Why Rizwan a problem at No.4, a complete thread. Opinions in for and against both are welcome
M Rizwan overall strike in 2025 is 71% which gives you the hint about his journey in the ODIs and mostly on the good scoring venues. I am covering his SR in the first 20-30 balls in each innings with dot balls
Match 1: PAKvNZ group stage 8 Feb
NZ Target 331, Rizwan 3 runs on 11 balls with 8 dot balls
Match 2: PAKvSA TARGET 353 12 FEB
At mid stage of chase, PAK 175/3, Agha 42 of 45, Rizwan 43 runs on 61 balls with 32 dots in it with Req rate passes 8. It was Agha Salman who holds this innings otherwise Rizwan could have let the game slip out with the dot balls. Though appreciate his not out innings
TRI-NATION FINAL 14 FEB PAK V NZ
Rizwan 46 of 76 SR 60 with he scored 13 runs in 39 balls which killed the momentum of the team totally. He total played 49 dot balls out of 76
CT25 PAKvNZ 19 Feb Target 321
3 on 14 with 11 dot balls
CT25 PAKvIND Rizwan 46 of 77, 59.74 SR, here Rizwan did the damage again by scoring 12 on 29 balls and overall he played 43 dot balls out of 77
PAKvNZ 1st ODI MAR 29, 2025 TARGET 345, Rizwan 30 of 34 balls, 15 dot balls but decent SR but failed to score big
PAKvNZ 2nd ODI, Target 293
Rizwan 5 on 27 balls, SR 18, 24 dot balls out of 27 balls
PAKvNZ 3RD ODI, TARGET 265
Rizwan 37 of 32, SR 115, only 9 dot balls but failed to score big
PAKvWI 1ST ODI, TARGET 281
Rizwan 53 of 69 balls, SR 76, 31 dot balls out of 69 total. Left the team in between as RR was 7.76 when got out
PAKvWI 2ND ODI, Rizwan scored 1 run on 18 balls, total scored 16 on 38 balls, SR 42, 29 dots out of 38.
Now by going all this data, Rizwan either failed in a innings in a important match or player too many dot balls to kill the momentum of the batting. He best effort was against SA in which Agha Salman is the aggressor at start where Rizwan was to slow in the first phase of his batting.
This data is enough to judge what's gone for Pakistan with Rizwan at 4, and interestingly, he hasn't left his spot despite better players in the lineup were present on diff occasions like Tayyab, Salman, Hassan etc.
