He is still fit. He is dragging it to the WC.

The thing about these great players like Inzi is that if they are at one end then other batsman has a lot of confidence. So as long as he there, Pakistan plays well. I wonder whats going to happen to Sri Lanka, Pakistan, and Australia after the WC. Many top players retiring.

As far as i have heard ,Inzy lost 8 kilos before the World Cup 2003 but still he did not manage to succeed .

I remember Imran Khan called for Inzy to be sacked as skipper against the aussies on tour in 2004-05 but Inzamam turned it around with some great victories and some sensational form of his own.So without a doubt he is still good enough to playn and fit enough.



Greatest obese batsman is Inzamam. For the best player title he has heck of a competition with Arjuna Ranatunga

Wiseguy basically just laid the smackdown on the idea of Inzy needing to retire. For me, a ridiculous thought.

Inzi is worth gold for pakistan, and with his match winning ability, each team in the world rates him the most prized wicket of the pakistan team. He is as important to pakistan's chances of winning the world cup as is tendolkar to india, Jayasuria to srilanka, ponting to ausies, smith to SA, Lara to windies, (fleming+astle+marshal) to Newzealand, whole bangladesh 11 to bangladesh.

so far so good!

well i thnk he should play till WC '07 after that he should retire from One Dayers bcz a man like INzi get exposed in a such a afast game of 50 overs.Beside that he should continue playing test Cric.Slip field is best for him in TEsts.

I believe thats what he plans , to retire after the world cup, probably from both forms of cricket and I believe that would be the right time for him to Bid farewell to the great game!
so far so good!

I doubt if a slimmer Inzi proves better, becos pakistan suffered for his ultrafitness in the 2003 world cup! we want him effective, even if he puts on another few kilos!
so far so good!

Good point Wisey! There's a bonus too , if his batting goes off they can still use him as the heavy roller!!

What Clapo was referring to, and indeed why I took up the cudgel in this instance was that people are getting sick of those who automatically cry racism at anything they don't like being said, when race has nothing to do with it at all.

I agree mate , the "R" word is thrown around too glibly and in most cases , without foundation. Maybe it's time to go for some wholesale deletions!

Very funny 2 day silence. now lets finish the topic.

i think if inzy gets too big to field properly, he shouldnt ahve his aplce in the team, even though he can bat. I mean, there has to be a limit somewhere. I reckon start him bowling a bit in the nets.

 look people this is a dead subject, he is one of the best batsmen in the world and in the odis he was showing everyone how to field with lots of athletic stops at short cover. sure , he can't bowl but not everyone can.

I don't believe that Inzamam is too unfit to play cricket. No matter how fat or overweight he may be (and I personally believe that a lot of it is muscle and not fat), he is one of the best batsmen the world has ever seen and he is an immensely talented cricketer. He is 36 years of age now and has been around for a very long time so naturally he will be beginning to tire now so running may well not be his strong point, however in the recent series V England he hit some excellent boundaries and some huge sixes at a strike rate of 111.5, which is quite some strike rate, so I feel he is perfectly capable of playing cricket at the highest level and he certainly has another couple of years top level cricket in him just yet I believe.

Fit or not fit he has to be in the team to keep them together, even when he retires i think he should be kept with the pakistani team as a Coach or Trainer........, he has given the Unity and Character to the Pakistani team which they lacked. Imran kahn & wasim akram were great Captains but they were never able to give this to thier teams...

 

Proud to be Pakistani !

Not really HawkEye! Inzi is a great player but don't exaggerate the things by rating his leadership skills above Imran's. And also please don't flatter about his appointment as a coach / trainer after retirement, because it doesn't seem sensible to me at least. No one is and should be indispensible for any team.

Inzi has definately achieved phenomenal success with pakistani team and no doubt he has brought back the team spirit lacking in pakistani teams of yesteryears!

He should be flown to India with the team just to keep him away from the rest and excessive eating at home, as you may see a even fatter Inzi by the next series! infact he should be sent to an army commando training center for time being!

so far so good!
