Shoaib Akhtar's IPL debut: Predictions?

Re: Shoaib Akhtar's IPL debut: Predictions?

Shoaib knows how to steal the show. With IPL, he can emerge as even bigger superstar in the game of Cricket. I don't know why ICC and PCB don't use him to promote Cricket.

I watched the highlights, and he was fast and furious, aggressive, and on-target. He hit 145+ right from the first ball. At least twice the batsmen tried to pull him, only to see the ball hurry on to the bat too early in the stroke.

The only thing of concern is that he was sweating profusely, and was huffing and puffing.

Shabi was lethal and his aeroplane celebration (in slow mo) after snaring Sehwag was a gr8 touch by the director in the ground! Shoaib is a special talent and I can't wait to see him back in the national colours once Anver Baig gets PCB revamped.

and he won his minibattle against tendlia as well, got him for a duck....
although next over he was smacked hard by jaysuria, but i guess he'll be more than happy that he got tendlia....
lets see what he can do against dhoni now....

The pathetic batting line-up of his team isn't helping much.
