Best bowling option for Pakistan in WC

[Richard]

He played Austrlalia at the start of his career when he wasn't impressive.

No, he played Australia pretty recently and did poorly (and against WI at that stage, too).

And if he failed against England in Onedayers, then he had great success against England in test matches!!

He didn't succeed against England in Tests, he had 1 good game and 1 poor one. Not that that matters, in the slightest, anyhow.

As for matches against India and SL, i hope you understand that a pacer playing on dead subcontinental wkts can't be expected to come up with flying colors in all matches.Naveed has impressive record against India, and his record against SL is also a good one!So much so for ur good game /bad game rubbish.

They can expect to do better than he has - more often than not he's been poor against both India and Sri Lanka. Against Sri Lanka he's had 6 bad games out of 7. Nothing whatsoever you can do to change that.

If you can't type preperly yet has the balls to criticize others, then you clearly are completely senseless.

I type correctly 99% of the time, no-one can go without errors indefinately.

 

[Richard]

No, he only had one good game against India, you are living in a fool's paradise if u think he had several good games.

Warne had 4 good games against India, and for the record here they are.

Err, what? Qadir averaged 38.42 in West Indies where his best game was 8 for two-hundred-and-thirty-one!!!!!!; he averaged 52.10 in New Zealand where he never had a single good game (he took 3 one-fors and once managed 7 for the small matter of one-hundred-and-eighty-seven runs; and he averaged 61 in Australia where, once again, he never had a single good game.

.

Ah, here comes *averages*...LOL!

Qadir played a very important role in the drawn test series in WI, a 38 average isn't all that bad considering that his overall average happen to be 33. He did average 52 against NZ but he took 6/160 against them at Auckland(from 4 tests that he played), also against Aus he took five wkts in Melbourne( from just 5 test that he played)
Note: Qadir was always an expensive bowler, his overall average is near 33, but he took wkts for Pakistan and is regarded as one of the best leggies of the world.Qadir wasn't as great as Warne and batsmen went for runs against him, but he did attack them and took valuable wkts.

There have never been and never will be 11 players who are all good against spin in a line-up. Some of the best Indian batsmen are excellent players of spin, but to suggest, as you are that Indian-cricketer=good-player-of-spin is bull**** of the highest order.

Thats what matches shows, all eleven players played Warne well, go and check it for urself

No, he played Australia pretty recently and did poorly (and against WI at that stage, too).

.

Last one day he played was on 6th Feb 2005 against them, maybe its recent for you

Yeah it shouldn't matter even when we take into account that that performance helped his team to win the important test match!

 

[Swervy]

How do you look one's career's performance? there is nothing as such as good game/bad game ratio which in use, averages are still remains a guide !!

mmm..that would be quite an interesting stat I reckon, as long as it was done in a non-subjective way...might get my thinking cap on!!!!

 

[IndianByHeart]

Bull*** against Lanka he had only 4 poor games, and not 6, had it been 6 poor games out of 7 then his average would have been in 50's against them rather than 25

I make several mistake myslef, but don't criticize others on mistakes made by myself.

 

[IndianByHeart]

Warne had 4 good games against India, and for the record here they are.

One of those Great performances include 2 wkts in each innings... Indeed an incredible performance especially judging by the high standard that Warne had set for himself.

 

[Kriketer]

Bowling wise, Pakistan would do well as long as Rana Naved is not there. My choice of bowlers are:

Umar Gul
Rao Ifthikhar
Mohammad Sami
Azhar Mahmood

 

[FRAZ]

I guess
Shahid 5
Shoaib Malik 5
Hafeez2-3
Gul 10
Rana Naveed 10
Kaneria 10
Azhar Mahmood 7-8 overs

 

[Xuhaib]

I guess
Shahid 5
Shoaib Malik 5
Hafeez2-3
Gul 10
Rana Naveed 10
Kaneria 10
Azhar Mahmood 7-8 overs

Shahid and Hafeez are easily 10 over material especially on the slow low tracks of West Indies.

 

[IndianByHeart]

I guess
Shahid 5
Shoaib Malik 5
Hafeez2-3
Gul 10
Rana Naveed 10
Kaneria 10
Azhar Mahmood 7-8 overs

Hafeez is an underrated bowler, and on present form he's better than the likes of Malik and Naveed.Also i think Afridi need to bowl more than 5 overs, his spell will be crucial for Pakisatan.

 

[Prince EWS]

Shahid and Hafeez are easily 10 over material especially on the slow low tracks of West Indies.

And especially given what the rest of the bowling attack will probably look like...

Taking wickets is no good if you're going for enough runs to subjegate it. Qadir, in all examples, did.

Nonsense, tailenders are not good players of anything, never mind quality spin-bowling. There have also been plenty of wholly average Indian batsmen against spin.

 

[Richard]

It's not long ago at all.

 

[Richard]

It didn't, that match was a draw.

And it doesn't matter - at all - if ODIs are the thing in question.
