On what basis does Sehwag become the Test player of the year? What match-winning innings did he play in the test matches this year? IMO Dravid, Kallis or Inzamam will do justice to the award (I hope).

Does James Hopes bat as a opener? I remember him batting at 6 or 7 in the ODI he played against New Zealand :rolleyes:

If you ask me Ganguly is obsessed with himself. Its so strange, that he mentions this incident on the third day when he got his century. What is he trying to prove, this hundred against agruably the worst bowling attack in the world cannot silence his critics.

First of all I am sorry mods, wont happen again. Abusing my Pakistani brothers? First of all supporting your team blindly is one thing, and looking at reality is another. Pakistanis dont look at reality thats their problem. See our record in recent test matches and you'll see why I was...

All the morons who think that Pakistan can win the test series, go attend a KG class or something. You even know how we are in the test matches? Our batting line-up is like glass, very sensitive. It will not take time or effort to break it. If we are to even give a fight to England, our batting...

In Tests our famed line-up will defintely collapse, and I guess you pommies will win it easily. But in ODIs Pakistan are a different team altogether, and I wouldnt be surprised if they give a whipping to England :D

Dependable my foot! Look at his technique. Everytime he chases the ball instead of leaving it, and finally he nicks one. This has been a regulation in Hameed's dismissal. Regularly he gets out like this, edging to the keeper. And he has only played well against the likes of Bangladesh and a...

Dull?! You find ODIs dull? Test cricket is more dull, atleast for us Pakistanis. Can this ODI hatred be because England are not doing well in ODIs.

Actually, Butt has been misused by the Pakistan management. In India he did pretty well in ODIs (a century and some quick innings at the top), and I blame the management for just giving him one test and dropping him for the woeful Hameed. Performed average in the Windies tour, with a highest...

Looks like Zimbabwe is doing much more than what I expected off them. But should be an easy win for India. I can foresee Sehwag massacring the hapless Zimbabwe bowlers :rolleyes:

Hameed is a proven failure nightprowler. Apart from his debut year, he hasnt done anything worthy.

No, Afridi is not our strength. I personally hate his hack-and-slash style of batting, but with your bowlers bowling short and length balls, one gets the sniff of Afridi doing something big (though it will be only once).

Will be interesting to see if Harmison bangs the ball short. Cause if he does, he is going to get really massacred by our batsmen. Short stuff on Pakistani flat pitches is bad stuff, and particularly risky. Sami's recent performance against Australia A might change your opinions Briggsey. He...

Check-out Sami's new hair-style! Us Pakistanis have such great tastes :)

In Tests England are definitely the favourites, in ODIs though I would alter my statement a little and say that Pakistan may start as favourites. In Tests, the Pakistanis produce a good performance in two-three sessions and then blow it away. In Akhtar we've got a match-winner, but we've also...

Pakistan win by 7 wickets! Australia A all out on 130 after Pakistan A posted 213. Sami being the cheif destroyer with 3 very quick wickets at the start, and Gul provided excellent support. Nazir and Mansoor Amjad also got 2 wickets each. Pakistan A openers started in decent fashion, putting up...

The conditions are very cloudy and the pitch is sort-of damp, so yeah the conditions have played an important role. All the swing bowlers have got assistance. But the main concern is our openers. It really pains to see these talented cricketers throw away their chances by playing reckless shots...

To become number 1 England need to repeat this performance in the Australian Ahes tour. If they can retain the Ashes in Australia, they are deserving world champions!

Just like I predicted. Our batting standards are below standard, and this will certainly cost us the series against England. Our top-order is too brittle, and the English attack will certainly destroy us if we keep it up.

Do these Aussies want to win the Ashes? The way they are playing, it does not look like it. Just watched Warne drop Pieterson off Lee :eek: You cant drop a guy like Pieterson twice and get with away it.
