With the bagladesh seies round the corner. does anyojne now why these two are not playing the amro cup. they need to play against the bang to get some much needed match practise.

I heard Shoaib was in KRL but no sign of him.

Where is asif?

These two need some match practise before the important asia cup and icc champ trophy's.

I doubt that Asif is fit enough to play. Akhtar wont be selected for the Bangladesh series.

akhtar has to be selected for bang series if fit.

Maybe Akhtar is not serious as he left (or some say kicked out) in the pentangular cup and probably not playing the current ODI series. Wouldn't these two also been some kind of match practice? Plus the local batsman have to play bowlers like him so they are better prepared

I thought the process had already started with him and Kaneria disciplinary action, at least it had been reported as such.

I don't see why he shouldn't be allowed to play in the current ODI FC series.

oh right!

Aus - Brett lee, Stuart Clark, Nathan Bracken (considered as the BEST ODI bowler currently)

SL - Malinga, Murali, Vaas

Ind - RP, Ishant, Zaheer, P. Kumar, Irfan

SA - Steyn, Nel, Langeveldt

All these bowlers listed above are 'b' grade attack. Shoaib Akhtar is the only phaast and phurious bowler in the cricketing world.

Let him get match fit first, maybe then we can discuss how good is he actually :))

How many games can Shoaib play without actually breaking down ?

When will AAG attack feature together ?

Just because they have the 'potential' of running through a team, it does not necessarily mean they are the best ;-)

AAG has never "run through" any team nor shown any signs of ever happening.

Shoiab could run through teams but now he is old and fat I highly doubt it. He will be lucky to ever play for Pakistan again.

Asif is getting fit by the time and there is every chance that he will play against bangladesh to get some sort of confidence and match practice his next assignment is IPL then Asia cup so he need to be both mentally and physically fit to meet these challenges.

About Akhtar : He had the best chance to prove fitness in Pentangular cup and he played one match of it but then after he leave that tournament by saying that it is a "B" grade tournament ,ball are not good, pitches are dump and then went to india run top less in the streets of Mumbai to prove his fitness-STRANGE

If any person deserve to be lapidated he is Mr.Shoaib Akhtar

Irrelevant mate.

Shoaib has the 'potential' to run through any team. It does not even matter if he plays from here on. He is still phast and phurious :21:

With Shoaib's dispute still going on with the PCB.

It looks like more valuable match practise is being lost for shoaib.

his return is now likely to be next month but inshallah i do hope to see him feature in the bang serious :59: :59: :59:

PCB are really taking the p1ss!! :pissed:
