its cuz inzi is trying to save his captain's position in the team! but I hope that doesnt work, we need Younis to be the captain
Asif can definetely be Pakistan's best bowler, the future will tell.

Inzi has been the best Captain Pakistan ever had, stats wise. His Winning Percent is superb!

This is our first tour outside of the subcontinent with a settled lineup, and even this one has been marred by injuries. I think Pakistanis are being too harsh on him. Besides, I don't think its a very good idea to change captains with just a few months left in the World Cup.ali_ed2001 said:

Exactly, I don't think Inzamam is to blame at all for the bad things that have happened in this tour. Apart from Old Trafford, he has batted well, and if his fielders would have taken catches, and some of his bowlers bowled better, then this could be an entirely different series.

Spot on, mate. Throw in a few correct decisions by the umpires and this series would've been a lot more exciting for everyone.evertonfan said:
Asif and Gul looked top class today. That first ball to Monty would've beaten many better batsmen, espescially as it was the first ball he faced. Farhat and Hafeez both looked quality, despite the latter getting only 8 runs so far, although for a change both Younis and Yousuf looked uncomfortable, espescially when you look at the rate Farhat was going at. I think Farhat will make a century, I can't see Yousuf getting a big score though. 
I think Hafeez will come in after 1 down tomorrow and hopefully put together a decent knock.

I honestly don't care how many runs who makes, as long as Pakistan takes a big lead.
BTW, this is funny. Asif has apparently requested Cricinfo to change his profile picture. Can't say I blame him though:

lol i read that...the picture seems like it was taken right after the end of days play or something, cuz he looks so red!
I really hope that Inzi gets a century or something big, since this will be his last test in and against England.

Asif has definitely had a bright start to his career, but I agree that one shouldn't jump ahead in comparisons (or possible comparisons). Pathan was hailed as India's answer to Wasim Akram and look what he is now--an allrounder struggling to get into the top XI.

Exactly, the margin of victory in both the games were huge. Besides the ifs and buts, no matter how valid they may seem, dont matter in the end.nightprowler10 said:
