Aye, either that or the Sri Lanka series a couple of months later. Of course we stayed there for about two minutes.IIRC it was beating us that took you to #2 back then as well

That's me and Xuhaib

Afterthought Con-Fusion
I wish he had missed me as well.Poor Slowfinger. Smali missed him out. He also missed out Bouncer, Black Warrior, realist and Faisal.
I disagree, Moyo wasnt dropped for his captaincy alone, his batting was no special for a quite a period of time prior to that. Besides his declining batting, he also, since his 1600+ season, treated Pakistan cricket as an ATM machine, pretty whorish attitude IMO.Yousuf just wasn't selected after his poor captaincy. Sad end for him. Was a great player for Pakistan and shameful the way he was treated. I would have him any day over Shafiq.

some of the pak members have been amongst the best in all my time here in CW. Congrats guys!!! You all deserve this moment
Disclaimer: I did say this about English members as well a couple of years back and we have all seen how that turned out. Mind you, still think there a number of good ones among them, just happen to get drowned out by a few others.

awtaImmensely satisfying victory, as a Pakistani fan, I couldnt be happier. I dont think the full scale of the victory has quite sunk in yet...
either that, or accusations of doctored pitches and how they are not good for cricket. I mean, it is one thing to read that on sites like YouTube but the amount of times that nonsense gets spouted here at CW.. God.There was the thread about what you'd rather watch inducing a collapse, and this series just reinforced my view (biased as a spinner, too, I guess) that I rather the mesmerising nature of watching a spinner induce a collapse.
Sadly, unless the pitch is a minefield it's always more likely to be blamed on poor batting than when a couple of pace bowlers run through a side; probably made worse that they can make a batsman look so clueless.
