Batsman are scoring easy runs in the absence of Pakistani bowlers - Wasim Akram

Look at the mentality of this Paki and his retarded statement. As if nobody can score runs if Pak phasssht bowlers play in IPL and they are second coming of Marshall and Donald. :hysterical: He earns money here as a coach and commentator and when he goes back home, he typically talks trash about India like the typical Paki he is. The mentality of these guys itself is like this and yet they keep whining and begging that Pak players should be selected in IPL.

Wasim Akram, the former Pakistan captain, has taken the reins of the country's fast-bowlers to help their progress. He and the PCB reached an agreement for a short-term fast-bowling camp in Karachi between April 20-29, ahead of the Champions Trophy. Along with the camp, Wasim, with the collaboration of the PCB and a cellular company, will search for the fastest bowlers in the country. The search will be nationwide as the candidates will be selected from 8-10 cities over 5-7 days. Any bowler with a bowling speed of 140kph or more will be selected. He will also work with Pakistan's full-time bowling coach Mohammad Akram in the national camp planned in Abbottabad, north of Islamabad, from May 3-9. "The idea is to sit and talk with the bowlers and give them confidence," Akram said. "I will assess the bowlers, find out their problems and help them to rectify them. A lot of young bowlers need some insight. I will then keep a track of them and follow them closely." "I saw them in Test matches against South Africa they didn't impress me, but in one-day cricket they looked different and wicket taking bowlers. I have to teach them what is a good corridor, what is the right line and length. Regardless of any sort of pitches anywhere in the world, they have to be consistent in length, with yorkers, and know how to take wickets." Akram, 46, who has been with Kolkata Knight Riders, the IPL champions, for the last three seasons, is currently in Pakistan on a two-month break. He rues the absence of Pakistan players in the IPL and believes it is a loss for the tournament. Pakistani players featured in the inaugural IPL in 2008 but India stalled all bilateral ties after the November 2008 Mumbai attack. Despite a short series between the countries in December and January, Pakistani players were not allowed to take part in the sixth edition of the IPL. "Politics should stay away from sports, and we should play cricket," Akram added. "Our players should have gone to the IPL. I think batsman are scoring easy runs in the absence of Pakistani bowlers and our bowlers could be top wicket takers there. The psyche of Pakistan bowlers is strong, they are physical and mentally tough while Indian bowlers get spoiled within a year. They start with express pace from 140-plus but in a year go down around 130."

These Paki bowlers were smashed like school kids in helpful conditions in South Africa and couldnt pick wickets to save their lives. All their bowlers looked below average and pedestrian there with bowlers like Adil and Tanvir barely crossing 130 kph. :hysterical: Typical overhyped Paki bowlers.

Note the place where he said this. Abbottabad. Remember why it was famous earlier ? Yeah Osama Bin Laden's last compound. To understand what is happening here, one has to understand pakistani psyche. They exist to be ani India, that is their identity. Akram has no choice there, he is a pakistani. If he does not say bad things about India he might not move up in Pakistan, he might not even make a living, or worse be called a sellout or blasphemer and Killed. Stop to think before you accuse this guy, he has little kids hopefully not located in Pakistan..

This guy along with all other Pakistanis live in LALA land, This statement is as ridiculous as the statement made by that Idiot Naseer Hussain on why only Indian players should benefit from IPL and not Pakistani players.

Pakistani bowlers will to well in the IPL. They are perfectly suited to the conditions. More than the pacers though its the Pakistani spinners who will do the damage.
