the don Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 Fast bowling seems to be the flavour of the month at ICF so i thought i will create a thead that tracks pace bowling in India/Pakistan encounters over the years . The two teams have been fierce rivals with Pakistan getting the better of India on a lot more occasions mainly due to the difference in quality of the pacers . Posters are welcome to contribute with footage of wasim , waqar , akhtar , srinath , prasad , mohanty giving their all for their respective nations in these highly charged encounters . This was a special moment when the fastest bowler in the history of the game announced himself in test cricket . India through their fast men like Prasad fought hard in this game but ultimately Akhtar was too quick and good. Lala2790 1 Link to comment
the don Posted November 12, 2017 Author Share Posted November 12, 2017 This 2005 series was in india was an interesting one . Pakistan lost shoaib akhtar before the series but the bowlers took the mantle and even Rana Navid was seen bowling quicker than Indian bowlers in that series. Lala2790 1 Link to comment
the don Posted November 12, 2017 Author Share Posted November 12, 2017 The 2006 test series was a very memorable one with Asif announcing himself . This was the moment of the series though despite Asif's heroics . On a lifeless pitch sachin was shaken up by the brutality of Akhtar's pace . India had some decent pacers in their lineup like Pathan and zaheer to compete . Pathan even took a hattrick bowling at 120 ks . Lala2790 1 Link to comment

We don't need to sneak a win we already won a test match last tour of England and came awfully close against Aus and South Africa. Maybe you guys should try sneaking in a draw in Australia lol Link to comment

Maybe you guys should try sneaking in a draw in Australia lol You should aim higher . Sneaking a win mixed with several innings defeats over many tours and coming awfully close does not sound like a champions mindset . You need bowlers. Link to comment

the don Posted November 12, 2017 Author Share Posted November 12, 2017 Sad to see Srinath bowling slower than Razzaq and Mohanty is slower than Afridi bowling at 121kph. This was a very enjoyable tri series . Link to comment
Nikhil_cric Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 Really made me nostalgic after watching some real pace especially by akhtar. Sadly it's come to a point where gamage,Pradeep and lakmal are winning matches better than Pakistani pacers these days. Mosher, Turning_track, Rightarmfast and 3 others 6 Link to comment

You do need help but this forum may not be the best place for you. Defining your life by what India does will serve no purpose. You need to understand that you are like a little brother seeking attention but we chose to ignore you. You are not our rival in cricket. Uur only true rival is Australia but you are just a nuisance. While you have time to post all these videoes can you post one in which the two W's had three balls in an over at more than 90 mph? I am waiting. Crickets.

I know - the 188 run thrashing in the CT Final is evidence You'll be pleased to know that no one speaks or discusses India where I am from too; we are too busy discussing our successes like out CT trophy over Lol India, our No 1 T20 ranking, our first world development and how we can assist our third world neighbours to the East and how much better are mangoes are compared to imported fruits from India Link to comment

Your future success is elusive depending on what we put on the field. After a dozen attempt you win once and I can understand your reaction. I would be celebrating too. We have had so much success that we dont celebrate lot of these things. We just take it as a matter of fact and move on to other important things. BTW which is the best mango in Pakistan?

Lala2790 Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 No success for a long, long time actually, but given you don't live in the past that is a good thing. The calaypso mango is magnificent friend, don't buy the local garbage you get in the markets and local for ripe Pakistani varieties Link to comment
