The onslaught, blitz and thrust by the visiting greenshirts against the "babes" of the cricket world since last quarter of a century continues in their own backyard in Dhaka as Babar and party inflicts yet another defeat upon their hosts.

The way Pakistani batsmen are struggling to make runs is pathetic.

Time to build a young professional team based on merit and to say goodbye to old guard. They have already had more than their share.

Dhani should be included in playing eleven for 3rd T20I. Why destroying his career?

This sort of one sided games, is not doing Pakistan’s cricket any good.
Only good competitive cricket can really test the players.

Win is good. It would be a lot better if Sohaib Malik, Saheen Shah Afridi, Rizwan should have been rested. Instead Asif Ali, Haider Ali and Dhani should be given chance.
We will give chance to youngsters against strong teams that is no good.

There is no interest in these matches, had PCB played mix of new and old then it might have bought some excitement. Tone deaf PCB.
