Re: Talking about young talent .....

if you combine the career of all these, still they are short of tendulkar's centuries

Re: Talking about young talent .....

If you look at the above stats and examine carefully .......look at the opposition and their bowlers. says it all. The likes of Australia, England as the opposition are not listed.

Re: Talking about young talent …

This shows another thing how quickly we find talent and loose 'em

Re: Talking about young talent .....

Very nice, morbidangel.
One thing that these stats demonstrate that we got lots of potential talent but could never groom them well. Imran Nazir is the best example. Even, Salim Elahi was a great player but he got in the Pak team when there was nothing but politics going over Cricket. Hope, it doesn't happen anymore.
