Was Agarkar more tailunted than Akram?


Recommended Posts

Correct. And let me tell you what chickening out is. 1996 world cup Indi-Pakistan knock out match. Wasim Akram dreaded this moment. He knew they were going to lose and lose badly. He wet his pants and chickened out leaving captaincy to the brainless idiot Aamir Sohail who messed with Prasad and the rest is history. That is called chickened out. Agarkar would never have done that. Akram should have taken responsibility, but in stead he gave in to the fear of the Indian batsmen. Let me give you another example: Shoaib Akhtar, after getting thrashed around by Indians, said he developed some injury and decided to sit out for the rest of the match leaving his team handicapped till his batting turn came. He batted well without any sign of injury. Even his own captain was pissed. That is called chickened out. Agarkar would never have done that.

Pretty much starting the rot that is plaguing Pakistan to this day, the inability to beat India in a match that REALLY matters, i.e. the World Cup, not the Fanta / Zaandu Balm / Bata shoes Triangular tournaments nobody gives a shyt about. '96 - present day, India has been piling on the agony for 13 + years. Just mention India, Pak and World Cup in sentence and they would start praying 10 times a day, months before the match date. The icing on the cake came when four years later, he led Pakistan to a spectacular loss against India at the height of the Kargil war, losing by a bigger margin than the '96 defeat. The KO punch came four years later when Sachin effectively sealed Akram's career.
Akram and Waqar and Akhtar- All three done in one punch. The first two were wise and retired. Akhtar remained to become a joke.

What rubbish it doesnt matter if Agarkar has a better average or took more quicker wickets than Wasim Akram! Akram is a legend, while Agarkar is not even known by people in other countries! What counts is that Akram has more wickets than him and could swing the ball waay way way way way better than that chooto Aggy.
Who's Akram? :giggle: On topic : Akram is the man better than Ajit Agarkar. Reason? Hey, he's the new coach of KKR, so sense the genius :D
