[Mr. Wicket]

Mohammad Sami to replace him? :D

wouldn't mind seeing that actually, but Rao has performed too well to be ignored.

[Ram]

So the jinx continues... Asif-Akhtar-Gul are yet to play a match together...

[beetle]

They are protecting him from Akhtar.... When Akhtar gets injured:tounge_smile:...they will send Asif for tests and call akhtar back.... :D

[siddhu]

what keeps happening to all the meat eaters... aren't they supposed to be stronger...they keep dropping like the flies...

[MundaPakistani]

Really needs to sort this out. Same injury over and over again.

Yeah Asif made his debut in 05 and it's amazing that they haven't been to play a single match together.

[DesiChap]

No big loss for Pakistan. Asif is stinking up in the ODI's anyways

Who will Akhtar target in the dressing room now? Becahara Rao?? :)

I hope he goes for that irritating wkt keeper...kamran akmal :hysterical:

[The Outsider]

Terrible news for India. The guy is bread and butter in ODIs.

[ludhianvi]

Rao was impressive when he last played India. His line is very impressive. Expect him to trouble the like of Yuvraj. Plus he usually has a very good economy as well. So if Pak are defending a big total, he might make it dificult to score. Wasnt Asif in a meeting along with Malik discussing how they lost the last ODI. Maybe its more of Asif vs Akhtar problem Anyways, hoping India to flatten them :tounge_smile:

[Bumper]

Unleash sehwag as an opener

[Inside_edge]

I can think of a certain star to pay a visit to siddhivinayak temple

In the mean time, Asif reportedly has been putting this break to good use. He was spotted at MRF lately, enquiring about some of the heaviest bats available. Expect some tamasha, when the test matches begin:haha:

Aktor watch out!! Maar khayega :haha:

[King Tendulkar]

Big bonus for us that asif is out. He may be a cheat but he is a very effective cheat

because he dosent want dopers in pak team?

Yep, it's definitely a chronic elbow problem. One of those things that could always be there for his entire career in varying degrees.

Why not?

Because it would mean dropping Rao, which after his recent performance just wouldn't be fair. (I know you're still hoping for that 4 man seam attack, I kind of am too, , but I don't think that's in the team's mind right now)
