England in Pakistan

[shahid6995]

About having a 'better team' then in december 2000 in the last Test in Pakistan, I don't think you can quite say that.

This was the line-up then: MA Atherton, ME Trescothick, N Hussain, GP Thorpe, AJ Stewart, GA Hick, C White, AF Giles, IDK Salisbury, AR Caddick, D Gough.

And this is the normal line-up now: ME Trescothick, AJ Strauss, MP Vaughan, IR Bell, KP Pietersen, A Flintoff, GO Jones, AF Giles, MJ Hoggard, SJ Harmison, SP Jones.

Apart from Salisbury and White, I find the team of 2000 had better individual players (except for Flintoff)

That 2000 team which you think was better was being beaten black and blue by almost everyone else and at one time was at the bottom of the ICC table, even after having most of those quality individuals. Its not about the individuals, its about the team and their confidence playing together. The best example of this was the Ashes series itself. Man for man, looking at their record, Australia was unbeatable but they got creamed. England will be pretty tough to beat for Pakistan.

DejaVu.... some similar comments in these forums prior to Pakistan's last visit to Australia. Remember, Fardin?

Pakistan grounds are not modern compared to England and so it would be a kind of boring series.

I look forward to hearing the talkSPORT commentators describe Pietersen smacking Shoaib's 'bouncers' into the crowd.

Just like Freddie and Pietersen will be waiting for that "100mph" delivery from Shoaib

i never knew Freddie and Pietersen want to get out that quickly

Sorry? That makes no sense whatsoever.

Strauss > Atherton
Vaughan > Hussain
KP > Hick (he never fulfilled his potential)

Tres has improved since then as has Giles.
