes
Bit early to judge him. Need to give him some home series too. I fear people will want his head after this series even though no Pak captain in recent memory has done well in Aus.
you. comparing a person who is on his first tour as a captain in Australia and doing better than Misbah,sarfraz ie every captain with setting attacking fields with a relatively young squad which only he,babar,shaheen,sarfraz, have played in Australia.He was extremely close to victory and batting like don Bradman.
Him persisting with Abdullah in slips cost us the game tho
I miss the times where captains like IK Wasim would beat you up in the dressing room
Sarfraz had that factor but idiot would do it on the field
Thing was back then, the guy getting beaten up also knew he messed up and chup char mar khale tha. Then came the era of Afridi, Asif, etc. throwing bats at each other in the dressing room.
You make shadab or rizwan captin nothing will change as they have alliances with the current crop of players..
Shan Masood for captain in all formats!
Don’t matter his record is not great in t20 or ODI - Pakistan need a good captain - we have had king bobzy as captain - great player - look where that got us as opposed to sarfaraz who was a brilliant captain.
Strongly agree - Shan Masood needs to take over. Anyone else made captain from the current team it’s going to be the same old story. I think Masood as captain will add some much needed stability and tbh his recent t20 form hasn’t been too bad domestically. Play him in at 3 or 4 where he has shined before in the t20 wc 22
even ashwin called him one of the intelligent and smartest cricketers in an interview which we need

What did his brilliant captaincy achieve for Karachi Kings in the last PSL?
And when he was given a good team he was on top of the table in psl 2020 with multan and reached the eliminator 2
We have good players in the bench but not getting chances as babar and rizwan are the dictators I see this lineup in the future:
Saim
M haris
Shan
Omair bin Yusuf
Haseebullah/salman/ any good spin basher
Irfan khan
Ameer jamal
Arafat minhas
Naseem
Abbas/shaheen/zaman/ihsanullah/waseem
Abrar/mehran mumtaz
This is a good team it fills the modern day requirements, aggressive batters,diversity in bowling which includes having a death specialist,new ball bowler, a bowler who bowls at good length at the deck,then quality spinners(abrar and Mehran and saim if he improves), and two proper allrounders,and batting till 8 or 9
