Yup for the opposition.What a loss!
Or, better still, Sajid Mahmood?Any chance of them signing up James Anderson???
Yeah like Pakistan have any better bowlers than Kaneria and Sami.Just read it on another forum. All I want to say is
YES YES!!!!!!
Finally Pak cricket has got rid of that cancer now lets hope Faisal Iqbal, Danish Warneria and Yasir Hameed follows him
You could make a convincing argument for Sami to be the worst test bowler in history (and I think someone did).Yeah like Pakistan have any better bowlers than Kaneria and Sami.
While that may be true, If Pakistan had any better bowlers, Sami would not have played test cricket for 7 years and 33 tests.You could make a convincing argument for Sami to be the worst test bowler in history (and I think someone did).

Yup for the opposition.
Finally it will be 11 vs 11 rather then the 10 vs 12 which we have got so used to atm.
Nail in the coffin for the ICL. They must be desperate.
I hope he's gone for good this time. I don't think even Imran has the power to bring him back anymore.
So I take it we all agree that he's been a fine cricketer for Pakistan then?Just read it on another forum. All I want to say is
YES YES!!!!!!

Wrong, that's not the way Pakistan selection works.While that may be true, If Pakistan had any better bowlers, Sami would not have played test cricket for 7 years and 33 tests.
There atleast dozen better bowlers then Danish and Sami on our domestic circut. Kaneria is not even the no 1 spinner for Habib Bank if you have a look at the records Mohd Aslam the left-arm spinner continously outperforms him and as for Sami his performances on the domestic circut though not as poor as they are on Int circut are still pretty average. I know people who follow Pakistan domestic cricket very closely and many believe Rauf, Najaf Shah, Sohail Khan, Wahab Riaz and now Anwar Ali are much better bowler then Sami is/was and you never know there might be some some more hidden in our poorly organized domestic structure.Yeah like Pakistan have any better bowlers than Kaneria and Sami.
That's pure speculation on your part. Sami was given chances because the likes of Iftikhar Anjum, Naved Ul Hasan, Mohammad Zahid, Mohammad Akram, Fazal-e-Akbar, Riaz Afridi etc all turned out crap.There atleast dozen better bowlers then Danish and Sami on our domestic circut.

I believe the only reason Sami was given soo many chances was due to continous support shown by Imran Khan ,since Imran had such a wonderfull eye for talent spotting in his captaincy days that people find it impossible to believe that he could be wrong at times.
