I'm not sure how accurate this is but 17 T20 MOM
And 14 ODI MOM
Incredible.

It probably almost exactly mirrors how many games we've won since 2013. We pretty much only win when he has a blinder. In terms of a cricketing hero for a particular country in terms of actually contributing to wins its without equal.

Oh and 2 MOM in test matches

Either of Stubbs or Bavuma, has an opportunity to post a massive personal best here. They've got days to bat.

I actually don't dislike him...he's actually got a pretty decent record. But my point is you can't count his (or anyone elses) stat padding against Rwanda or Gambia or (most of the) qualifier nations. You can perhaps include stats against a Namibia or Netherlands since they've gone to World Cups and even won a game or two.secretzimbo wrote: ↑Fri Nov 29, 2024 9:50 amIf Raza is overrated what on Earth does that make the rest of our squad?
You don’t like him but he’s single handedly kept us afloat for the past few years.
Again, someone needs to find the stat of how many MOTM awards he’s won for us the past few years. Crazy.
He’s also done well and performed well in the various overseas leagues he’s been in, except for maybe his second IPL.

He didn't get picked up in the IPL. Of the member nations only Zim and Bangladesh haven't got a player there. If we didn't have to keep playing Mozambique, Burkina Faso and Sierra Leone we'd get some more exposure.

Shakib and Fizz have had long IPL careers. Litton Das was a one season wonder a couple of seasons ago.
