Cricketer Of The Year
The 'though' gave the wrong impression, I do enjoy watching Yasir bowl too. Yasir's reverse swinging yorkers are good to watch. On that note, Rana Naved, when he cranks it above 140kph is a good'un to watch too with that brilliant action of his.

Have always been an Arafat fan, and i agree that whatever chance he has gotten he has not been able to fulfill my expectations from him. BUT in his defense
1) He has never been given a complete series, has played 11 ODI's in 9 years on international cricket. Even after not a too bad performace in 07 T20 WC and test debute vs india, he was not part of 11 in any of the 10 games played VS ZIM and BD in early 08.
2) I am a very firm beliver that Yasir's best years were destroyed because of razzaq's ability of hitting 20+ balls of 40+ scores, twice in 15 odd ODI innings. Which not to me but for many people justified his lack of bowling abilities in post 2004 razaaq.
