Nice. Let me share some more with you. He told me, he wasn't ready to to play for Pakistan during the series in 1998 when Mark Taylor scored 334* against Pakistan. He blamed Aamir Sohail for asking him to play and keep bowling with broken back in that game. What happend was during or before series, Akram and Waqar got injured and it opened chances for Zahid to play. Aamir knew about Zahid's poor back and he wanted him to fail and get out of the team roster. Zahid complained a lot about his poor back during the game, but Aamir kept telling him to keep bowling with that back. Zahid said "I kept bowling because Aamir didn't listen and told me to just bowl with the way I am. I ended up messing my back and my future was over right away. That injured messed up my career. " He hates Aamir Sohail. He also said that his good friend Salim Elahi, another young prsopect back then during his time, wasn't treated well by Aamir Sohail. Aamir kept messing up his mind and later the night before the test match against England or Australia at home, Salim Elahi got fed up of Ami Sohail and left the team hotel and went back home and never picked up the bat for 3-4 years and cut his links with cricket. He was morally down. Another cricket career was over.
Amazing...Sohail seems like a grade A douche, but who am I to judge him

Ruwan Kalpage' date=' Wickramasinghe , Pushpakumara (Waqar wannabe), Gurusingha these guys also were prominent players during the 90's[/quote'] Kalpage - SL fielding coach Wickramasinghe - national selector Pushpakumara - SLC development officer/coach for north-east (war-torn areas) Gurusingha - living in Aus, not involved with cricket I remember a tri-series in Sarjha won by a youngish (mostly experience-wise) Eng team under Adam Hollioake (also a rookie at that time). There were quite few players in that side who didn't play too long at international level after that series. I remember Alistair Brown. Not sure if this Dougie Brown was one of them. Ngam played for SA but only for few test. A genuine quick bowler.

Yeah that was actually Quadrangular series which had INdia, England, Pakistan and West Indies. We lost every game in that series. Tendulkar opened the tournament with a brilliant 90 odd. He almost won the game against England, the eventual champions, before getting stumped by Alec Stewart and that turned the game.
