Good old days.....


Recommended Posts

Re: Good old days..... Honestly he was more hype than material. If similar videos were posted about say Akram or Waqar it would be exciting watching. Shoaib was always a hyped up bowler. Fair enough he produced few decent spells but there was enough garbage to go with it too. No way is he even going to be in the list of top 5 bowlers for Pakistan.

Had the 2nd best bowling SR of the modern era( Waqar has the best).... 165 wickets at an average of 25 in test and 208 wickets at an average of 23 in the ODIs! So not too shabby at all! While talking about the best PAK bowlers there is no doubt that Wasim,Waqar and Imran are the top 3 and after that it's very debatable.

Re: Good old days.....

fair enough ... although more dated hence not as familiar with his achievements.
Fazal was the 1st Pakistani 'great'...he was the hero of the 1954 Oval test match which helped PAK draw the series vs ENG(no other team has ever won a test match on their 1st tour of ENG). Overall in his career Fazal picked close to 140 wickets at an average of 24.

Re: Good old days..... Mushtaq Ahmed, Abdul Quadir will figure in the top 5 Pakistan bowlers ever. Shoaib will probably ranked about 8 or 9th or even worse??? My top 5 pakistan bowlers list goes something like this : Wasim Akram Waqar Younis Imran Khan Abdul Quadir Mushtaq Ahmed
