    a great allrounder for sure ...if not for the allegations against him of ball tampering.

    Worst bowler to take n or more wickets in Tests?

    Ramiz Raja: Don't crucify Afridi | Cricket | ESPN Cricinfo It would be better if you read this article.Here Rameez is not at all blaming PAK bowlers for tampering. Infact he claims tampering to be made legal. but he indeed states in detail the existence of ball tampering

    Worst bowler to take n or more wickets in Tests?

    What are you saying ? Botham didn't include any others means he thought all others to be cheats? Yes my statement is off base & irrational...That is why Sarfaraz Nawaz,AamirSOHAIL,Shahbaz Sherif, Sandhu,Jhon Reid and a lot others accused Imran of tampering. You must not forget that Flintoff...

    Worst bowler to take n or more wickets in Tests?

    Yes... some of you only have such sarcastic statements to counter my claim. Another one like 'Sherif in disguise' etc etc.That makes me more to stick on to my stance on Imran.

    i am not sure as to whether you would have read my first post in this topic or not.There i have clearly stated that several players might have done it.but Imran to me was the main person. i have read several anecdotes from several opposition players,umpires,his own team players etc relating him...

    Worst bowler to take n or more wickets in Tests?

    Once Botham came out with his list of top 100 sportsmen.He only included 2 cricketers Viv & Warne in his list .The journalist quite deliberately and provocatively asked Botham as to whether Imran belonged to in his top 100 or not ? Botham replied 'No he was not good enough. it is not a...

    Worst bowler to take n or more wickets in Tests?

    were they Imran's disciples? Apart from Steyn who is a genuine great bowler ? Zak, Anderson,Lee all might had swung the old ball a bit.But i don't think any opponents accused them of tampering.

    Worst bowler to take n or more wickets in Tests?

    i am not sure as to whether ball tampering existed or not, atleast on a large scale before Imran khan's days. But in Imran's days he was the most severe exponent of this treachery act.Several others too might had been involved in this. But as some one who even resorted to bottle tops to...

    Worst bowler to take n or more wickets in Tests?

    any bowler with what ever figures, be it great or mediocre , if achieved thru moral means deserves his milestones. On the other hand ,even bowlers who achieved great success with cheating like ball tampering will always be non deserving candidates in my list. Based on that, Imran Khan who was a...

    Did Imran Khan use to do intense ball tempering frequently?

    it would be better if you would not manipulate things like ' The truth is you already know this but pretends not to know it'. first of all if i knew about it i have no hesitation in admitting to it.secondly what i wanted to know about was the truth in allegations against Imran's ball tampering...

    Did Imran Khan use to do intense ball tempering frequently?

    i know you are a deep Imran admirer. and so was myself...but the difference with me is that i am an Indian. so you may wonder as to why all this mess is ? the answer is 'greatness transcends even enemies'.during my days of serious watching cricket in my teens, that 87 Ind-Pak series hurt me...
