Saeed Ajmal has taken few wickets but this is not int'l cricket. After revamping his action he has clearly lost the control and magical deliveries with whom he used to completely outplay the batsmen. For me its all over for Ajmal.

Whereas, on the other hand, Muhammad Nawaz seems impressive.

Atlast batting clicked but still bowling a big concern. Quetta were on course with 97-3 in 10 overs with Lhr having Bravo as their strike bowler with 120 Km/h pace. Seriously what kind of selection is this with no pace and all spin.
Umar Gull in this tournament has a bowling figures of 14-0-140-4.

Altough i was supporting shehzad earlier but i guess he needs break to rework on his decline of performance
Plus sohaib maqsood also proved himself a useless player even in psl so it was a good call to drop
Right now ppl are complaining about khuram manzoor inclusion which i think its too early to judge pcb gave him a chance becuase he recently scored 5 centuries in 8 matches
So it is Good for players playing in domestic and performing there so they get encouraged that they can get selected in the team regardless you get chance in psl or not
Previously ppl were bashing pcb for not including rafatullah mehmood they gave him chance he proved useless and got discarded
Same goes with sohail khan got selected for worldcup and he was just fine in worldcup
Pcb earlier gave a chance to sadaf hussain as well but we failed to impress
Same goes for anwar ali when the world saw his performance in under 19 everybody lamented pcb why he is not given chance and pcb did after sometime but at that time pakistan already had good bowlers and he couldnt impress once given chance
Later on he improved in competitive cricket and called back
Same goes with wahab he was dropped and later called back series against india selection was done on his previous 5wicket haul against india and he got hammered by kohli and dhawan later bashed on twitter i remember he was pissed by ppl reaction because ppl were abusing his mother
Then he improved and later called back now he is goto bowler
There are many others too like sarfaraz and so on..
So now when pcb doesnt select ppl they get bashed when selects yeh kya kerdya
I am pretty sure this is the last chance for khurram manzoor if he found worthless he will be discarded for good like nasir jamshed
And i am pretty sure he will quiy critics by his performance all the best who got selected in the squad hope they do well
Plus i was thinking about asghar inclusion but i guess we are looking for those in the team who can come handy with the bat too we are having trouble finding good batsmen even in psl old guns scoring runs nothing come up as standout performer with the bat

One more thing captain has a voice too when selecting teams so i am pretty sure this decision must have a afridi's voice too , Afridi didn't have a confidence on ahmed shehzad i remember he already warned ppl after nz series loss about getting axed and by no performance from top order so it was a wakeup call so shehzad failed in starting psl later he performed with the help of KP
So pcb thought we shud see if he can again score some run as he might have got his form back he again failed
Pcb bought time from icc just to decide and i guess it was aright thing

Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming. -
SolitarySoldier:
if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff. -
SolitarySoldier:
Phil keeps talking about breaking barriers to gaming, making it accessible on all platforms yada yada, while killing competition and creativity at the same time. the fact that i actually believed him for a second lol

SolitarySoldier:
"These changes are not a reflection of the creativity and skill of the talented individuals at these teams or the risks they took to try new things" ... seems to me that's exactly what it is

Microsoft deserves all the hate they can get. Seriously i can't explain how much i want to curse them out. -
XPremiuM:
They could've sold the studios instead of closing them, but the nazi bastards just didn't want competition down the road.
-
XPremiuM:
What's the f*** is wrong with them? I mean really? Have they completely lost it? F***ing retards.

XPremiuM:
So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.

Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.Necrokiller said:
