^ That's not bad at all. The Flowers possess a commendable work ethic. We should benefit somewhat from a guy like that.

Julien Fontaine was with the team previously. Our fielding wasn't any much better under his professional guidance.

I would take all these fielding, bowling, batting coaches and send them to coach the U-19 setup where there's hope of improvement. What the Pakistani team needs is a fitness trainer and a full-time psychiatrist.

Now that Najam Sethi is gone lets start searching for a new coach, new manager and new selection committee again and hope that the court doesn't reverse its decision by the time they are appointed :p

Najam Ashraf / Zaka Sethi should be made PCB Chairman. Only then will both parties be content.

It's hilarious and sad at the same time. Keep playing this musical chairs game and our Cricket will go down the drain. A victim of petty politics.

Zaka Ashraf has been reinstated as PCB chairman for the second time this year, after the Islamabad High Court (IHC) annulled the committee headed by Najam Sethi and all the decisions taken by it.
Here we go again guys.

    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.

    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.
