Why Pakistan is so "Unpredictable"??

Rubbish, pure rubbish. S Gawaskar, Dravid, Tendulkar do they mean something to you? they aren't punjabi but can one say that they aren't match winners??

As far as Pak ae concerned, 70 percent of the players are punjabis, the other people are the one who has to face discrimination.To say that Punjabis in Pak cricket are facing diccrimination is hilaious!
Chooray never ever try to say any thing against Punjabis . Plzzzzzz .
Its racist . Keep on neglecting us . We feed all of your subcontinent . ANd you came up with this statement . Pathetic .....

choora didnt say anything against punjabis, he just stated some players who arent punjabi who have done well? and where does this neglect of the punjab region come into cricket? ok fair enough, apparently all of the sub continent relies on the punjab region and they feed everyone which is terrific but i can't see the connection with pakistans inconsistency and punjabis feeding everyone. no disrespect meant my friend just curiosity? 8-)

I think that is the case with all Asian sides actually. It happens even when the same team is picked continuously. Have no clue what the reason is .
absolutely 100% true....it seems to be quite often the case with both SL and india to either play rubbish or play well, theres no in between for them. of course they tend to play well far more often than a team like pakistan does.

Only person who is being pathetically racist is you. Stop bringing your stupid regionalism in here. No one is interested. :shutup:

IMO, this Pakistan team is not inconsistent, they are playing according to their potential. The problem is with the fans, they fail to recognize that the current Pakistani team is rebuilding, they have a new coach, new captain, new set of young players, they are rebuilding and this will take time. Pakistan fans raise their expectations sky high after a single performance, Once their expectations are not met, they look for excuses or scapegoats.

We've heard the "Pakistan is rebuilding" one before - it needs to happen for more than a couple of months before anyone is convinced.

Just was curious , Why in the hell then Pakistan is mantaining the wonderful record of almost 2-1 against India and Srilanka .
The same question was during The Wasim Waqar , Anwar , Malik , Ijaz , Saqlain times .
Pakistan is the only team in the world having Bowled out the other teams for a far lesser total than they expected more than once in a while .
They are predictable or unpredictable now tell me ? I mean a dear fellow made a point about Pakistani team having limited capability then thats a BS. I never heard Michael Holding , Ian Bishop and bunch of Aussie Commentators naming India or Srilanka . But they always pointed out Pakistan for some reason .
COaching is not a prob now . Selection is not a problem now and talent is not a problem at all .
Hey Punjabi thing just leave it . This thread is about a year old and things have changed now here .......... Thanks

I've got this great idea.

Why don't they appoint someone like, er, Javed Miandad?

They can be nothing but unpredictable coz they are...
extremely talented,
extremely indisciplined,
and have never thought of cricket as a thinking man's game.

with due respects to alll religious sentiments,

they have the bravado of suicide bombers !

Aww Sir . Some times its so difficult for even decent people to control bladder at public spots . Very well then The pioneers of Suicide bombing , The Srilankans must be producing A great Shoaib Akhtar or Wasim every month . And if your theory is right then ,India must have had a better record over Pakistan but unfortunately its 2-1 almost ,, i.e. 58-33 ... And if that theory is right then India must be winning every test and one dayer against Australia cuz some Indians have burnt Alive Australian priests along with their kids and families ..Now that is a killer instinct .. And there has been no Suicide bomber In pakistan to date .... or have they .....................
Then if terrorism is the case of developing cricketing mind then India must be at the top spot some where at least .......

Unfortunate choices of words all round - maybe 'self-destruct button' would have been a better example to use in this day and age?

I am sorry Fraz if I hurt your sentiments. It was not my intention.

I am not going to go into all that you have said since it is not relevant and what I said was not even remotely meant to mean anything that you have assumed. Just to be sure no one still misunderstands, I put a caveat, 'with due respect to everyones religious sentiments'. Looks like it wasnt enough.

Suffice it to say, I used the phrase 'suicide bomber' like one would use 'kamikaze' or harakiri'. No more and no less. I would unhesitatingly use the same for some of Virender Sehwag's acts on the crease.

Hope this clears the air.

Relax my friend, its not good to have so much heat inside you. It is not becoming a cricket lover.

In hindsight, I agree with you but it is too late. I thought I had chosen a very smart and apt analogy.

Sometimes we fall in love with our own 'wit' and invariably regret later.:mellow:

Been there, done that many, many times more than other members here, to my own detriment.

I even used the phrase 'bury the hatchet' with one of our more vocal antipodean counterparts (although through clenched teeth I was muttering another phrase including the word 'head' too).

Well, ok, maybe I didn't. Still, it's a good job that 'foot in mouth disease' wears off - I'd be a terminal case otherwise.
