I wouldnt be so ****y ajaagarkaraja. Agreed that Sami and Shabbir aren't as good as Akhtar, but Akhtar is a real threat.
A real BIG threat. Chopra, Sehwag and Ganguly are nowhere near batting 'gods'. I can see Akhtar getting Ganguly and troubling him very often.
.
I never said Akhter won't be a threat, but one man cannot blast off 5 ultimate batsmen. I do agree that i was slightly off the mark when i included Chopra in my list of class batsmen, but i don't agree with you on Ganguly as Ganguly has a wonderful record against Pak and according to Saeed anwar, Pak fears Ganguly more than they fear Tendulkar!!
I am not saying that Akhter is going to blast through INdians as did Imran i am just saying considering the Passion they Pakistani cricketers have always had and more importantly and more importantly ability to perform beyond their abilities when playing India is the most crucial factor and thats why it (beating SIx Indian God's) is not very out of question.
Akhter is no Imran, nor does he ever does justice with his cricket Like Imran used to do it.I know Pak play with Passion while playing against India( otherwise how on hell can a club player like Afridi would have scored a ton against India in a test match) but mate one guy cannot beat six gods, that only happen in Hindi movies:P .
Yeah it has always been but has Pakistani bowlers have not done that in Past or not.U know the answer.??
Yes they did that , they did that when Indian batting was dependent upon Sachin and there wasn't Yuvraj, Laxman,Sehwag and Chopra to defy Pak bowlers.
Sami played a county season last year, shabir has been signed by another for this season, there is something which makes NON Pakistani people think they are good and ignore people like Pathan, Baliji, oh and the greatest allrounder who is better than Imran Khan for many people i mean Agarkar.
We judge a player by his performance in test matches, in contrast you take pride in how ur player is faring in some county match!!
And if i'm not wrong, Imran has himself praised Ajit and Pathan.Imran may have been great but face it, today Pak team doesn't have a single quality allrounder.I mean Afridi is probably in the team coz of his looks, and Razzak , though a good batter, is a disgrace as a bowler.
Aggrassion"Dude r u on Crack or something, for real man that is funny to even think that.
You ppl think only you can be aggresive on field? face it, Captain Ganguly is an aggressive and innovative captain, Inzi on the other hand is a sleeping giant, how the hell can a fellow how says he loves sleeping captain an international team??
Firstly he is not even chosen to play the whole series he is only picked up for first two ODI's and secondly people thought same about him when he had to face a better Indian Bowling attack in LAst India Tour (Srinath, Prasad, Kumble agarkar in ODI's etc) compared with this aggrasive attack, and as much as i remember he made them all look like laughing stack.
DEAD WRONG ! that abowling attack was much weaker than this attack. Srinath was all class but Prasad was lowsy then and there wasn't any third quality pacer. But today we have pacers of the class of Balaji & Salvi in reserves.
Afridi did well in last test series, but this time he will prove to be a disaster for Pak (just like in the '03 WC)
