Rana Posted May 23, 2011 Posted May 23, 2011 If they are the top stuff in the Pakistan lineup why havent they been selected for a long time in the squad? Except bowling fast, what was Sami's talent, he literally sprayed the ball all over the pitch. Do you mean to say PCB has been going with a second strung bowling lineup for the last 2-3 years? For the last 20-25 years. Pakistan cricket has been dominated by a few familiar names. When Wasim and Waqar were on song, Bowlers like Aaqib (not too much) and Ata-ur Rehman, Mohammad Zahid were sidelined, hence there career's flatterd. When Akhtar broke in, Sami, Azhar Mahmood, Shahid Nazir, Rana Naved didnt make it.
ganeshran Posted May 23, 2011 Posted May 23, 2011 We should have won the series had we played with clean intentions. Pakistan Cricket and the talent in the country can do wonders, we have been and can be a super force. It all depends on the player's intentions. This is a bit religious but important, the first Quote of the Prophet recorded in Saheeh Bukhari (book of Quotes) is that deeds are judged upon intentions. If Pakistan and its people cannot operate cleanly, then of course they will suffer. I'm sorry but that sounds blindly delusional. Indivdual Pakistani players may have been spot fixing and matchfixing some matches, but that not hide the rot that Pakistan cricket has been going through for quite some time now. Without a proper system in place to recognize talent and promote them, this was always inevitable. Sure, you will have find few diamonds in the rough, but relying on luck alone to uncover talent will never work consistently. Sooner or later it will backfire.
panther Posted May 23, 2011 Posted May 23, 2011 this thread says we cant produce fast bowlers sohail khan . Mohammad talha, sami, riaz, gul are all 145k bowlers some are crap like sami but i have answered the op
Rana Posted May 23, 2011 Posted May 23, 2011 we at least have drawn series' in SA & Aus and have beaten SL in SL. What has Papistan with its super duper phaaaast bowlers achieved in Test cricket in the last few years? Its not our bowlers that have let us down, its our Batsmen. Since Inzi's retirement, we couldnt pick ourselves up again. Younis Khan, Yousuf and Inzi in the the past decade has been one of the strongest middle orders, we dont have that anymore.
Sir_Afridi Posted May 23, 2011 Posted May 23, 2011 we at least have drawn series' in SA & Aus and have beaten SL in SL. What has Papistan with its super duper phaaaast bowlers achieved in Test cricket in the last few years? chal jhotay....Aus & Pak are the only teams who have beaten SL in SL in last decade :yay:
ganeshran Posted May 23, 2011 Posted May 23, 2011 im sorry to say that you lot are more focused on IPL rather than cricket itself' date=' we dont need too many fast bowlers, we bring em when we need them we got them in the reserves.[b'] For a joker series like the windies, we rested our top stuff, we done what we had to with minors. Wahab Riaz is as quick as Steyn, if not quicker. In this post,, you had mentioned that Pakistan is resting their top stuff for the Windies series. But the players playing have been the frontline bowling attack for Pakistan for the last 2-3 years. So my question is where is this top stuff that has been hidden for so long? The below response has no connection to my reply to your post. For the last 20-25 years. Pakistan cricket has been dominated by a few familiar names. When Wasim and Waqar were on song, Bowlers like Aaqib (not too much) and Ata-ur Rehman, Mohammad Zahid were sidelined, hence there career's flatterd.

Dhruv200 Posted May 23, 2011 Posted May 23, 2011 What is the use of having batsmen with 50+ averages if your team cant win series in Aus' date='SA,SL & Pak for a long time??[/quote'] Thicko Pakistan hasnt won a test series in South Africa Aus West Indies . India beat Pakistan in 2004 test series drew with Aus in 2004 and SL 2010 and SA 2011
King Tendulkar Posted May 23, 2011 Posted May 23, 2011 wahab riaz says hello again Bowling low 80s today, like he has for whole series. That is not phaaaast:--D
panther Posted May 23, 2011 Posted May 23, 2011 Bowling low 80s today' date=' like he has for whole series. That is not phaaaast:--D[/quote'] wat match are you watching was bowling at 145
Asim Posted May 23, 2011 Posted May 23, 2011 Bowling low 80s today' date=' like he has for whole series. That is not phaaaast:--D[/quote'] sure you watching Pak vs WI Test match? He bowling right now at 90MPH in his last spell..

Midfielder Posted May 24, 2011 Author Posted May 24, 2011 Our time will come' date=' But we wont forget our roots.[/quote'] Your time is long gone. Living in past much.
Midfielder Posted May 24, 2011 Author Posted May 24, 2011 So What? You lot insist on how pakistan sucked here and there yet you are number 1, ever seen Australian fans bragging about their rival's bad performances? Grow up! why make it harder for yourself, for one day it could be you in our position and then what answer will you have? Have you not forgotten, Australia 88 all out???????????? I would be suprised if India manage somethinglike that against Bangladesh on a track that suits bowlers, highly unlikely, could be vice versa. Dude Australians brag or not is not an issue. Issue is that you people on your phorums put down India all the times, make fun of Sachin and call our pace bowlers spinners and cant take it when we dish it out. Grow a pair.

Asim Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 How many wkts have your phaast bowlers take in this match. not any worry for us even if they take 0 as long as 20 of opposition wickets are expected to come... but still only for your records they bowled 20% of overs and took 25% of wickets...
