Pakistan Team Discussion

[CerealKiller]

No I was actually serious. And it wasn't anything to do with it being Pakistan using India's jersey or anything. What I wanted to say it looks identical to such extent that it nearly looks the same. And I do know the fact that Cricket boards around the world don't make the jerseys it's the kit sponsor that do it. In this case I feel like AJ Sports have took an inspiration from Nike. And actually speaking I literally hate the current design of the Indian jersey.

I was referring to the report of Younis Khan, "holding a knife to the throat" of Grant Flower.

Mickey Arthur confirmed it though and said that he had to intervene. Younis has always had such issues, but holding a knife to your coach is something that is unheard of in Cricket.

Again, PCB and Younis have refused to actually comment on this, so there could be some truth to this.

Ok. I was a bit confused before.

Can’t believe some people are still calling for Kamran Akmal to come back.

Rizwan will be a good keeper, no need for Kamran at all

Technically he was rescued by the home umpires, who gave it a leg bye

Rotational policy you know.

Gul
Amir
Asif
Sami
Arafat
Junaid
Wahab
Rahat
Azhar Mahmood
Rana Naved
Mohammad Talha
Tanvir
Bhatti

Such a long list of talented fast bowlers whom I've seen bowl. Shaheen and Naseem are new comers.

I guess that's one way of looking at it, but I'm sure if somebody was good enough to pick-up 200 wickets they wouldn't have been part of a 'rotational policy', even if it meant destroying that player physically. See: Shoaib Akhtar.

Also, I have no doubt in my mind Mohammad Asif would've become that had the 2010 thing not happened. He picked 103 wickets in 23 Tests, and to think he was only 27 when the spot-fixing scandal occurred is simply maddening as a Pakistani.

From the current crop, Yasir's pretty close.

Weren't we talking about pacers ?

Lmao, forgot

Really enjoyed this. Ahmer Naqvi and Osman Samiuddin are really fun to listen to. What a contrast with the likes of Yahya Hussaini

I for one do not miss his constant chatter from behind the stumps!

Two Spinners in for our test line up against England. Shahdab returns. Any thoughts?

I think its an interesting ploy but I think they might regret it. Old Trafford is not a spinning place: where in England is there real spin? Oval maybe, Edgbaston but not here.
