Re: Inzmam Ul-haq

Inzi has socred 7621 runs in his test career at an average of 50.13. His overall test average against aussies is definitely below his standards i.e. 785 runs in 14 matches with an average of 31.40. He average with them in Australia is 30.87 in 8 matches and has scored 494 runs.
In ODI, he has scored 10971 runs at an average of 39.8. Against australia has scored 991 runs at an average of 31.96. In australia that average is 29.9 where he has scored 598 runs.
There is a point of telling all this to you. Compare his overll career average and then look at his average against Auusie. It is obvious they have always troubled him. But if you have followed cricket, you must be knowing that it happens to most of the greats. The list would be endless but since you gave examples of lara, dravid and kallis, so let me tell you something about them .Yes they have got impressive record against Australia. But if ROW has to play India, lara will not be an automatic selection choice. Same is the case with Kallis, If ROW have to play against Srilanka. Similarily Dravid doesn’t have an imoressive record against South Africa. All these players have averages in upper 50’s but against the sides mentioned, they have test averages in 30’s.
But I doubt, you have followed alot of cricket. Probabaly you started watching cricket late last year when Pakistan toured australia.

So why wouldn’t Lara and kallis be automatic choice against India or Sri Lanka??? Because they have a poor average against them??? If they are not automatic choice than this would NOT be ROW (leaving the best players out…)

Also in reality this wil never happen i.e. ROW V India - so you can forget about your theory… because India will never become the best in the world and importantly remain consistent like the Australia have been over the last decade or West indies of 70’s’ or 80’s.

And in answer to your question regarding me following cricket during Pakistans tour of Austrlia…For your information, I have been watching and following cricket a lot longer that.
