It is not pak but entire south Asian teams. Bone test should be mandatory and conducted by icc any team access of 2-4 hiding their age then that team should be barred from junior cricket.

 

BTW look at Rashid khan. On papers he is barely 20 but he could easily be in late 20s.

bone test is mandatory in INdia

Even in the latest WC - you should have seen the faces of their 2 opening bowlers - its like they shaved with 7 blades, right before stepping onto the field.  It was conspicuous how hard they tried to be clean-shaven.  Mohammed Musa I think one of them was, there's no way that guy was u19.  

 

Didn't matter much, still got spanked by big Papi.  As it should be.

Also i dont know why they have obsession with younger age, every time any new of their perform good they will say "Massallah he is just 16" ,or, "He is just 17" in case if he perform bad. Bloody cheats  hide age  more than even gals.

Among many include Sachin and Kambli to the list as well, pull up records from Sharda Ashram and his class mates, it is an open secret, age fudging was common then.

Sachin indeed looks like a 16 years old while debut.

Biggest age fraud has to be done by dhoni for sure. Looks in his mid fifties but still saying he 37 to play another worldcup.

Afridi says he was born in 1975.

 

He says he was 19 when he scored that 37 ball century in 1996.

 

 

Thanks be to almighty, Math is not the strong suit.  Wild slogging, pitch dancing, ball biting, etc - now I'mma your guy.

A 22 year old is much more preferred over 28 year old. So age does matter

yes but performance will matter whether 22 or 28. if they take care of it at age group level when those players graduate to senior level, it would not be needed.

I am not sure even this is Afridi's real age. His age may even be closer to 1965 than to 1975.

All of Afghanistan players are age cheats.

Biggest BS I’ve ever heard from people is that Pathans look older than their age which is BS because they don’t. I know a lot of Pathans who look young for their age
