lol......interesting allocation...........but I know who Bipasha will vouch for :p......actually this has caused quite a stir in Pakistan so I am sharing this again

YouTube - Bipasha Basu has a message for Imran Khan



lol......you've been away from the forum for quite some time or so it seems. You went away after starting all this debate.....were you having your high school exams? But it is good to have your humor back online.
What's Bipasha saying in that clip?I can't access youtube right now.

WC year is a **** time to have your board exams. I was in 8th and 11th respectively during the '96 and '99 WCs, so had plenty of time to watch the games. :cool:

Caught an interview of Imran juz now on star cricket.


1. He was certain the Windies side he played in the 80s was the best side he has seen in cricket.

2. Said WSC was the highest standard cricket he has played in.

3. Unequivocal that while tactics are important for a captain, the ability to lead and inspire people and lead by example are more important.


4. Put over county cricket and how much it helps cricketers from the subcontinent

5. Referred to himself mostly as a fast bowler.. SAid he was among 4 great all rounders at the time he played.. Seemed to rate them equally as overall cricketers..

6. Disappointed at seeing the gr8 Pak side that he left never achieve the heights it should have..


7. "hurt" by the spot fixing controversies.. and by seeing talents like ASif and Aamer go waste.


What a champ :)

You must have had your 10th boards smack bang in the middle of this series, I got to watch that chase live on TV. :cool:
I did.. And I still watched all night :) In fact we had exams the day after, EVERY day whenever Lara was batting in that series.. Still rate that 60 odd he made in the first innings of that series as among his finest yet unheralded knocks.. Was looking like one of his monster digs, till he was so unluckily run out, flicking the ball to short leg and having it rebound off the shin pads of that guy and catching him short of the crease as he had gone down the track to play the stroke.. Think it was Langer under the helmet there... :(

The Ind-Aus series of 2001 was going on during my 12th board exams. The 4th day of the Chennai decider was my Chem. exam (with a couple left). I went to the ground on the 3rd day, post-lunch on the 4th day after the exam and on the 5th day. Beat that! :cool:
