West Africans are kicking out whites from their teams in Europe despite being tiny minority. Football is very athletic and most popular sport.

 

 

Now you have jumped to football.

 

Even in football white majority teams like Croatia or Italy would beat west African teams,or teams from Jamaica or usa who otherwise dominate athletics.

 

In the 22 final Argentina with white and mestizo players beat France .

 

And lot of these players are of mixed ancestry as well ,like mbappe. 

 

 

 

Checked zim's football,their rank is 129 but drew 1-1 with Nigeria (rank 38) in the 26wc qualifier in nov.

 

So my original point stands,if football is your benchmark then Zim is stronger and more athletic than us,as we can't hold a team like Nigeria to a 1-1 draw.

West Africans don't have resources as much the football crazy nations you mentioned  that's why west African when migrate to Europe get selected even when they are from poor background.

 

USA and Jamaica are not football crazy nations

For sure. Pakistan are no match for Zim's fitness. Case in point Azam Khan, dad-bod Babar Azam and the langda Imad Wasim.

 

How does it feel that your main team struggle to beat likes of US, Ireland, Zim etc. while Indian kids are beating Zim black & blue

The same could be said about Zim as well,they are also poor.

 

West Africa has massive population , that's why they have more migrants compared to other parts of Africa.

 

But like I said ,my original point stands ,that Zim are stronger than us ,even by your football criteria.

Dude, whom're you fooling. Your thread after the 1st Zim odi and sudden disappearance after Abishek 100 and your not so sly digs at India in every thread is pretty clear indication. Anyone who has seen your posts can see the Pak bitterness & jealousy come through

This particular team never played together. Ervine made his debut after Eddo was done. 

 

But these were the best ODI players from that golden era of ZIM cricket

 

That Test series only had 1 match where the weather allowed play. 

 

Was also a bit dodgy with Aamir Sohail hinting that players were underperforming under his captaincy.  

 

Wasim Akram was made captain for the India tour right after that.

 

ZIM played well but they were aided by conditions and a dissipated, lethargic PAK side.

Weather is natures way of things. India lost 2-1 to aus in 2004. Would have been 2-2 if chennai was not washed off. India should have been 1-0 up and won trentbridge in 2021 if not for rain.
