***Official*** Pakistan and England in UAE

[Howe_zat]

can't believe england are trying to get Ajmal banned because of their ineptitude to face him, really pisses me off.

Trolling?

 

[Cevno]

**** the Pakistani management for not playing Cheema. Clearly weren't watching the last game and went on stats alone. Idiots.

AWTA.

Pakistani fans on here don't seem to rate any of their players (in consensus even) except Ajmal and Younis Khan, IMO.

[Z-Man]

I agree. I do not rate my team highly.
Take Ajmal out of this test series and we will see..

Pakistan relies heavily on individual performances.

 

[Furball]

It'll be interesting to see when Pakistan opt for the new ball.

 

[Daemon]

haha you Pakistani fans are the worst Gambhirers. Learn to enjoy your 5 minutes of success like the rest of us, it might not last very long.

 

[Agent Nationaux]

We'll enjoy it when we win the series.

 

[Agent Nationaux]

BTW Z-man is Ghambir.

 

[Agent Nationaux]

Younis to smash a century next innings.

 

[Agent Nationaux]

Problem with PEWS crappy database is that Pakistan can produce someone extraordinary who nobody has even heard of, which makes his Test team irrelevant.

It will, though the real key will be who really turns up first thing in the morning - if Ajmal starts slowly, then England have a chance of an appreciable lead.

Nah, it's a great tool and it would probably pick better XIs than most of us. Not nice discrediting someone's efforts like that, especially when they've put in so much time for it

Like Indian fans?

I had rather not enjoy than face what Indian fans have to face.

Unfair. I don't agree with Cribb's outlook on cricket either but it's a very well thought out system he's put together and makes a lot more sense than half the posters here.

 

[Agent Nationaux]

You guys know I was just joking. I know he has put in a lot of hard work. But it pisses me off sometimes when he just says, oh that guy is rubbish and this one is better because my system says so.

That's not true. An example of that is right on this page; he rates Junaid ahead of Cheema and Gul, but his database doesn't. And yeah, I knew you were joking - hence the smiley - was just pointing out that our Cribb has feelings too and it wasn't a nice thing to say.

Indeed. I certainly don't agree with all of its findings/suggestions. To judge every player by the exact same set of parameters would be ridiculous. Someone (you, in fact) asked what my database thought the lineup should be so I posted it up; I wasn't putting it forward as the set-in-stone best option; in fact I don't even agree with it myself!
