Mike Hussey vs Pakistani Bowlers!!

Pakistan seem to be the only country who will have the better of Mike Hussey
All of the current pakistani bowlers have got him cheaply and troubled him

Sami, Asif, Akhtar, Gul, Arafat and shockingly RAO IFTIKHAR!!!

Heres some of the scorecards

ha, thats proves absolutely nothing.

But seriously though 2008 could be a big year for Australia in that they have big tours to Pakistan & the Windies, where they could be without the likes of Gilly, Langer, Hayden, McGrath & Warne.

Hussey could score a string of ducks throughout the series and Aussies would still win every match. They have too many performers in too many places.

It's quite amusing that he scored 124 before being bowled by Shoaib Akhtar.

Adharcic,
I realize the Shoaib/Asif decision was shockingly bad, and Pakistan cricket will be tainted as a result, but is it really necessary to resort to the "druggie" insult at every turn? So you have one misguided fan shooting off his mouth about the Ausies and you respond with the above retort. Coming from you, whom I respect, this is in poor taste. Now I'm sure I'm about to get a boatload of responses from people saying "what do you expect with those two in your team?". The thing is, every respectable Pakistani poster on this site condemned the over-turning of the bans. However, to bring this up in seemingly every discussion about Pakistan cricket is a tad unfair. I'm probably asking for too much, but I wish that it would stop.

Edit: Reading through my post, I may have put out the impression that I'm singling you out. That's definitely not my intention. I'm talking about this in a general sense. It seems like whenever Pakistani cricket is mentioned now days at CW, the "d" word is not far behind. To be expected some would say I'm sure, but still unfair.

I do not think its right to blame or criticize the fans of a country because of the actions of its board, something they have no say in. Many Pakistani fans did criticize the reinstatement, and even if they did not, they were not the ones who overturned the bans. "Take care of your own druggies" would be appropriate only if you were talking to the panel that overturned the bans, or someone from the PCB who has a say in selection.

And just to compare: At least Pakistan has drug tests, India does not have any regular system of drug testing its players.

First of all, my apologies. Unlike most CW posters, I don't usually resort to that insult. This is actually the first time I've associated Pakistan with the whole Asif/Akhtar incident that just happened. I was just having a little fun and particularly responding to "gunner", who was getting a little too excited over nothing and deserved some in return. I have nothing against Pakistani cricket and I hope they do well in the near and far future.

One more time, this is the first time I've mentioned the "d"-word with Pakistan and it was not even directed at Pakistani cricket or any Pakistani fans apart from the misinformed one who began to post rubbish here. Like you, I also find it annoying when certain posters keep bringing up the same thing just to be an ass - it becomes very irritating and annoying.

My bad here.
