The unavoidable trends are blowing through Pakistan cricket after the retirements of Misbah-ul-Haq and Younis Khan.
Its belongings were there to see at Abu Dhabi and Dubai, where the first and second Tests were played against Sri Lanka. The playing lineup was extraordinary. Three quick bowlers and the solitary spinner instead of Misbah's turn substantial lineup. A quiet and figured commander was supplanted by one who froze at key snapshots of the amusement.
There was another slip cordon rather than a grinning Younis Khan at second slip happily tolerating any edges traveling his direction. Furthermore, there was a disappointed Asad Shafiq dropping practically every find coming his direction. In the long run, and for the first run through, Fortress Abu Dhabi was broken.
The fortress set down step by determined step under Misbah's administration was thumped down with full power.
This tumble from fortune isn't the first run through this has occurred in Pakistan cricket, and judging by past patterns, it may not be the last. Each time a time of strength has finished, it has been supplanted by a turbulent one, ailing in ability to know east from west as well as any sense whatsoever. We have never had a progression design set up, at any rate not a decent one.
Unmistakably, Pakistan has played some of its best cricket amid these turbulent periods.
However, as Table 1 appears, periods of accomplishment were far and couple of after an unbelievable skipper. It plainly shows the failure of the amusement's managers to adapt to change. They were not set up for what was to take after once the skipper chose to retire until tomorrow. The effect of their limitation and poor basic leadership capacities is obviously noticeable through the tables underneath.

The most exceedingly awful stages regarding comes about have been those following the retirements of Abdul Hafeez Kardar, Hanif Mohammad and Inzamam-ul-Haq. Obviously, there were visit changes in captaincy inside brief timeframes after these skippers left.
Seemingly, the post-Inzamam period was the most exceedingly bad, in which no arrangement was won and five distinct chiefs selected in a traverse of three years. Nearly, the record is genuinely great in the period following the retirement of Mushtaq Mohammad, or so it appears.
In the event that the arrangement triumph at home against a modest positioned Sri Lanka is prohibited, we are left with a somewhat poor Win/Loss proportion of 0.40 amid this stage.
Man is supposed to be the maker of his destiny. It is only partly true. He can make his destiny, only in so far as he is allowed by the Great Power.
