Cruel jokes on Kamran Akmal

[Gooch20]

some jokes in the pakistani media


- Behind every successful batsman there is Kamran Akmal.

- What do Kamran and Michael Jackson have in common? They both wear gloves for no reason.

- Kamran Akmal's favourite pickup line? "Can I drop you somewhere?"

- Why was Kamran Akmal late for practice, because he forgot to catch the team bus.

I feel sorry for that guy in the video. It must be embarrassing to be called Kakmal.

haha Pakpassion has a thread where they have compiled a list of all his grassed chances since 06. I believe there are a few stumpings missing from it, but last I checked they had tallied more than 60.

It also has at what score the batsmen was dropped on and what they ended up making. Epic thread.

[xanderbiscuits]

link?

If it's not allowed to link other forums in threads then pm me the link please

The list is simply jaw-dropping. I’ll copy it (hope I’m not breaking any internet etiquette by doing so; if so, I’ll delete it). All credit goes to the person who posted this on Pakpassion:

Umar Gul to Collingwood, no run, gone, out, no! Dropped! Leg-cutter, outside edge straight to Kamran Akmal ? dreadful shot from Collingwood I might add ? and, somehow, Akmal shelled it.

38.2 Collingwood was on 21(Final Score = 31)
Shahid Nazir to Collingwood, no run, yikes, Collingwood hangs his bat out to dry ? good away-swing from Shahid again ? but it passes his outside edge. Nevertheless, Akmal somehow drops a clanger and the ball bobbles from his gloves

70.1 Kallis was on 63 (Final Score = 91)
Danish Kaneria to Kallis, no run, oh no - has Akmal dropped yet another one? Ooh, not sure - Kallis went chasing that one and seemed to feather it through to Akmal who drops it. But the replays are inconclusive. Akmal's having a poor match anyway.

Mohammad Asif to Prior, 4 leg byes, 128.9 kph, and that one's dropped, but a very tough chance for Kamran. You can't expect him to take that - it's an inside edge onto the thigh and then sneaking past the stumps, Kamran dives and just gets his left fingertip to the ball as it runs away towards fine leg for a boundary
Steve Davis has called that leg byes, but there was an inside edge on it, no question

He then threw a big dive with outstretched left hand but couldn't hold on. Replays don't confirm an edge. It seems it went off the thigh.



ICC Cricket World Cup - 24th match, Group A

60) 24th Match, Group A: New Zealand v Pakistan at Pallekele, Mar 8, 2011 | Cricket Commentary | ESPN Cricinfo
13.2 Taylor was on 0 (Final Score = 131*)
Shoaib Akhtar to Taylor, FOUR, Ross gets a birthday gift, it's the Kamran moment, Shoaib got the edge with a perfect delivery that zipped away just a shade, the ball flew between younis and Kamran, who initially appeared to go for it, and then did the keeper's version of shouldering arms, stood stone still, as a bemused Younis looked on


61) 24th Match, Group A: New Zealand v Pakistan at Pallekele, Mar 8, 2011 | Cricket Commentary | ESPN Cricinfo
13.4 Taylor was on 8 (Final Score = 131*)
Shoaib Akhtar to Taylor, no run, oh I don't believe this, two birthday gifts is too much, from the same man too, Shoaib has Ross pushing at a one that held its line,and the healthy edge goes ever so slowly to Kamran who is in good position to take it, gets gloves on it, and clangs it, Shoaib can't do anything about it, boy is he distraught

62) 24th Match, Group A: New Zealand v Pakistan at Pallekele, Mar 8, 2011 | Cricket Commentary | ESPN Cricinfo
30.4 Styris was on 4 (Final Score = 28)
Shahid Afridi to Styris, 1 run, another drop from Kamran, outside off, Styris looks to stab it from the crease, edged and Kamran's horror day continues, Afridi is not amused


Pakistan Vs England, Trent Bridge, 2010.

70.2 Collingwood was on 48(Final Score = 82)
Danish Kaneria to Collingwood, no run, missed stumping! Kamran's really not having a good day... Collingwood charged down the track, was beaten in the air and by the turn. He was practically walking off he was so far down, but Kamran fumbled the take, and couldn't pick the ball up before the batsman got back in. Kaneria really needed that wicket - Pakistan needed it!



Pakistan Vs England, Oval, 2006.
64)http://www.espncricinfo.com/engvpak/...iew=commentary
40.3 Mahmood was on 0 (Final Score = 15)
Danish Kaneria to Mahmood, 4 byes, ah, should have been out. Mahmood came down the wicket aiming to hoick that over mid-on; instead he completely missed it and should have been stumped by yards but Akmal didn’t even move and the ball flew past his gloves really easily



Pakistan in South Africa Test Series - 2nd Test

40.4 Prince was on 17 (Final Score = 22)
Danish Kaneria to Prince, no run, stumping chance missed! A lovely teasing flighted delivery, again Prince comes down the track and is beaten by the flight and the dip. The ball threads through the bat and pad gap and is just outside off stump and Akmal clangs it. Would have been definitely out had he gathered.

Flavour of the month, isn't he ?

[Agent Nationaux]

I feel sorry for Sami and Kaneria. Akmal has ruined their careers.

[Blaze 18]

He has helped more careers than he has ruined to be honest.

[Agent Nationaux]

You can add one or more to the list when Pak play Zimbabwe. In fact it's their captains birthday on monday
