Re: I like Shoaib Akhter

the fear associated with Shoaib is no longer there...Indians played Lee who is equally faster to black and blue. this is no big deal. Though he may be able to take prize wickets by short pitch bouncers.

He won it when he first bowled against the Mighty God Tendulkar and silened not only him but Dravid and 80,000 crowd at Eden Garden! It took Tendulkar 4 years to have a go at him!

then he had a brand name, which used to instill fear. now i guess it is no longer there, he will be played like any other player. Afridi might do more damage than shoaib considering his form.

He humiliated the God and the Wall in 2003 in 2 successive balls along with 80000 people in Eden Gardens! After 4 years of practice finally Tendulkar was able to take revenge!

OH yea those 4 years he spent with yourMUM doing it ! chucking Breaking and Entering ! hehehehehe gugga guu
His own team-mate Wasim Akram has confessed that Akhtar was scared to bowl to Sachin and Viru when they slaughtered him during the 2003 World Cup. The man is losing his speed while bowling, and memory while talking!

Wasim had to give you some news to sweeten your tea! Stuck in 2003, when the same guy took out experienced Dravids and Tendulakars in successive balls in 1999. on 17 occasions when he bowled against Tendu he took his wicket 10 times. So what about 2003? he is a strike bowler, bowls over pitch like Waqar using the logic if you miss i will hit a notion developed in Pak bowling by Imran Khan with success. When Pak played against India in ICC champion trophy, all the stats said Pak is goign to loose cause? Pakistan has never won against India in an ICC event. result was? India lost! Emotions aside, appreciate a player about his caliber, just dont diss because he is Pakistani or Aussie! cuase both these teams have better results against India!
