Cricket is not for the weak of heart, just ask any avid cricket follower. We go from cheering our team to abusing their downfalls in a matter of 6 balls. Children become instantly religious at the prospect of a super over and when it comes to a Pakistan-India match, one can only see red. There is no rivalry as electrifying and emotional as that between these two cricketing nations and the history, passion and respect remains unmatched.

Speaking with the media at Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium, PCB Chairman Zaka Ashraf said the Pakistan team will visit India with a message of peace.
"Peace and Friendship is in the interest of both countries. We are not concerned about Bal Thackery or any types of threats - his influence is only in Mumbai and we are not playing there. Our message for Thackeray is of peace. The team will travel to India as per agreed schedule and we are assured of the security to be provided by Indian government which is based upon their pledge. The team will play a series in India after a duration of 5 years which is a source of great satisfaction for both countries"

Mohammed Azharuddin had it all - the presence, the silken touch - the stature that a nation expects from their captain.
In a generation of demi-Gods that a nation could look upto, Azhar was right up there with the likes of SRT,Ganguly and Dravid.
But then it happened. We discovered that the man who could have carved his name in the annals of history alongside other Muslims captain of India - the late Mansoor Khan of Pataudi - had clay feet.
After allegations of match fixing against Azhar, in 2000 a BCCI committee comprising of President A C Muthaiah and two vice-presidents Kamal Morarka and K M Ram Prasad, decided to impose a life time ban.

With just 15 days remaining until Pakistan’s first tour of India in five years, the selectors unveiled the names of the squads for the two ODIs and three T20s against the arch-rivals. The headline-grabbing news was the omission of Shahid Afridi from the ODI squad, the first time he has been dropped for poor performance since the 2006 tour of the Caribbean. In the last 10 ODIs in which he has batted, Afridi has scored 85 runs at an average of just 9.44 to go with seven wickets at 45.77. It’s hard to argue based on these numbers that the chief selector Iqbal Qasim made the wrong call.
With 286 international wickets to his name as well as a seat in the commentary box, former New Zealand fast bowler Danny Morrison is perfectly placed to provide an insightful analysis on the up and coming fast bowling talent in the country. In exclusive comments to Pakpassion.net, Morrison gave his thoughts on the pace trio that was so successful for the Black Caps in Sri Lanka last month.
PakPassion.net has learnt that the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB)is forcing it's players, against their wishes, to speak with certain sections of the media.As per strictly established and enforced rules, contracted players have a long list of guidelines that they must abide by in their dealings with the media. The PCB have, thus, been enforcing a hard line and strict policies on it's cricketers particularly on discipline and interaction with the media.
