They will never ‘clear’ malik ND.
He is a Pakistani Player and like PCB has no value nor respect in the view of
ICC ++
2ndly Pakistan seems to be “Open” to play any where and any time -
What a grace !!
Re: Pakistan’s tour to India/Akhtar Fined.(Merged)
Rainy, FYI Shoaib Malik's arm angles at 19 degrees and when he throws a ball it goes up to 22-24 or even higher. Do you think it'll be an easy task clearing him?
Re: Pakistan’s tour to India/Akhtar Fined.(Merged)
I know that. I was just telling ND to be ready for the worst 
Re: Pakistan’s tour to India/Akhtar Fined.(Merged)
Well after reading last week Q & A's at Woolmers website I can agree shoaib is not a good fit for test matches and now it will question whether he can soley be a batsman in ODi's ...
Perhaps this will be a blessing in disguise and the spot of number 6 will be well fought between Afridi and Razzaq

Re: Pakistan’s tour to India/Akhtar Fined.(Merged)
nice squad
Re: Pakistan’s tour to India/Akhtar Fined.(Merged)
Rao is dropped! Now Younis Khan is the Vice Captain .... hmmmmmmmmmm
Re: Pakistan’s tour to India/Akhtar Fined.(Merged)
Taufeeq is included in the squad, anybody's guess how many chances he'll get ?
Re: Pakistan’s tour to India/Akhtar Fined.(Merged)
I have been trying to figure out the strength of our team. The only area I can come up with this is the middle order ( yousuf,Inzi & Younis).with the exclusion of Shoaib Akhtar, bowling will be our weakness. I really don't see how Arshad khan can be effective, I would rather have Hafeez. He is pretty decent with his offspin, doosra etc. and his batting is suited for test matches.
It will be interesting how effective Naveed will be in sub continent pitches. The encouraging part is his ability to swing the bowl both ways.
Khalil saheb's bowling was very flat even in the Austrailian pitches, so I'm not too excited about his inclusion.
Shahid Nazir can prove to be a useful bowler. He has a good nact of taking wickets. He can swing the bowl..
Re: Pakistan’s tour to India/Akhtar Fined.(Merged)
^ bu Shahid Nazir is not in squad.
Re: Pakistan’s tour to India/Akhtar Fined.(Merged)
^ yeh to haal hai logoun ka :-|
glad nobody is in favour of 'Safdar Abbas' openning the batting instead of taking penalty corners,,,
