not true. http://stats.cricinfo.com/ci/engine/player/42639.html?class=2;template=results;type=batting;view=innings he is not a beacon of consistency or of long/patient innings, but his performance has been ok, plus he also bowls. anyways, everyone has a different role in the team. he has clearly been one of the better performers on this team in the shorter formats. PS: can't believing I am defending the retard. :((
Dammit. Why do you let facts get in the way :winky:

:cantstop: Yeah he has faith in his bowlers. But not blind faith which most of you padosis have on your bowlers. If your bowlers are so great why don't they win matches for you? Remember Sydney test? Forget that do you remember the last ODI against Sri Lanka? From 160/7 to 243. :hehe: Pakistan had a good bowling attack in 90's. This is 2010 noobs. Even can piss on most of your bowlers. And don't get me started on stumps hitting abilities. Your phaast bowlers couldn't even hit the stumps once in a bowl out(T20 world cup). Even Uthappa managed to hit it. :alienbooty:
joginder sharma is fasterthen shoaib akthar hashish nehra tought wasim akram how to bowl harbjhan singh is faster then shoaib akthar ravinder jadeja is better then shane warne yuvraj singh invented the reverse swing ..anything to make u happy :hatsoff:

I'm okay with all but the highlighted bit. Being cheaters on a cricket field is quintessential Pakistani and nobody wants that altered.

I'd put the Sydney test on the batsman (more specifically Akmal). Can't really fault the bowlers after bowling out AUS for 127 in the 1st innings and having AUS at 257-8 in the 2nd innings before the dropped catches started. Even with all the drops, they managed to restrain the lead to 176 which should have been achievable with about a day and a half to play.

India, Lanka to test bench strength as India prepares to tame the Lions Having qualified for Thursday's final, both India and Sri Lanka will test each other's nerves and reserves in first round Asia Cup match in Dambulla. More... India, Lanka to test bench strength Yahoonews, PTI, 21 June 2010 Dambulla: Having qualified for Thursday's final, both India and Sri Lanka will test each other's nerves and reserves in an inconsequential first round Asia Cup match at the Rangiri International Stadium. While Kumar Sangakkara's Lanka have a fit and fighting side, India have been plagued by injuries to key players. With Virender Sehwag nursing a pulled hamstring, the team management has flown in Dinesh Karthik but Jharkhand batsman Saurabh Tiwary will fancy his chances of making his ODI debut. In the bowling department, Ashish Nehra is said to have recovered from back spasms which had hampered his movement in the field against Pakistan but it is unlikely the left-arm seamer will play tomorrow. In his absence, India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni has the option of playing medium pacer Ashok Dinda, left-arm spinner Pragyan Ojha or Ravichandran Ashwin, whose off-spin bowling could be handy on this surface. Interestingly, all the offbreak bowlers have done reasonably well here. Among the batsmen, Gautam Gambhir has been India's man in form with successive scores of 82 and 83. Dhoni himself is hitting the ball well, as is Suresh Raina, who contributed a significant 34 in the win against Pakistan. But the likes of Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma are yet to prove their prowess in the tournament. Though nothing will be at stake tomorrow, star spinner Harbhajan Singh said the team would be serious in their approach. "This is an important game for us. We don't take any game lightly. Obviously, if we win the match, we can go to the final with a better frame of mind," said Harbhajan. Sri Lanka have had a fantastic run in the tournament, defeating Pakistan by 16 runs and crushing Bangladesh by a huge margin of 126 runs. Their batsmen have been in great nick and opener Tillakaratne Dilshan has been in roaring form. Sangakkara himself, along with Mahela Jayawardene and Angelo Mathews, looks in touch while Upul Tharanga and Chamara Kapugedara have also been among the runs. Their bowling unit is arguably better than India with Lasith Malinga, Nuwan Kulasekara and left-arm fast bowler Chanaka Welegedara having already made their mark in the tournament.
