This has literally been an embarassing defeat of pakistan !!!...shitt maann...honestly there is no point of giving excuses tht we didnt hav akhtar or afridi........we sucked all time in the field and with the bat....and as far as inzi is concerned....one would keep on qustioning tht how the hell did inzi become the best captain of pakistan since wasim akram..sami is a another joker who doesnt use his brain when he bowls....all he does is staring at the batsman at unsuitable situations or he either seeks revenge if he gets beten for a four or a six...and for god's sake..get rid of yasir arafat rite now ...anywayz....good thing is tht the series is over
a couple of questions
1. the problem i find with inzi's batting is tht...he often gets dismissed when he plays an awkward premeditated sweep-shot especially against spinners...another problem is tht ...inzi seriously needs to adapt some aggressive/ruthless approach especially in the field....wht do u think?
2. is there any possiblity of razzaq to increase his pace a little bit...at least he could bowl consistently at around 85 mph?
3. dont u think umar gul has actually changed his bowling action comparitively to his action in 2004? probablly it is affecting his line and length
4. i hav no problems with yonis khan..but however i feel u must work on his batting especially his ability to slog
5. wen u hav a regular opener salman butt.....u shuld have used him for the final odi
GOOD LUK FOR THE NEXT TOUR...I BELIEVE IN U!

Just for a second think that all of the likes of Imran Khan, Waqar, Mushtaq Mohammad, Zaheer Abbas, Holding , Amir Sohail are wrong about the batiing order and you are right !!!!. And still Pak loosing. I have to say that i cant see any of your work. What i see that on many times your stratergies are childish and very poor. It seems that the coach of this team isnt doing any thing. And to me if a person thinks that he knows every thing , i think that he know nothing. So just try to listen what the other greats of the Pakistani cricket thinks. I cant understand any of your stratergies!! Just like poor batting order!! And in your era fielding is the most worst. So i think that your presence is having a bad effect on the team.Playing hand ball wont do any thing with fielding. You must work hard .I think that a coach must not have too much authorities as you have. Any how if you dont prove good for the Pak cricket it will be beter that you must quit!!!!!!

Ppl are reacting to much and all great! explayer who were used to win all the match they played :)) :)) :)) are really playing excellent now with their very big mouth.

[Slugger]

it's always the idiots Bob replies to! bob gets paid an enormous amount of money not to mention other luxuries...he should be winning every series the way he's compensated

[pakistani pride]

idiots really ! Bw has done so wel we need to send a message to him with support !

[Jibran]

I dont think ppl are saying bad things. they are just making suggestions for improvement. Inzi should learn how to handle criticism and use some suggestions from more experienced and senior players. Such a laid back attitude does not help. After all we are a world class team and we should not be acting like this. Yeah one loss is not that bad but hey we need to learn from our mistakes not think hey its just one loss; so what we won other series. This kind of an attitudee will cost us.

[Raz]

Typical reaction from the ignorant fans who fail to see the bigger picture. Yes we lost, yes it was bad but at the same time its good that it happened. At least we can rectify these problems in time for the WC!! Just imagine if this had happened in the World Cup!!!

[lahori]

There's only so much BW can do. In the end it also boils down both individual performance as well as collective team effort.

[nafajafam]

I think majority of the fans would be happier if Pakistan had lost the tests but won the onedayers.

[pacman]

These so called fans of Pakistan seems to be suffering from memory loss. BW has done wonders for the team. Granted he has put a lot of hard work on improving the test side, and he accepted that this might be the reason for the decline in the one day form.

The good thing about Woolmer is that he can take critisicm. And it is proven by the fact that he actually cares to answer such stupid remarks, which are viewable to the whole world.

BW is the best coach Pakistan has ever had. Any setback are going to be rectified. I am 100% sure of that. The fielding needs work, and he will make sure that this will become better. We might se some improvements in Sri Lanka, but overall Pakistan should be a good fielding side by the time we tour England.

[safiqksm]

Bw is the best, ne need to change him.We have to support him.The defeat is a really an eye opener.Bob must have clear strategy for fielding placement.AWAIS_SAEED194, he is very pathetic.

[jackal786]

When the series started i thought India would struggle in Tests as Pakistan players were in great touch and India had a small matter of "Ganguly issue" and so much turmoil following that. In one dayers i expected Pakistan to roll over India as Pakistan batting is the most ideal for ODIs. How wrong i was? I did not take that "fielding factor" into account. When India played srilanka everyone unanimously agreed this is possibly the best Indian fielding they have ever seen. Breathtaking saves, dives, catches. Add the growth of Pathan's batting utility and Dhoni's emergence and very smart captaincy of Dravid. You have factors in India's favor that tilts the balance. Pakistan fielding seriously let them down. They are the primary culprits alongwith repeated top order collapse. They missed so many direct hits. Poor gathering from fielders, poor backing up. On 325 plus pitches they put up poor totals.
India won't become a bad test side because of test series loss, Pakistan won't become a bad ODI side because of ODI series loss. But i must say woolmer is turning this side into a team full of utility players. Batsmen who can bowl a bit and bowlers who can bat a bit. It is a wrong theory in the long run and abroad. You need 6 solid genuine batsmen who know nothing about bowling! I cannot believe the audacity of Woolmer sending someone like Shoaib Malik to open the innings at test level!!

[Amjid Javed]

pakistan lose 4-1 shameful @ home to india. what do u expect fans to say to bob?

well done?? lol! the team lacked ideas and looked unprepared so woolmer deserves the abuse!

[Bewal Express]

Test matches are like gourmet meals, one day matches are like a MacDonalds value meal. I rather win the test matches over one day matches, if there was a choice. Test matches are real cricket, one day matches are just tamasha.

[Khalil]

A 4-1 defeat to a country like India on homesoil is a disgrace!

Bob made S.A a great fielding side why can't he do the same to the Pakistani team.

The bottom line is that the only reason why bob accepted the coaching job of Pakistan is for the boodle.

This guy went to South Africa during the evil and dark days of apartheid. The butchering of the black population meant nothing to him. He is just another prostitute who will sell his morals for material game.

[Khalil]

I rather win the test matches over one day matches

So you prefer winning a test match against Zimbabwe to a junkfood McDonalds 2007 Cricket World Cup :)

[IMMY69]

pakistan lose 4-1 shameful @ home to india. what do u expect fans to say to bob?

well done?? lol! the team lacked ideas and looked unprepared so woolmer deserves the abuse!

so what u are saying is that anyone who makes a mistake deserves to be abused?

putting aside the fact that the same person has done wonders for our one day team over the past 12 months and fantastically well in last two test match series??? no one deserves t be abused apart from maybe the abusers...

[Hash]

pakistan lose 4-1 shameful @ home to india. what do u expect fans to say to bob?

well done?? lol! the team lacked ideas and looked unprepared so woolmer deserves the abuse!

So surely Miandad deserved much more abuse after Jeet Lo Dil?

cant these fans take defeat?? one series loss and they end up in tears. PATHETIC
