Pakistan Cricket: Bangladesh v Pakistan Dhaka Test Day 2 - Abbas defends Pakistan's decision of bowling first, but were unlucky

We were unlucky; defends Mohammad Abbas

Mohammad Abbas who was pick of the bowlers on Dhaka test Day 1, and was extremely economical, which resulted in Mohammad Abbas taking five wickets, because I personally observed that it was like Abbas was exerting pressure from one end, but it was eased out, which is not shown from statistics, but as I have been critical of how statistics prone we have been recently, where saying that Shaheen took 100 WTC wickets, but just tell me, how much those 100 WTC wickets benefit Pakistan? I might look skeptic, but this is something we all have to confess, because we as society have been hungry for validation or like we say in Urdu شعبدے بازی, keeping long story short, this is prevalent in Shaheen as well, where Instead of playing for Pakistan, they are playing for their statistics.

Spongy wicket of Day-one

If they had been playing red ball cricket, they would had understood the mechanism of how test match wicket looks, because the way I noticed changes between day one and day two wickets, where bowlers wasn't able to tackle spongy soft wicket, next day (today) when clay settled, we are seeing Mohammad Abbas top of the tally with 5 wickets, with stingy economy rate, but Shaheen released that pressure by not picking up a line, because in test match cricket, bowlers bowl in tandem, it is not possible you bowl like Superman where all of bowling capabilities in one bowler isn't possible.

Specialized bowlers

If it was time of Shoaib Akhtar's prime, and he got such a wicket like what we got yesterday, he would had hit the deck hard, making marks on the wicket, because it would support spinners later on, this is how test match cricket is being played, Pakistan won the Carlton & United 2000 series in Australia, because Pakistan was able to utilize the conditions by using their bowlers.

Either

Shaheen and other bowlers not willing to do this job, instead they all want bowling around them, this is megalomania, and not blaming Shaheen and Co., overall Pakistani society is like that, no maturity at all, instead ruining young players just because they look like themselves, this is the same I have been facing right now, and this documentation is the reason I want to document this discrepancy.

Everything is Validated

This behavior clearly mentions that everything is validated, but none have the tendency to think that how such megalomaniac behavior is messing with Pakistan's reputation internationally, but these statistics mongers do not care for Pakistan's reputation, instead they want to satisfy their inner urge of validation.
