    *Official* Ashes Series Thread

    Yes it must be tuff, it would be tuff for any side's skipper whose team is taking on Australia in Australia and especially when his top 4-5 bowlers are down with injuries!

    *Official* Ashes Series Thread

    England is against a very very strong team, and they have additional problem of countless injuries. With a full fledge squad and against a different opponet, England would have been faring much better!

    *Official* South Africa vs Pakistan Series

    The PCB boss recently said that one player had problems with his arm( Akram), and one had problem with his leg (Ahter) and then there are players "JIn ka demag kharab hai"(who have an attitude problem). Akhter should better remain fit and play well throughout the WC, if he can't do that in WC...

    *Official* South Africa vs Pakistan Series

    For once the Pak cricket selectors made the right decision of not sending Anwar as a replacement to Akhter to SA tour.Anwar is badly out of practice and would have fared poorly in test series against SA, which in turn might have resulted in Anwar being axed from the World Cup squad!

    *Official* South Africa vs Pakistan Series

    One cannot judge a team from a single match,Pak is capable of bouncing back, however i have a feeling that Pak will lose this series 4-1 or so as they don't have a set pair of openers and also because Pak have a very poor record against SA!. As for the bowlers, i thought Saqlain did well, gave...

    *Official* South Africa vs Pakistan Series

    Pakistan batting flopped badly today, and even though Elahi was the top scorer with 35, it were the slow innings by both the openers that resulted in added pressure on the middle order and the batting simply collapsed. Razzak was totally offcolor, probably his worst ever spell, Sami was...

    *Official* South Africa vs Pakistan Series

    Saeed is expected to announce retirement from International cricket in a week or so. He has been dejected lately on being dropped from the team by the seletors , but he himself is partly to be blamed for it.Lately he has been a shadow of a player he once was , and he did nothing to convince the...

    I wonder what Pybus saw in Elahi? Elahi was always a bad bad choice, he's only in the team because of Pybus and he will be a big failure against the Afrikans!

    Thirty probables named in squad for the World Cup

    Misbah should be in the team in any case.There should be 4 mid order batmen and Misbah should be the 4th one. I still think Azhar should be in the team even though he won't get a chance to show his form b/f the WC.But if Akmal does come up with a brilliant performance in SA, then perhaps Pak...

    Thirty probables named in squad for the World Cup

    Azhar is out for four weeks and as such won't be able to play in the comming series, but he has a good record in SA and is a more than useful allrounder. Rashid should only be selected if he's 100 percent fit, if so then he should be the man for the cup.I don't think Pak is going to select 2...

    Thirty probables named in squad for the World Cup

    I'm not sure about Nazir, he has been in poor form since a long time and is still struggling. Anwar can only stage a come back if Elahi fails in SA , but Anwar needs to get some runs in domestic cricket. I don't think there is any need for 2 WKs, either Rashid or Akmal should be selected. Azhar...

    Yeah he did well against a depleted Zimb bowling line up, some bowlers were said to be schol kids!

    *Official* Zimbabwe v Pakistan Tests & ODIs

    Not sure about that, from what i've learnt Saeed is not going to be picked for the SA series(test and onedayers) then on what basis is he going to get a recall? especially since it will be the last series in which Pak players will be in action b4 WC. The only way Saeed is gonna make it, is if...

    Rashid Latif retires

    Akmal is a very talented WK batter, and the good thing about him is that he can open the innings in onedayers( does that in domestic cricket) However he will be tested against SA, if he does well then he might get the nod for the WC! However since he's inexperianced, it would be better if Pak...

    Rashid Latif retires

    A bit too honest, a bit stupid ( having Moin in the team as a batsman when Rashid was captain, was like shooting on the foot) and didn't shared a good relationship with Akram (unlike Moin)

    Ball Tampering

    So you think Akhter was tampering the ball right in front of the umpires ?:D, the umpires only saw the ball that had already been tampered ( i'm not questioning that) but surely they weren't watching Akhter altering the shape of the ball! [Edited on 16/11/2002 by yorker]

    Ball Tampering

    I did not saw the match but am wondering as to how the umpires came to the conclusion that it was Akhter who tampered with the ball and not Waqar or the other pacers? Was Akhter caught tampering on TV footage?? Waqar has been involved in tampering in the past, such a captain will encourage...
