Well after the England series i wrote to u that the pitches
will play an important part in the series against India … but
it seems that u people toook this matter for granted and thought that
we have won against England on these pitches then same formula can be
applied aginast England …
But from the result of the first two tests its quite clear that Indains
are too good to be beaten on these type of pitches … u people keep
on saying that we will create supporting tracks and stuff like that again
and again but the real picture always comes to be different.
If u ask for supporting wickets then who people are to be blamed for these
pitches … these are curators,PCB or u and the captain … and I am still
not ahure that we will be able to see a supporting wicket at Karachi.
Second as it was evident from the first test on these type of pitches batsman
will always score heavily … then why in the world u people decided to bring
in Razzaq … who is by no means a peoper test bowler or a batsman … I am
really impressed by the Indain management that they went for the result as they
dropped Ganguly and brought in the fith bowler which was exactly what the doctors
ordered for these pitches … but u people wnt on to strengthen your batting
how strange?
Plz give a brief statemnt for both the issues.

Hi ali_bukhari,
I am amazed that you think that these pitches are the same as teh England one’s? I am not sure why you need to blame people, I guess it is your culture that is always looking to blame. Weather and over use were the main reasons for the first two pitches get over it they are history now.
As it turned out with Inzamam injured and malik’s father dying it was just as well we went with Razzak. Funnily enough though this was not the reason. sami was ill and Rana suffered a shoulder injury the day before the game.
So all your conspracy theories have to be thrown in the bin!!
Re: BOB Woolmer "I guess it is your culture that is always looking to blame"
pak_tiger, it is **you **who needs to go now. He is referring to ALI_BUKHARI's personal trait (culture) of blaming everything on someone. If you cant understand english then take some classes.
The fact that you didnt say anything about the most stupid comment posted by ALI_BUKHARI.. the fact that you didnt find anything wrong with it, it is you who needs to go pak_tiger.
Dude are you like blind or something? Did you just wake up from a two year coma or something? Do you even get out of your room ever to see whats happening in the outside world? Under Bob Woolmer in one year we have DRAWN, DRAWN, WON, WON four series' in consecutive order against formiddable opponents.
Seriously, once again, it is you who needs to go. Goodbye.
