The West Indies are just one decent bowler away from looking like a dangerous team. What's happened to Ian Bradshaw or Reon King? They may be ageing ODI specialists, but surely they would be more effective than Daren Powell.
Yousuf's brilliant form really makes Ponting look average, doesn't it. I really hope Yousuf can break both of Viv's records to be honest. As much as I love Richards, it would be nice to have a Pakistani hold a respectable test record.
BTW, in case people may be wondering, the two records I am talking about are most runs in a calendar year and most centuries in a calendar year. Yousuf has tied Viv with 7 centuries after this match.
Also note, it took Viv Richards 11 tests (19 innings) to score all those runs and 100s. If Yousuf does break Viv's record, it will be in exactly the same amount of matches, and possibly the same amount of innings.

I have to agree with Nightprowler, Yousuf is just an amazing batsmen to watch. Incredibly consistant and one of the best in the World, technically probably the best, and his run tally for the season so far has been absolutely fantastic
superb work again by Yousuf and Raazaq getting stick in aswell...it looks like he really gets nervous in his 190s so thats the 4th time he's got out in 190s in three series...would love to see him beat both of vivs records...and the phenomanal form hes in...he can easily do that...COME ON YOUSUF...AND PAKISTAN...lol...
Well...Its not the fourth time its the third time...And this was the first ever draw in Multan Cricket Stadium!Well...Its proven that Yousuf does get nervous in the 190's...
i think its the 4th time cos the last time he got out on 192 i thought the commentator sid that was the 3rd time in 3 series...might have heard wrong...
You must've heard it wrong or the commentator was mistaken. Yousuf has been dismissed in the nervous 190s thrice now, which is more than any batsman in test cricket.
