Yousuf Yohanna,wanted lead Pakisthan cricket Team.But when he understood that Imran Khan,Mudassar nazar and Rameez Raja was after Him Criticizing his attitude as Indian,who are always after records rather than the teams purpose converted to Islam.He was good human being,Took the responsibility his big family,including his parents five, brothers and their family.But PCB never made him the captain of cricket team and was put him under a very Junior like Shoiab Malik.A dejected Yousuf left Pakisthan cricket and joined ICL
PCB is one of the most stupid organization. PCB is extremely selfish. We have see blunders by Shoeb, Asif and other players.... and result - they were always included in their National Team. No wonder, the will lure Mohd Yusuf and give him a kick he doesn't perform.
PCB is run by stupids,for the stupids..and yes..for the Stupid and worst country in the world.
It is very funny. PORKIS don't have a match in their country and India will not allow them to play here. Now, PCB asked Yousuf to join the team. It is called Porki Tamasha.

Great Logic... A guy is erroneously given out everytime he goes out to play and is rested for the dud games.. still its his 'worst' performance.
The Cricket Board Members of all the Contries act like slaves eating from the back of the hand of BCCI .It is shame . A true lover of the game only encourages and supports ICL .
Over the years we have seen how ocorrupt the Cricket Board is - after Dalmia on whom the current members have charged of corrution. One member of current Board is already charged with corruption.Over the years you can hear lot more. I am glad that ICL has supported over 100 cricketers .All Boards treat a mere 15-20 as Gods and rest as dust. Here is an opportunity to support those neglected . Today it is retired players ,in future soon it will young and talented who will play. Let me not fool myself Mr.Subas Chandra is in Business and nothing wrong as long as the cause is good .
The way BCCI treated Explayers who did yemon service only indicates BCCI is scared and shitting in its pants - hence twisting the arms of other Cricket Boards.
IPL auction only shows how insensitive we are ? Also knowing all the people involved what are the kickbacks from the players god only knows.

Very well said. Its a pity a great game like cricket is bound by whims and fancies of executives in BCCI and ICC who dont give a sh*t about the game. Their sole concern is money.

well said, indeed BCCI is not doing things rightly. Crores of rupees are coming in but still the difference between international and ranji matches is extremely great with pathetic conditions adn services for ranji players including the monetary benefits.
Im a fan of Mohammad Yousuf....he's a classy n stylish batsman....Yousuf cum back 2 Pak Team...also i want Pak Board 2 ask Abdur Razzaq 2 cum back as he's one of d finest hitter in One dayers....n also Rana Naveed who's a gud bowler.... cheerz

India's tour of New Zealand has been extended to include a third Test and a second Twenty20 international. The extra fixtures have been included at the expense of the tour match which means India will have no practice games during their visit that includes two Twenty20 matches, five ODIs and three Tests.
India will arrive in New Zealand on February 20, eight days earlier than originally scheduled, and will begin the tour with a Twenty20 match in Christchurch on February 25. Napier will host the additional Test, the second of the three-match series, from March 26 to 30. The reworked schedule resulted in the dates for the second Twenty20 game and the first three ODIs being brought forward. The three-day warm-up match against a New Zealand XI in Lincoln between the ODIs and Tests has also been scrapped.
BCCI secretary N Srinivasan said he was delighted that both the boards were able to agree on an extended tour. "My thanks go to New Zealand Cricket for re
