Wrote about my first bowling hero when i started watching cricket as a kid, Mohammad Amir. As he probably retires from international cricket once again, i looked at how his spell in the CT17 final represents his evolution as a cricketer. There will never be another like him.
"It was not the farewell anyone would have foreseen at any point in his career, but perhaps it was the perfect one." 🏏

Do whatever you want, call him Moulana to insult him, shout Jai Shree Ram at him to intimidate him, nothing is gonna stop him from rightfully exercising his religion off the field without harming anyone
Ramiz when Saim got out on 17
"Sad to see someone throw away his wicket and his talent like that"
Ramiz when Rizwan got out with the same score
"Rizwan really had to go for it, that’s his go-to area"
@SanaSaeed
Reminds me of the 1857 war of independence in India. The British spread false rumours about "innocent British women" being mass r*ped by those rising up against British colonial tyranny, to justify the horrific atrocities they committed in response
PCB has terminated Haris Rauf’s central contract because he refused to play Tests in Australia. He will not be given NOCs for foreign leagues until June 30, 2024.
Haris earlier this season was asked to play Tests with an agreement to bowl 10-12 overs per day.
@PakTrainies
She was covering her head on her own with something before he helped, why don’t we leave her alone if she wants to do whatever she wants 🤷🏻♂️
Wicket Keeper batsman Mohammad Rizwan is out of the series against NZ. His hamstring injury is quite serious and he might not go to the tour of England and Ireland, PCB doctors have sought opinion from British doctors
#PAKvNZ
I swear seeing Hassan Ali’s inclusion I can just give one justification that how Allah makes a way for those who are patient and wait for their turn.Nigga always supported the team never said any shit or indulged himself in conspiracy .Who thought that naseem would get injured
Ramiz on comms "Afghanistan’s success much like Pakistan’s is because of the two openers, like Babar and Rizwan"
And then Gurbaz goes in the first over 🤣
@CoverDriveCric
It’s because Asif has that cool charsi bad boy persona that every desi guy who worships Tommy Shelby starts salivating for.
Hasan is not afraid of living his life happily and cheerfully no matter what happens on the field, and since they can’t relate to it, they just hate
Even if, Islamically, not being in the mood isn’t a "valid excuse", are you fine with being intimate with someone who clearly doesn’t want to? How can you even call it intimacy? How does it even make you happy?
What is the obsession with changing Gaddafi Stadium’s name??? The Rawalpindi Stadium is literally called Rawalpindi Stadium. Karachi Stadium is “National Stadium.” They are way better candidates in my opinion. Fully support the idea tho.
Shan suggested the off-side field first, then after a ball, Mir Hamza wanted a third fielder, and then Babar agreed with him, but credit goes fully to Babar? 🤔
Pakistan fans' obsession with Ramiz over Ehsan Mani and Wasim Khan, (who were miles better and made Babar captain too) really explains the rise of populism
why are the fans wearing Pakistan jersey when Pakistan is already out of the tournament lol and why is he running like a dog is chasing him? and why does he think an Indian would abuse him when they would be happy that Pakistan is out of tournament bc of him
Abrar Ahmed has been ruled out of the T20I series against New Zealand due to not being fully fit.
He will return home and continue his rehab at the NCA.
#NZvPAK
Munro playing while risking injury, Azam playing his first final, that too in Karachi, Imad coming in clutch again… all beautiful.
But Naseem coming in after a collapse and smoking fearless boundaries, and Hunain coming in last ball after two awful matches and winning it 😭❤️
Blast from the past....
How clear he was about his ideas,his priorities was clear....
The most professional CEO PCB ever had.... Wasim Khan cricket Fans miss you 😭
Being a med student let me tell u , this retard will be such a favourite subject for students of Psychology & neurology, this level of hatred & obsession can be a whole assignment for students to study, y'all don't get shock a bit if in future he blames Babar for his birth too.
This guy was blaming the bowlers for the USA loss where his idolo was 10 off 24 in the first 10 overs.
It took Shadab to start hitting for him to also cross 100 SR 😭
And we still restricted them to 119, a par score at best that day.
You need a special kind of stubbornness to try to find ways to blame the bowlers for that loss 😭
@asadfacts
Bangladesh is basically a semi-dictatorship, but the upside of that is that it provides stability and consistency, just like China's government system. In India, the Congress was in government for decades, and when the BJP came in power, they continued the same policies

@mjs_DC
He or any other Democrat simply don’t have the guts and convictions. They’re gonna hand everything over to fascists, just like every other liberal/centrist (just look at France, Italy and soon Germany)
@OsmanSamiuddin
Cmon, nobody’s insulting or hurting her, and you’re surely aware of cultural norms behind it (not that i follow them to that degree). Comments like these are just fodder for the anti-Muslim hate machine
Because most people abusing Pakistani players on social media are Indian
And he must have had a bad experience with Indian fans in the World Cup clearly

#PSL2024
14 wickets, 305 runs, SR of 142
Winning captain
Only Pakistani player to have 300+ runs and 10+ wickets in a PSL season
Shadab Khan, Pakistan’s best T20 cricketer
Ramiz ka bhi naam le lo, destroyed pitches and FTP, and didn’t have any competent coaches.
I guess it wouldn’t help with farming interactions from your FC, criticising their favourite chairman
Pakistan pacers in this World Cup
Haris Rauf
7 wickets, average 14, ER 6.7
Mohammad Amir
7 wickets, average 10, ER 4.5
Naseem Shah
5 wickets, average 14, ER 5.9
Shaheen Afridi
5 wickets, average 21, ER 6.6
Imad Wasim bragged and showed off his smoking skills in PSL which was considered the coolest moment by many. Now this is his fitness(or commitment) level.
The camera-op/director's fixation on player's wives and team owners is getting a little nauseating for my taste. There's a huge crowd in the stadium. Lots of other people to look at. Or you could just focus on the cricket 🤷♂️
Abdul Rehman is the best coach in Pakistan, best person to ask questions. But of course toxic journalists had to make a scene. Well done
@ahsannagi
for not giving in to these people 👏🏼
Karachi Journalist boycotted Multan sultan's press conf on manager's misbehaviour. Journalists asked captain or senior player for conf but manager said we will not entertain according to you and if you dont want to sit, you can go .we respect every franchise and expect same
Saying "the team will collapse without Babar and Rizwan" after watching the batting lineup collapse when they are in the team is… a choice. Maybe we’ll still collapse, but we’d at least have batters who actually try
And if you need luck to beat *USA* on a 180 pitch, you’re bad
After reading a hundred tweets about this on my timeline: I say Pakistan weren’t particularly bad. They could have won either game with just a little bit of luck.
This team will collapse without Babar and Rizwan. Babar needs to get his form back, yes, but they certainly cannot
What I like about this picture the most is that both bride & groom are visible. Clearly Imam is more evolved than some of his teammates, wish them both a very happy married life!
Start with Babar and Rizwan, and then the others. They have made this team about themselves, instilled this defensive mindset, and today it has proven yet again how pathetic it truly is.
