What about this

 

Would Saurav Ganguly, Ian Harvey, Douglas Hondo have been frontline pacers for Pakistan today?

They could do with someone like dada as captain to turn their fortunes around. Current players are a bunch of sissies.

There was a time they would ban anyone for anything negative or sarcastic. Nowadays they don't even care, that's how bad it's become. They don't lock the forum now like before after defeat.

 

Even the biggest fans have given up on their cricket and feel they deserve all criticism and mocking 

Ask me, I am two time bannie, got banned in 2012 I guess for saying something about Afridi biting balls

Thank God, we started using DRS in domestic cricket as well.

 

Faheem Ashraf speaking during a press conference after the Stallions vs Dolphins game:

 

"Now, those who have placed these umpires on the panel should consider their placements carefully because every decision made by the umpires is under public scrutiny. In domestic cricket, there is Dosti Yaari (friendship), so we sometimes escape the scrutiny of umpires, or the umpires do a favor for us. The plain truth is that now there is no friendship; everything is on the screen. You all can see what’s happening; the whole world is watching, and all of Pakistan is aware.”

That's why their players are so highly touted with their fans before their debuts, and when you see them in intls, they're a joke.

They are very good with these under handed tactics. Last year before the boxing day test they gave Christmas presents to all the Australian players.

WTF is a connection camp. Oh a camp where you sit them together and ask them not to backstab each other.

 

"The Pakistan Cricket Board has scheduled a one-day connection camp for top cricketers in Lahore on September 23. This follows the final pool match of the Champions One-Day Cup on September 22. The playoffs will begin on September 24, giving players a day to rest in between.

Star players, including Babar Azam, Mohammad Rizwan, Shan Masood, Shaheen Shah Afridi, and Saim Ayub, have been invited to participate. Pakistan’s white-ball head coach, Gary Kirsten, will be present, along with red-ball coach Jason Gillespie, who will arrive in Lahore on September 22."

Runners Up. 

 

Celebrating for losing 

[Frustrated]

Ind beat BD within 2 days.  And same BD had whitewashed Pooks 2-0 last month.  Implies Ind can easily beat Pooks within 1 day.    Pooks might hv lost their test status by now, had they played tests in last 10 yrs against us.  Lucky Pooks.

I'm always torn when it comes to this particular contest. 

 

I'd usually back even BD against PAK. 

 

But I simply can't bring myself to support the Pommies fully. 

 

Ball change cheats, Bazball evangelism, whinging about pitches and DRS. Jimmy sledging Gill and then crying foul when he got a taste of his own medicine. 

 

 

 

 

[Ultimate_Game]

Pak still hasn't recovered from that 228 run Asia Cup humiliation. Since that game, they've simply gone to pieces.

 

Have never seen that level of mental disintegration! Even likes of Waugh, Border and WI team of 80s would be proud of it

When you can't decide whom to support, decide whom you "hate" more.
Pakistan is unbeatable there.

I was going through some old scorecards and noticed this extremely strange thing about Saqlain- born on dec 29 1976 ( officially )  ended his playing career by 2004 

Dhoni born 3-4 years later is still playing ipl and debuted for India in the same year that Saqlain retired. 
Is there any other cricketer who had such a flourishing career retired so early?

(  288 odi wickets at 21 avg certainly puts him among goat spinners in that format )

Saqlain was no way a 76 born, more like 70/71 or something.

Retired in 2004 at age of 33/34...coz Sehwag exposed him and turned him into a joke. However, his performance were dipping even before that.

[Strangering]

Shan Masood is about to lead the weakest Pakistani team in probably 40-50 years. 

 

However, I do think that Pakistan have home conditions if they are able to leverage against a non-subcontinent team, England. 

 

It's going to be 100 degrees and 50%humidity pretty much everyday. Those conditions will be foreign for English players and could take time to adjust.

He fudged his age by a good 5-6 years which you can see looking at him now. Regarding retiring early, Sehwag finished his career in Multan by hammering him mercilessly. He was never the same again. Very similar to what Sehwag did to Umar Gul in 2011 WC SF.
