^ but it begs the Q where is all the bowling talent that some of us keep bragging about? It seems our bowling resources are severely depleted if anything with nil bench strength. Frankly I have not seen a real fast bowling talent emerge from Pakistan since Akhtar (who at his peak is in the same class as Imran Khan and the two W's capable of destroying any batting line-up). Asif and Gul are decent rather than great. Plus in those days we had Saqlain who was a very effective one-day bowler.
Pakistan will never be able to come up with "real fast bowling talent" in future unless ICC take it easy on tampering and doping checks.
