The Proteas have a rich cricketing history intertwined with politics and more than a few legendary players. How much do you know about team with no World Cups?

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.

The inertia afflicting the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) when it comes to seemingly simple decisions is nowhere more apparent than in the recent choice of expert help. It’s well known that PCB management, for reasons best known to themselves, is a little hesitant to make ground-breaking decisions regarding coaching appointments.

There aren’t too many sports rivalries that exist in today’s world that come close to matching Pakistan-India cricket matches. A rivalry that has withstood the test of time, the lack of recent matches – the two sides haven’t played each other in a series for almost five years – has served to fuel rather than stifle the intensity. This will no doubt be at the forefront of the minds of players of both teams during the five-match limited overs series which kicks off in Bangalore in a couple of weeks.

As Pakistan and India prepare to renew their age old rivalry on the field of cricket with a limited over series beginning on 25 December, they will not only be watched and cheered on by thousands of fans at the stadia, but also by a select group of distinguished individuals who have served Pakistani cricket with honour and dedication.Referred to simply as “legends”, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has decided to send a delegation of 10 of Pakistan’s most famous and well known cricketers from a bygone era to represent Pakistan on an official capacity where they will undoubtedly join their counterparts from India in witnessing the resumption of Indo Pak cricketing ties.

Pakistan's injury concerns increased ahead of the limited overs internationals tour of India after Asad Shafiq damaged a finger whilst playing for the Karachi Dolphins in domestic cricket. With the first match against their arch rivals less then three weeks away, left arm spinner Raza Hasan was yesterday ruled out of the series after sustaining a back injury. Today there was further bad news for the selectors when batsman Asad Shafiq suffered a finger injury whilst taking part in the ongoing Faysal Bank T20 Cup in Lahore.

Pakistan's left arm spinner Raza Hasan has been ruled out of the upcoming tour of India. The 20 year-old from Sialkot has featured in only 2 matches for the Stallions in the ongoing Faysal Bank T20 tournament in Lahore taking 1/15 against Islamabad and 0/5 in 3 overs against Quetta.Hasan who has played seven T20Is for Pakistan and greatly impressed in the World T20 earlier this year in Sri Lanka with his variety and control, sustained the injury after twisting his ankle and putting pressure on his back, causing damage to a disc.
