Re: Shoaib Akhter - In the Guiness
ohh I thought the record had to do with the most rondu and shirking player in Cricket History… but alas this is what the record says:
Shoaib Akhtar: Fastest Cricket Bowler
The highest electronically measured speed for a ball bowled by any bowler is 100.23mph (161.3km/h) by Shoaib Akhtar (Pakistan) against England on 22 February 2003 in a World Cup match at Newlands, Cape Town, South Africa.
Nicknamed the ‘Rawalpindi Express’ Shoaib burst onto the cricket scene in 1999, but has since struggled to cement a first choice place in the Pakistan line-up. He has played for many teams, including: Agriculture Development Bank of Pakistan, Pakistan International Airlines, Rawalpindi Cricket Association, Somerset, Khan Research Labs, Durham, Lashings and Pakistan.
But this is the one that we should be proud of:
:k: :k: Wasim Akram: Most Wickets In A One-Day International Career :k: :k:
The most wickets taken over a one-day international cricket career is 440 by Pakistan’s Wasim Akram in 319 matches between 1985 and 2001. Wasim took the wickets at an average of 24.04 runs. Born in 1966 Lahore, Wasim Akram started playing cricket, like many Pakistanis, on the streets. He made his international debut at the age of 18 after an invitation to join the national team’s training camp as they prepared for a match against New Zealand. Wasim’s ability to move the ball in the air combined with his pace and accuracy has earned him a reputation as one of the world’s best fast bowlers. In February 2000, he received a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Pakistan Cricket Board.

Re: Shoaib Akhter - In the Guiness
mein agar ik record ka zikar kardoon na, tou saari duniya ke sportsmen paani paani hojayein.
Jehangir Khan: The most successful sportsman in any sport (winning ratio and conssecutive wins) 
Now thats something we should be proud of!
Re: Shoaib Akhter - In the Guiness
^^ Smooth yaar… Jahangir was helluva player from what I’ve heard… both him and Jansher have made Pakistan proud :k: :k:
Jahangir Khan: Most World Championship Squash Titles
Since the World Open was inaugurated in 1975, Jansher Khan has clinched the title eight times, with his relative Jahangir coming close behind winning six titles. But Jahangir has also claimed three International Squash Rackets Federation world individual titles, taking his tally of World titles to a record-breaking total of nine. In 1982 Jahangir astonished everyone by winning the International Squash Players Association Championship without losing a single point! Jansher played in his first World Open in 1987 in Birmingham, England, beating Jahangir in the semi-final. Jansher has only once failed to make it to the final in the 10 World Opens he has played.
WANT TO KNOW MORE?
The famous Khan family have dominated the sport of squash for over 50 years. The champion family originates from a village called Nawakille in Pakistan. Jansher (born in 1960 and whose name means “Lion-Hearted”) succeeded his relatives - Peshawar, Hashim, Azam, Roshan, Moibullah (Senior), and Jahangir, all of them champion squash stars. Since 1950, the family has won 29 British Opens.
GUESS WHAT?
Jansher Khan has beaten Australian Chris Dittmar a staggering 17 times in the finals! For much of Chris’ career he was ranked No.2 in the world, but finally managed to push Jansher off the top spot in the last week of his career.

Re: Shoaib Akhter - In the Guiness

Re: Shoaib Akhter - In the Guiness
^^ sorry - not a record-holder.
Re: Shoaib Akhter - In the Guiness
Care to explain why?
Re: Shoaib Akhter - In the Guiness
abey mujh pe kyuuN naraaz ho raha hai bhai - all I meant was that its not in the books... that's all... I do believe he has the highest ODI score ever... and fastest 20 hundreds in ODI but dunno why its not in the guinness records.
Re: Shoaib Akhter - In the Guiness
Oh okay. I thought you meant its not worth being in the books.. :D
Re: Shoaib Akhter - In the Guiness
AS someone said above Jehangir and wasim were there befoer Shoaib and Jehangir is the one we really should be proud of. It was an awesome record. 5 years without defeat. The guy did not lose a game, let alone a match.
Re: Shoaib Akhter - In the Guiness
Wow - Shoaib played for 'Khan Research Labs'!!
I believe Pakistan should hand him over to the USA for questioning. This should guarantee his non-availability for Pakistan and the embarrassment his presence causes to the nation.
Re: Shoaib Akhter - In the Guiness
With the exit of Great “Mighty Khans” of Squash arena some how has put a damper on
Sports proceedings in Pakistan. What planning or Miracle can revive it ? 
:k:
I smell conspiracy 
^ Shoaib is our asset and I would not allow any disrespect to him or any other Pakistani sportsmen, let alone handing them over to the USA bully.
You better ^ take that back before I 'beat you up ’

Re: Shoaib Akhter - In the Guiness
