Derailed, sounds too old to me, yes he is known as Rawalpindi express but still i think we need to come up with some other name when he is not doing well…?
How about " Photo Khench OeY" coz of his love of persenal attention!
Re: Shoaib Getting......
or i can go even lower if u want me to. my ability to go low will amaze you :p
Re: Shoaib Getting......
Everyone is. Pollock and Flintoff too. Ofcourse, you being a shmucky bandwagoner have to pick on him. No surprise.
Re: Shoaib Getting…
I thought there was no comparison of Shoaib Akhtar 
Re: Shoaib Getting......
my personal best "chaarsi" as the saudi fans call him
Re: Shoaib Getting…
OUCHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH… THAT REMARK GOT TO HURT SOME PEOPLE… ALL THIS TIME I WAS TOLD THE SAME BY SOME PEOPLE THAT SHOAIB HAS NO COMPARISON…
Re: Shoaib Getting......
Afridi's record of fastest 100 might have broken by Adam, if Shoaib was not there to start the attack. World XI bowlers were treated badly by Gilchrist and co. World XI and its bowlers were extremely lucky as Symonds only faced about a dozen deliveries.
"Rawalpindi Express" is the most suitable title, if someone has actually travelled on an express in Pakistan. It is not very uncommon to find an express delayed for hours without any known reason. But then they are the best option available for (long) travel.
Re: Shoaib Getting......
Wicketless in both matches. This is the man who aparently was supposed to be the ONLY ONE capable of getting Australia's top seven 200 run scoring batsmen out. Yep, its the man himself.
Sincerely,
Captain Lota
Re: Shoaib Getting......
So, is he getting Lota after this wonderful show of performance? I think he needs one.
Re: Shoaib Getting…
Thank you so much Shoaib for saving Afridi’s record, agar Afridi ka record toot jata to Shoaib pata nahi kia karta phew… btw Shoaib’s first over was maiden, the other weren’t
Re: Shoaib Getting…
Not in Pakistan, and I still stand by that statement. You know and I know that this thread is more of a joke than anything else. The way Flintoff was treated (After Flintoff had troubled Gilchrist so much in the Ashes), I am not surprised that Shoaib got a hammering as well. Shoaib’s one day record has been going downhill I will admit, but I would still rather see him in the Pakistan one day team than the pie thrower Sami.
Re: Shoaib Getting......
I wish he could do better , but i think only 2-3 years more years cricket left in him .
His pace is not a big deal now unless he concentrate on his line and length.
Re: Shoaib Getting......
Shoaib is also getting OLD. He is 30...
Re: Shoaib Getting......

Point.
His head is not in the right place. Frankly, never has been ever since the world's fastest bowler label. He lacks passion now which he once used to have. Many people thought his career would surpass Wasim and Waqar. He's not even close. People, start appreciating what Rana brings to every game, and search for other bowlers. Time has come to realize this unless it's too late for ya in 2007.

**Too many players made it to the team on their star value rather than contemporary merit. Shoaib Akhtar was a mere show pony, content at a couple of speedy bouncers in the first couple of overs before he ran out of steam. He was rarely seen at the practice sessions and on his current fitness level, seems good only for Twenty-20 cricket where he can get away with a three-over spell. **

^ ouch.
