Pakistan have played 874 ODIs, winning 460, losing 388, tying 8 with 18 ending in no-result. Pakistan were the 1992 World Cup champions, and were runners-up in the 1999 tournament. Pakistan, in conjunction with other countries in South Asia, have hosted the 1987 and 1996 World Cups, with the 1996 final being hosted at Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore. The team has also played 110 Twenty20 Internationals, the most of any team, winning 64 losing 43 and tying 3. Pakistan won the 2009 ICC World Twenty20 and were runners-up in the inaugural tournament in 2007.
Of course they finished together. Younis and Misbah were one of the great partnerships. They started late, because Misbah became a regular member of the team only in 2009 when he was 34 but still scored more runs together than any other pair of Pakistan batsmen. In the long history of Test cricket, only two pairs scored more runs in partnership at a higher average. Jack Hobbs and Herbert Sutcliffe were one, Justin Langer and Ricky Ponting the other. Then it is Misbah and Younis, 3,213 altogether, at 68.36. After Allah, his wife and his children, Younis was the one Misbah wanted to thank in his farewell speech. “It was a very fine journey with him in the middle,” he said. “My name will come with his and be remembered in history.”
lol @ those who think Zaheer was a flat track bully. Zaheer was one of the finest batsmen produced by Pakistan - pure class, elegance and grace at the wicket, exquisite timing being his hallmark.
I second Benster 2, for what he said. Jury is questionable for not including Mohammad Yousuf in the all time XI. This is seriously annoying. A batsman who has the best batting average in history of Pakistani Test Cricket has been left out of the team. Zaheer Abbas's inclusion is surprising. He has never been a match winner for Pakistan. And he scored 12 centuries, only half the number of centuries scored by Mohammad Yousuf. I am extremely disappointed by this selection.
Always an analyst, Sarfraz discovered reverse swing by bowling with balls of all conditions, new, semi-new and old. He began on matting wickets, where he could cut the ball. “One day I shone one side of a very old ball and it swung. It was rough on both sides but I shone one side and it swung towards the shine – it should not have done this.” In that Eureka moment, reverse swing was born. He refined the new technique at the Mozang Link Cricket Club in Lahore. His opening partner Saleem Mir also knew how to reverse swing, but they kept it a secret from other bowlers.
‘Feeling cheap, used and empty usually means the detox has worked.’ ‘Darling, they’re playing our ringtone!’ ‘Just how many lives does Michael Gove have?’ ‘I don’t care what her name is — why can’t you do something useful like invent a wheel?’ ‘I don’t fancy being stuck in the jungle with Paul Nuttall!’ ‘You’re not by any chance related to George Osborne?’ ‘They say do you mind going round the block a few thousand times?

Misbah-ul-Haq and Younis Khan, who had been the mainstays of the Pakistani batting line-up, announced their retirement from Test cricket (the only format they played) at the completion of the West Indies cricket tour 2017. Pakistan won the T20I series 3-1 and the ODI series 2-1 in the same tour under the captaincy of Sarfraz Ahmed. In his final Test series, Misbah made history by being the first Pakistani captain to win an away Test series against the West Indies.
The life ban lasted only 10 months but by the time he returned Misbah was in charge. Mohammad Yousuf, Shahid Afridi and Salman Butt had done the job in the time in between, one was banned, one quit, and the other was caught fixing. The captaincy was cursed but Misbah lifted it. He led Pakistan to the top of the world rankings for the first time and did it even though his team were stuck in perpetual exile, away from their families and their fans, had lost their two best fast bowlers to spot-fixing bans and their leading spinner after he was called for chucking and made to remodel his action.
It seems that sentimentality is clouding people´s judgment here. I find it remarkable that YK has double the votes of Miandad. To put things in perspective, I remember that Miandad was considered to be on the same level as Gavaskar and Sir Viv. Not even YK´S most ardent supporters would claim that he could ever be mentioned in the same breath as Sachin, Ponting, Lara, Dravid or Kallis. I,ve seen this phenonemon in other sports, where the modern hero is compared favourably to past greats.
At the age of 19, Aslam boasts of an excellent average of 49.50 in A-list cricket, better than most of the batsmen in the current squad. Aslam averaged 100-plus in his last ODI tournament, which was held two months prior to the World Cup. Aslam also scored a century in the finals against Khyber Pakhtunkhwa’s domestic team, which had star bowlers like Junaid Khan and Yasir Shah.
This man was pure elegance, and would have been the perfect batsman to follow the dynamic trio. Although the 'Asian Bradman' was a classical batsman in every regard, he could annihilate slow bowlers, which is a fantastic trait for a T20 no.4 batsman. Abbas boasted a limited overs batting average of 47.62. His strike rate, considering how in the 70s most batsmen scored at a snail’s pace, was an astonishing 84.80.
Wow! What a brilliant team this is. Just imagine Pakistan is blowing first and started with two W's followed by Fazal Mahmood and Imran Khan. And in the middle overs, we've Qadair's magic. OMG, who will face them? A nightmare for the batsmen. And when it comes to batting, the style and aggression of Saeed Anwar combined with patient and technique of Hanif Muhammad makes it perfect formula for opening both in ODI and test. Do I need to say anything about the Asian Don Bradman, the majestic Javeed and the match winner of his era, "the big Inzi?" Perhaps the unanimous choice of all the Paki cricket fans would be Imran Khan and he simply deserved it. He is the most stylish and grace full cricketer I've ever seen. Sometime it looks like he is not a cricketer but infect a character of a fantasy story. Nice job done Osman, Pakistan Rockssssssssssssss
Muhammad Rameez has been playing first class cricket for 5 years now and has also represented Pakistan U19 team with great success. He's a 21 year old fast bowler who hails from Rawalpindi. He has taken 164 wickets in his 35 first class games so far at an average of less than 22. In the current season, he has 30 wickets to his name in 6 games. Lately, he has improved his batting a lot too, averaging 31 with the bat in the current season.
Asad Ali is just 23 years old but has a 6 year experience in first class cricket. He made his first class debut 2 days after his 17th birthday. He has played 66 first class matches so far taking 294 wickets averaging 23. In his List A career, he has taken 69 wickets in 37 games at an average of 20. In the current season, he's representing SNGPL and has taken 41 wickets so far in 8 games averaging below 20.

Sarfaraz Ahmad, the captain we do not deserve but the captain we need, is the Batman of the Pakistan cricket team. I would not blame Sarfaraz if he absconds to another country and applies for political asylum like Pakistani wicket keepers in the past. Watching him fight in this team makes you understand why Rashid Latif even started claiming catches he never took. One thing you can surely say about Sarfaraz is that he is a keeper.
But Iqbal thinks the form book goes out of the window in limited-overs cricket, saying: "The team that plays well on the day wins, not necessarily the best team. To me, it's a 50-50 opportunity."
Junaid: I have played the vast majority of my international cricket in Asia and as I mentioned that is not an easy task for a pace bowler. Also the injuries were a setback and it has taken me time to get back to my best. Look at Mohammad Amir, whilst he played recently in more bowler-friendly conditions in England he didn't appear to be in full rhythm as it takes time to get back to your best when you have been out of the game. Similarly with myself I came back from injury, was called-up for Pakistan and then dropped very quickly.
As a Test captain, Misbah has the priceless gift of looking as though he always has a plan on the field. In fact, he usually does. He has gained victories with an inexperienced attack since the loss of his former matchwinner, the spinner Saeed Ajmal, with a suspect action. When he led Pakistan to a 2 - 0 victory over England last winter in the UAE, none of his bowlers had taken 100 Test wickets.
The 2014 ICC World T20 was held by Bangladesh. the Pakistani team was in Bangladesh prior to the World T20, due to 2014 Asia Cup, which was held by Bangladesh. Pakistan played for the Group 2, with mighty oppositions. The tournament was a disappointing one for the Pakistanis, where they won 2 and lost 2, finished the group as third and disqualified for the semi-finals.
Guys, I'd say these 3 are much more reliable than Yousuf (taking nothing away from him). I agee Yousuf is a class player, very easy on eye, silky batsman. But the only blot in his career has been his performances against top nations under pressure. These 3 have been much more reliable over the course of their careers then Yousuf.

The 24 year old Aqeel Anjum hails from Mirpurkhas, Sindh and represents Hyderabad. He's a left handed middle order batsman, something that Pakistan hasn't had for quite some time now. Aqeel has been a consistent performer over the last few seasons and averages in mid forties in both First-class and List A. In current season, Aqeel has averaged over 70 so far and scored 2 hundreds and 3 fifties.
My philosophy is that just because I don't have a central contract that doesn't mean that I won't be picked. If they want to give me a central contract that's fine, if not, then that's OK also. My sole aim is to get back on track with my bowling and earn an international recall.
Having witnessed Miandad, Inzamam, Yousuf, Younis, and Saeed, I would say it is a very difficult question. Each one of them has some distinctive features.
bilal Sep 05, 2015 09:16pm @shoukat please read carefully before commenting. Where did I say Waqar was terrible or not good? my point is that Waqar was never the best. And I am not sure he would have been a good T20 bowler. A good T20 bowler needs guile and variation above all. Waqar was best during death overs when the ball would begin to reverse swing. During a twenty over match, few balls would begin to reverse. The best younis comparison over the past years is lasith malinga. Would you consider malinga to be a legend of the T20 format? The truth is that very few of the people mentioned above would be actual legends in the T20 format. As a nation we have the tendency to over indulge in our ego. Of the people mentioned, only wasim akram, Saeed Anwar, Imran khan, Saqlain Mushtaq could have been legends of this format. Recommend 0
On 23 March 2007, Pakistan players and officials were questioned by Jamaican police and submitted DNA samples along with fingerprints, as part of the routine enquiries in the investigation into Woolmer's murder. Three days after leaving the West Indies for Pakistan, via London, the Pakistan team were ruled out as suspects. The deputy commissioner of Jamaican police. Mark Shields, the detective in charge of the investigation, announced, "It's fair to say they are now being treated as witnesses." "I have got no evidence to suggest it was anybody in the squad." A memorial service was held in Sacred Heart Church, Lahore, for Bob Woolmer on 1 April 2007. Among the attendees were Pakistan players and dignitaries, including Inzamam-ul-Haq, who was quoted as saying, "After Woolmer's family, the Pakistan team was the most aggrieved by his death." After the World Cup ended, serious doubts were raised about the investigation, with increasing speculation that Woolmer died of natural causes. This has now been accepted as fact, and the case has been closed.
A formidable combination at home. There would be one or two concerns in series outside Pakistan. In away Tests Abdul Qadir's wickets cost 47 apiece. Zaheer's record against pace on bouncy pitches was not very good. A more secure number three would have been Majid or Younis Khan. Wasim Bari was a great wicket-keeper, but could only realistically be accomodated by including all-rounder Mushtaq Mohammad instead of one of the bowlers. Fazal, the finest matting bowler after SF Barnes, has to play. The fielding is not as good as that of the other all-time teams. On the other hand, none of the rival elevens has the capacity of Imran, Wasim and Waqar to take the pitch out of the equation and hit the stumps.

In Zaheer Abbas, Javed Miandad and Inzamam-ul-Haq, you've picked three batsmen who all had terrible records against the best teams of their era. It shows a lack of imagination on the part of the jury.
After 1992 Khan remained in the public eye as a philanthropist. He experienced a religious awakening, embracing Sufi mysticism and shedding his earlier playboy image. In one of his philanthropic endeavours, Khan acted as the primary fund-raiser for the Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital, a specialized cancer hospital in Lahore, which opened in 1994. The hospital was named after Khan’s mother, who had died of cancer in 1985.
Finally, a word about the shape of the line-up. Pakistan have been at their best when they have played attacking, aggressive cricket, Almost exclusively, that has come from the nature of their bowling attack, which is why the all-time XI has a four-man bowling attack and Imran Khan.
Polo Ground, Fort Colony, Multan Cantt. This famous cricket ground where I have also played as a school boy, is the one where Amin Lakhani of Pakistan in the 1980s, took a rare hat-rick in each inning of a first class match against the West Indies.
I totally agree. He is just the same he was on debut. There is no improvement in his technique. Hafeez, kamran akmal, misbah, rahat ali, etc all must be rwmoved. Young blood to be admitted in the team who has positive approach towards the game and dare enough to bat and bowl in any pressure situation.
Al Sep 07, 2015 12:51pm @Irtiza Correct, Razaq was a murder in late overs. Give him 5 overs and he would slaughter you. His dazzling stroke play would have been no match for Imran Recommend 0
The 2012 edition of World T20 was held in Sri Lanka, where Pakistan grouped in Group D with New Zealand, and Bangladesh. They won comfortably against the two teams, and stood up as top of group D. In super eight contest, Pakistan first played against South Africa, where Pakistan won the match by just 2 runs. next match was against India, which always given a much publicity by all over the fans. Pakistan bowled out for just 128 runs, where India reached the target with only 2 wickets given. Pakistan won their last Super eight match against Australia by 32 runs, where Saeed Ajmal performed well in the match by taking 3 wickets for 17 runs. Pakistan qualified for the semi-finals after superior net run rate than India.
The greatest limited overs batsman Pakistan has ever produced, Miandad would have been the man to oversee the late overs assault, holding the batting order together for the hitters. His strength was his cut shots, innovative reverse sweeps, aggressive running, and a steely determination. T20 games often go down to the last ball, and there was no man better than Miandad to finish a game.

Khan was born into an affluent Pashtun family in Lahore and was educated at elite schools in Pakistan and the United Kingdom, including the Royal Grammar School in Worcester and Aitchison College in Lahore. There were several accomplished cricket players in his family, including two older cousins, Javed Burki and Majid Khan, who both served as captains of the Pakistan national team. Imran Khan played cricket in Pakistan and the United Kingdom in his teens and continued playing while studying philosophy, politics, and economics at the University of Oxford. Khan played his first match for Pakistan’s national team in 1971, but he did not take a permanent place on the team until after his graduation from Oxford in 1976.

What is Diwali?
A festival with Hindu new year and light used a common metaphor for the self improvement showing the new beginnings,Each faith has its own reasons to celebrate this wonderful festival but for a lot of them it celebrates the idea of the legend of lord Rama and his wife Sita returning to there kingdom in North India which to me is a very exciting story and you can see the likelyhood of it being truth since many Indians very noble and kind people and the story creates excitement for all ages of people which is meant to have happened in 15 century BC
Diwali also plays a tribute to Lashmi which is the goddess of wealth and lanterns are setup in to honer the tradition to guide her to are homes each year.

After the World Cup ended, serious doubts were raised about the investigation, with increasing speculation that Woolmer died of natural causes. This has now been accepted as fact, and the case has been closed.
A formidable combination at home. There would be one or two concerns in series outside Pakistan. In away Tests Abdul Qadir's wickets cost 47 apiece. Zaheer's record against pace on bouncy pitches was not very good. A more secure number three would have been Majid or Younis Khan. Wasim Bari was a great wicket-keeper, but could only realistically be accomodated by including all-rounder Mushtaq Mohammad instead of one of the bowlers. Fazal, the finest matting bowler after SF Barnes, has to play. The fielding is not as good as that of the other all-time teams. On the other hand, none of the rival elevens has the capacity of Imran, Wasim and Waqar to take the pitch out of the equation and hit the stumps.

In Zaheer Abbas, Javed Miandad and Inzamam-ul-Haq, you've picked three batsmen who all had terrible records against the best teams of their era. It shows a lack of imagination on the part of the jury.
After 1992 Khan remained in the public eye as a philanthropist. He experienced a religious awakening, embracing Sufi mysticism and shedding his earlier playboy image. In one of his philanthropic endeavours, Khan acted as the primary fund-raiser for the Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital, a specialized cancer hospital in Lahore, which opened in 1994. The hospital was named after Khan’s mother, who had died of cancer in 1985.
Finally, a word about the shape of the line-up. Pakistan have been at their best when they have played attacking, aggressive cricket, Almost exclusively, that has come from the nature of their bowling attack, which is why the all-time XI has a four-man bowling attack and Imran Khan.
Polo Ground, Fort Colony, Multan Cantt. This famous cricket ground where I have also played as a school boy, is the one where Amin Lakhani of Pakistan in the 1980s, took a rare hat-rick in each inning of a first class match against the West Indies.
I totally agree. He is just the same he was on debut. There is no improvement in his technique. Hafeez, kamran akmal, misbah, rahat ali, etc all must be rwmoved. Young blood to be admitted in the team who has positive approach towards the game and dare enough to bat and bowl in any pressure situation.
Al Sep 07, 2015 12:51pm @Irtiza Correct, Razaq was a murder in late overs. Give him 5 overs and he would slaughter you. His dazzling stroke play would have been no match for Imran Recommend 0
The 2012 edition of World T20 was held in Sri Lanka, where Pakistan grouped in Group D with New Zealand, and Bangladesh. They won comfortably against the two teams, and stood up as top of group D. In super eight contest, Pakistan first played against South Africa, where Pakistan won the match by just 2 runs. next match was against India, which always given a much publicity by all over the fans. Pakistan bowled out for just 128 runs, where India reached the target with only 2 wickets given. Pakistan won their last Super eight match against Australia by 32 runs, where Saeed Ajmal performed well in the match by taking 3 wickets for 17 runs. Pakistan qualified for the semi-finals after superior net run rate than India.
The greatest limited overs batsman Pakistan has ever produced, Miandad would have been the man to oversee the late overs assault, holding the batting order together for the hitters. His strength was his cut shots, innovative reverse sweeps, aggressive running, and a steely determination. T20 games often go down to the last ball, and there was no man better than Miandad to finish a game.

What is Diwali?
A festival with Hindu new year and light used a common metaphor for the self improvement showing the new beginnings,Each faith has its own reasons to celebrate this wonderful festival but for a lot of them it celebrates the idea of the legend of lord Rama and his wife Sita returning to there kingdom in North India which to me is a very exciting story and you can see the likelyhood of it being truth since many Indians very noble and kind people and the story creates excitement for all ages of people which is meant to have happened in 15 century BC
Diwali also plays a tribute to Lashmi which is the goddess of wealth and lanterns are setup in to honer the tradition to guide her to are homes each year.

Pac-man is a significant activity, but this is not a great form of it. This copy of the 1980 arcade classic is an emulation of its 1991 Game Boy port. At that time, in 1991, this portable form was wonderful- frisking Pac-Man on a handheld was a rare give, and its conversion's endangers were understandable. But now, 20 years later, this take over Pac is way too outdated to go back to.

How the Charlotte Hornets find themselves top of the Eastern Conference

Seven games into the brand-new NBA season and we are starting to see decorations developing. In the west, the L.A. Clippers are looking very, very strong, the Golden State Warriors are establishing the signs of being the' super unit' we all expect them to be and the New Orleans Pelicans are bad- very bad.
In the East, the Cleveland Cavaliers are going to be the team to beat, the Atlanta Hawks are their usual mannequin of coherence and the Philadelphia 76 ers gaze prepared for another raffle picking in the 2017 enlist. But one anomaly lodges out when you look at the early endures; the Charlotte Hornets sit atop of the conference with a 6-1 record.
Yes, that's the same Hornets who lost Al Jefferson and Jeremy Lin in the summer and were tip-off to be around the 39 earns mark pass the end of the season.
So how have the Hornets managed to lead the eastern consideration in the early weeks? Well, often of it is down to their foes. Their one loss went to the Boston Celtics, who have themselves is an element of "the worlds largest" underwhelming components in the opening exchanges, but their earns have come against a number of the league's strugglers.
Milwaukee, Miami, Philadelphia, Brooklyn, Indiana and Utah have amassed a collective register of 18-27, but the Hornets is simply annihilated what is in front of them and are really created the level expectation.
Their upcoming action of fixtures; visits to the Cleveland Cavaliers and Atlanta Hawks sandwiched between palace encounters with the Toronto Raptors and Atlanta Hawks has certainly test their ability to compete with the stronger components in the NBA.
But, given their start with a apparently weaker listing, it's only fair to be acknowledged that it has been done. Losing Jefferson, who put up 12 tiers and 6.4 comebacks per tournament, and Lin- 11.7 tiers a darknes off the bench- has been a punch, but a few members of their listing have stepped up to the plate.
Kemba Walker, at 23.9 tiers, is averaging three more per tournament than last-place season and has seen on an even more prominent reputation in the offence with his usage rating rising by 3.8% to 30.5%. There have also been irreplaceable tallying contributions from a number of role players.
Nicolas Batum's outlay has fallen quite- from 14.9 to 12.7- but Cody Zeller is dropping virtually three more points a darknes, Frank Kaminsky is up from 7.5 to 11.4 and Spencer Hawes has climbed from 6 to 9.3. So, in truth, it's pretty simple; a mix of an easy-going start and improved scoring from a number of musicians has slunk the Hornets into early consideration supremacy.
Their prolonged success remainders on the shoulders of Walker, but killing a career-high field goal percentage and dishing out over five facilitates per tournament, he seems be prepared to take over its own responsibilities.
