after imran khan retired, not a single paki player has had the abilty to keep the team together!...they were still formidable when wasim akram and waqar younis were playing...and guys like inzi, abdul razzak were at their peak... now all mediocre players with a confused skipper!
just how he have used his bowlers...he dint even let gul and sohaib akhtar complete their 10 overs and him self bowled 8 overs that also gave so much of runs...pakistan is in need of a real good captain..

In the previous match he was a good captain because Pak won. This match he is not bcoz Pak lost!!!!!!
Its extremely easy to keep saying he shoud have done this/not have done this ... blah blah. But making decisions out there calls for real bravery. I am not talking for or against Malik. Its a curse in any sport. Now Dhoni is considered to be a very good captain bcoz India is winning. If they falter in New Zealand, then the same Dhoni will be called negative, not willing to take risks, no plan B or if there was one and dint work out either, then he does not have patience, etc.

i think pakistan is no longer remain a good side. because of its inexperienced players, it is labelled in competence with likes west indies, bangladesh and zimbabwe. We want them to grow stronger so that india pakistan matches can be enjoyed as before. Now India being the best side in world cricket along with Australia, and south africa, will not be justified if compared with pakistan cricket team. Pakistan cricket team is really very weak and only few good performance can save them from losing but hardly we will find them dominating as before
