Where in Rawalpindi do you live? Akhter’s family resides near Ayub Park… However, he attended Degree College Satellite Town right next to my residence…
in Morgah and much more closer to Attock Oil Company than Ayub Park....
go straight from Ayub Park (when the park is on ur left) and turn right from the company's entrance....
both me and shoaib reside on this same road...
** Wah Bhi Wah **

Shoaib is THE BEst..
So Armughal and Spock, since both of you lived close to Shoaib Akhtar, did any of you come across him and got your butt kicked by him.
I heard he was a big gundha before he started playing cricket.

Umair, I didnt live close to him as morgah is very far away, but I lived right next to his college... Saw him lots of times and he also played there for some time... I last saw him at 'All that rock' cafe in Islamabad but that was a while back...
However, back in 92-93 we used to get press cards from an uncle and we could sit on the boundary line in all the domestic cricket matches in rawalpindi stadium... That was fun, I mean we would get to meet virtually all the players eventually, and there werent too many ppl around... The only person I could never meet was salim malik, as he was always busy whenever his team Habib Bank played...

Rawalpindi Express wants to ram into Sachin
New Delhi, July 8
Breaking the 100 miles per hour barrier may be one of his targets, but Pakistan speedster Shoaib Akhtar is more keen to have another go at his greatest rival -Sachin Tendulkar.
Shoaib is looking forward to another duel with the batting maestro but has no idea when he will get the chance since cricketing ties between India and Pakistan have been suspended.
**"Indias got great batsmen like Sachin. They have a lot of great guys playing for them, Id like to bowl to them. I havent bowled to them for the last couple of years, so its no good for me," **the gangling paceman said.
The world`s fastest bowler has played the Indians only once in the highly- charged Asian Test Championship in Kolkata three years ago.
Pakistan won that game by 46 runs and Akhtar claimed four wickets in each innings, including the prized scalp of Tendulkar for a duck.
"Playing against India is definitely more exciting, more passionate. I hope we get to play each other again," Akhtar said in a television programme beamed on Star Sports recently.
Akhtar, dubbed as the Rawalpindi Express, said Pakistani cricketers missed playing against India and cricket had suffered in general because of the political strife between the two countries.
"We should play more often...Take politics out of sport, politics has nothing to do with sport. I think if we cannot play against each other in home countries, we should go out and play somewhere else," he said.
Shoaib wondered why the two countries could not live peacefully and hoped the political scenario would improve quickly.
"Its pretty bad at the moment, but I am hoping for the best and things are going to get better. At the end of the day, were the same people, were the same colour... everything`s the same, why are our ideas different, why cannot we live in peace," he said.
Shoaib said breaking the 100 miles per hour was not one of his main targets. He believed he could bowl even faster if he sets his mind to it. But that is not what is important for him or the team.
"Being the fastest bowler in the world does not make me a better bowler. What makes me a better bowler is getting wickets," he explained.
"I always enjoy my game. I always fly around, I always have fun... When I run in, I can feel the basic rhythm, I feel the music in my bowling, and when I get the wickets, it makes me feel really good," he said.
AK
It would be great contest, the world's best batsman vs the world's best fast bowler.
I smell another golden duck.
That is what a true bowler always feels
