Holy Moly !!

Since when did Saqlain start speaking this pharratedaar British-accented English.

I distinctly remember him using Wasim Akram as a translator during the presentation ceremony after a game against Australia (or NZ) back when he first arrived on the scene.

Even Mushtaq is on top of the world

Re: Holy Moly !!

the only person who did not learn English is INzi!!!!!!!!!!!!!.

I play I out, I no play I out. Is not rule not understand.

Re: Holy Moly !!

Ive heard Mushtaq Ahmed was always an entertaining player to have on the field, constantly cracking jokes and doing stuff to bring a smile on the face. I remember Moin Khan asking him to deliver a 'dheela' once and he smiles back and goes 'dheelay par watt na lag jaye yar' with a quirky smile.

But the change in Saqlain is quite something - from needing an English translator TO speaking English with a British accent.

There is hope for Praveen Kumar yet.

Re: Holy Moly !!

Not that it matters, but thats really not a British accent, just a fake/forced one, and hes making tonnes of mistakes, but still, kudos to him for making the effort to learn English. He lives in england now, and is married to a Pakistani-Brit. His begum must have helped him out.

Re: Holy Moly !!

^Yep...no question his accent is fake...not to mention the liberal sprinkling of "You Know"s.
But like you said, the fact that he even got to this point is commendable.
