How they can label this khassi as "genius" is beyond me. Talk about misusing and abusing a term used for legendary cricketers like Akram, Lara, Murali etc. Really.
Re: Must Read... About Irfan Pathan,His family and his struggle, May Allah bless all.
do you have any idea what his childhood was and how he has rose to fame... By the way your so called khassi is 2nd ranked bowler in the world...
Re: Must Read... About Irfan Pathan,His family and his struggle, May Allah bless all...
The game, its exactly as you can call another fellow muslim a "Khasee" rather then appreciating his and his families efforts.
Shame
Re: Must Read... About Irfan Pathan,His family and his struggle, May Allah bless all.
*Blah blah blah. What is there to appreciate? His family wasn't the only one suffering during the riots. I was strictly talking about his cricketing abilities and how he is a khassi bowler who relies on the early movement in the pitch and then sh*ts his pants when the ball stops moving around; thus, the word "genius" does not apply to him. I don't care what he went through. Mohammad Yousuf's family was probably even poorer than Pathan's family, so we have enough stories of our own. *

We can discuss Irfan as a bowler… as well… you can praise others as well..
Though learn to respect the people who have won against adversities… 
Re: Must Read… About Irfan Pathan,His family and his struggle, May Allah bless all.
I surely do respect them. I’m just baffled by the use of the word “genius” for him though, that’s all. I always thought Akram and Lara were “geniuses”, not jumaa jumaa aath din ke bachay :o .

shohaib missing ... i guess ...
Re: Must Read… About Irfan Pathan,His family and his struggle, May Allah bless all.
Yes, he is. I will be the first one to admit that he wasted his prime being a prima donna and focusing on things other than cricket. But he has found his direction, and I think he still has a lot to offer to Pakistani cricket. In any situation, he is more of a “genius” than Pathan ever will be as a bowler. Really.

Unfortunately in this world, when someone doesn’t use his or her intellegence, they are not called a genius, they are called “stupid”.

I have to agree unfortunately :o .
