I will never forget last moment words of a commentator:

This game began with Miandad, continued with Miandad and end with Miandad

CRICKET KI DUNYA MEIN SUB SE AGAY HA WOH KUAN…JAVED MIANDAD

[This message has been edited by Pakistani Tiger (edited July 13, 2002).]

Best of all time PAK vs IND with Miandad SIX I cannot come up with any other exciting match.

Do you guys remember watching the match? If so do u remember the camera man kept shwoing these 2 girls with scarf on their head kept praying for PAK and 2 girls from other side probably indian looking so tense. And when at the end Miandad hit six the camera man showed those 2 girls again and they were huging each other with happyness and crying with excitement. Can never forget those feelings.

As far as one day cricket is concerned my fav is the same Pakistan vs India, Australasia Cup final, 1986. that Pakistan won because of Javed Miandad.

When it comes to test matches my fav is the decider of Pakistan's tour of India (1987). Here is the score card.

Those were good matches, but did you guys see the match b/w Pakistan and Australia in Hobart, 93-94? Where Asif Mujtaba drew a one sided match in the end by hitting a six on the last ball of the match when they needed 7 runs to win?

That was a big shocker and a classic!

Sure, I watched that match, too.

It ended up as tie b/w Pakistan & Australia

TAKE YOUR BEST SHOT AT ME

As for test matches are concerned the best match has to be Pak vs Ind in Asian test Championship, that was the happiest moment for me ever, only after the 92 world cup final.

I mean the sight of Shoaib blowing away the stumps of the top 2 Indian batsman was the best sight ever.

And also the sight of 90,000 people crying like babies was also a treat to watch.

I'm glad I'm a Pakistani!


Here's my favourite :
Independence Cup final at Dhaka... Kanitkar hit a four off the penultimate ball to win the match for India.The Pakis had scored 314 in 48 overs.

I would suggest you to stop visiting kehl khilari and flooding it with your hate mesgs.

Waqar Younis is one of the greatest bowlers we have seen. Any bowler can be hit on a particular day. He is a great cricketer and a nice human being.


AK

aaah if we consider your logic a valid one then Abdul Razzaq also proved ( i dont rem the tour but he twice got 10dulkar’s middle stump) that 10Dulkar is actually DuckDulkar.

Make some sense dear either you are lacking gray matter or you are a kid or your age is effecting your posts

Note : Not that 10Dulkar is a duckDulkar he really is a great batsmen.

Has anyone noticed some glaring similarities between the posts and posting style of chilli and Hizbul behan?

Both of them commented on Pakistan's news sites and how inappropriate they were. Now, Hizbul is launching into Waqar in a style that was patented by chilli behan.

Any thoughts? Hizbul baji you are also welcome to conduct your defence.

Yeh chilli-willi kyaa hai ..

Asif_k, Quite honestly Waqar Younis is a highly over-rated bowler. That ofcourse is my opinion. The only Paki bowler who is genuinely great is Wasim Akram. I have never seen him being treated ruthlessly by any bastman. With a short run up , he can deliver potentially lethal deliveries.
As for your comments regarding Waqar being a good human being... sorry buddy but we are discussing cricket here not somebody's personality traits... and please do not try to garner points on this forum.

This was my fav. too till the "Miracle on Lords by Kaif"

Waqar is probably the best fast bowler Pakistan has ever produced. Hizbul, jealous again??? heh

Asif_k, Quite honestly Waqar Younis is a highly over-rated bowler.

Thats where you have it wrong my friend, Waqar Younis is the exact opposite of that, he is highly under rated, though his performance have gone down from the past couple years due to his aging and his captaincy, he is still able to come up with brilliant bowling performances everyother time.
Remember his deadly spell in the 2nd test against England in Manchester, probably the best ever, he was beating the English batsman on every single delivery.
And not to forget his brilliant back to back 7 wickets against England, and 6 wickets against Australia last year in the Natwest Series.
I think he is the top bowler with most 5+ wickets in one days and he is still so under rated.
It was a shame that he had to miss the World Cup in 92, as he was the most emerging bowler in the international scene at that time or Pakistan would have won even more convincingly, kind of like todays Shoaib.
He was called the fastest bowler in the world when he started in 90 even beating Marshall who was aging at that time.
He has the record of fastest 100 wickets in matches, only 59 innings, still stands today.
So looking at that this guy should have won FICA this year but poor guy didn't even get nominated for the best player award, he even lost to Mark Butcher in some boring innings he played against Australia.

Overall, it is completely opposite of what you said about Waqar, he is probably the most under rated bowler of all time, if it wasn't for his injuries, politics and Wasim, he would have been way past Wasim's one day record.
He is still the 2nd highest wicket taker, he is 100 wickets and 100 matches behind wasim, if he would have played the same amount of innings as Wasim he would have been way past 500 wickets.


waqar is probably the best fast bowler the world has ever seen....
had he not been put on the side benches cuz of his problems with wasim, he wud have crossed the 500 mark way back....

he has played only around half the number of matches played by wasim and see the difference in their wickets!!!!

a big loss to pakistan by making him sit out for so long....

For those jealous of waqars record… have a look at this…
