WOW!
I’m surprised to see Azhar Mahmood’s name up their, I remember something about scoring a century on test debut but I didn’t know it was that big.
Specially considering thats the all time list.
Why in the world did I miss that match?
I think the reason why Azhar Mahmood played badly against Australia specially because he was trying to match himself with Shoaib and other fast bowlers in the team by bowling really fast, if he would have bowled like his usual he would have alot of success, just like Razzaq.
He is a really good batsman but plays some really bad shots to get himself out.
Such great talent.
Only in Pakistan!
