Pakistan vs Sri Lanka in UAE Oct-Nov 2011/12

Well i'm not condoning cheating, when I express regret that they are not involved in PAK cricket from a neutral perspective.

Just a simple acknowledgement, that if those two had not gone down that road, what a special all-round bowling attack the men in green would have ATM.

Actually that match fixing saga came out as blessing in disguise for young Junaid who was overlooked due to Aamir. Yes Aamir and Asif was great but you must need to know that Asif didn't have much pace and he might not be an effective bowler in Asian wickets. I hope these players came out as alarm for other young cricketers and we have a proper cricket back on track.
Still openers are one main concern for Pakistan and we need to find somebody with Hafeez to open. Kamran Akmal as a proper opener batsman may be a good choice for that. (specialist batsman not keeper batsman)

you do know that Kamran Akmal is possibly as involved in the fixing as Butt....

Kamran Akmal looks more of a ringleader than Butt tbh.

Either ways, Umar has done more than an adequate job as a partner for Hafeez in tests, its the ODIs that we need to find a partner for him. Imran Failhat should stay away.
 
@send2yaari
You know Taufeeq is the first Pakistani Opener to have scored a double hundred in 16 or so years? He is a technically correct player and one of better opening batsmen we have had over the last two decades. There is no way in hell he needs to be replaced with that Crook Akmal.
 
Yeah umpiring has been a disgrace really. It's unfortunate we can not have the services of the World's best umpire for our own :facepalm

Will be an interesting watch, I hope Shahid Afridi will come back for ODIS and T20s
I am going to find the match on betcious...
 
come on Lanka you are making it really boring.I think this match will be over before 4th innings if SL continued to play like this.55 runs in 28 overs rubbish.Pakistan will do the same when they'll bat COURTESY taufeeq,azhar and Younis
 
Adnan Akmal is keeping alive the age old Akmal tradition of dropping catches and missing stumpings. The youngest beaver misstumped Sanga when he was 50 or something and dropped silva just now. :facepalm
