In other quotes as I have told,, u simply cant compare GOOD players with GREATS.

u cant compare anyone with Lara or sachin,

u cant compare anyone with jhonty when it comes to fielding and list goes endless ......GREAT's and GOOD's are always miles apart.

One series performance or couple of years good performance does not make a GOOD player GREAT.

GREAT players perform throught their carriers.      

Boss ,,, WASIM  is the greatest left hand bowler till date .Irfan is still very young and u cant compare him with WASIM.

Chaudhary was a great bowler with the highest wickets in ODI,Its good that he gave Irfan little tips  , but Ifran had an ear to listen to the great - thats attitude.

Well the bowling style and looks ,to a great extent are somewhat same,,, u can call GURU-SHISHYA [i mean Mentor - student].

But when it comes to batting ,,, Irfan is a complete player ,, coz many ppl dont know this ,, Irfan was chosen as a batsman when he was under 15.  

Are u guys fools. Wasim is absolutely brilliant. He was sharp in pace, accurate enough, conventional swing both ways, reverse swing and he was a left armer, which gave variety.

He was alos a more then useful batsmen, clean striker of the ball. Hitting sixes was his forte. 12 sixes in an innnings against Zim, he got 257* that match, superb (not the best bowling attack, but still brilliant). Also he got a few more 100's in tests and was a handy player in the lower order for Paki and all of the 1st class teams he played for in England and Pakistan.

I rest my case.

i have never seen wasim akram ball so i wouldn't have a clue if pathan bowls like wasim

i knew pathan was young and fresh but 21 i didnt know that he could be the first to score 3000 test runs and 300wickets unless someone already done that if not then 4000 runs and 400 wickets

Irfan will keep on imporving his batting ability for next 3-4 years and become genuine batsman

thats right he will develop a lota as a bowler when he plays a lot more matches and then i think  he ,may likely be compared to wasim.

i have heard that he got his lessons sform wasim . is that true??????????????

It was good to see Pathan on fire. What an achievement. But Pakitan recovered well with a wonderful knot from Akmal, what a knot.

But Pathan lacks sheer pace, which was one of the major characteristics of Wasim's bowling early in his career. But as India does not have real speedsters with sheer pace, ever in their team, so Irfan would hopefully have a lot of oppertunities to play as their main stream bowler, and would retire with a lot of wonderful records under his belt. As far as variety is concernd, Pathan is capable of develpoing variety, in his bowling as the time elapses.

thats exactly what happened to Inzy of pakistan ,, pak didnt ever have a decent batsman at the top consistntly ,, so Inzy is ending his carrier with so many runs ,, coz every time he had to play [or as u said pllay] ,,

and the same thing applies when Inzy being compared to Sachin

Sachin was consistent for 90% of his carrier ,,,Inzy laked Consistency at of being at the top always

In your words but morphed

It was good to see Inzy of late on fire. What an achievement.

But Inzy lacks consistency throught carrier, which was one of the major characteristics of Sachins entire carrier career. But as Pakistan does not have real batsman with talent, ever in their team, so Inzy would hopefully have a lot of oppertunities to play as their main stream batsman, and would retire with a lot of wonderful records under his belt. As far as variety time is concernd, Inzy time is almost over ,, coz he will have to retire .

yeah i know the current form of Sachin, he has been a failure for too long now. Despite that u can give him a big hand. Big hand to little master.

What about Shahid Afridi, Krisdy, punishing indian attack like hell, they looked miserable when Afridi is on fire. Four sixes to Harbajan in a row, the poor soul. And Indians are way behind Pakistan, just see the records. So if u are always annoyed with Inzi or any other Pakistani player, it is quite undrestandable. Keep it up, but it wont help India a lot.

And if u still feel unsatisfied, just remember Salim Malik at Calcutta, when in last six overs Paksitan needed 66 to win and Malik ruined Indian bowlers, by leading Pakistan to victory.

And Javed Miandad, with a wonderful six, in Sharja Cup final. Still u may say. How does it feel mate?

for me all that counts was the four world cup matches btn India and Pakistan ,,, every time in front of the world ,,,,,when everyone was watching ,,, India have insulted pakistan .

and yes all those were on neutral pitches and not at sharjha

moreover dont ever try to compare that stupid miandad with the great Sunil gavaskar ,,, minadad was nothing more that a street cricketer ,, he never had class , neither any records to show except for that last ball six

u talk of afridi ,, ha ha ha what dhoni did to shoaib ,, 4 fours in over ,,, shoiab was so frustrated that he bowled a beamer to stop him

And mate, Gavaskar was such a mean player, never played for the team. I have watched him a lot, never convinced that he was really a team player. He always batted India to defeat.

And Sharja is also a neutral place, it not part of Pakistan soil. Have u ever studied geography.......well just get a map and it would do the job.

U can call Miandad anything, i won't mind, becoz u don't even know Imran Khan. U r such an ignorant person.

Righto, Pathan is yet a kid with a lot of career ahead. He may develop from good to a great bowler, but one thing he would lack throughout his career is sheer pace, thats for sure. So no comparison with Wasim.

Its fast fast and fast kid. You know what Wasim was really quick in beginning of his career. Afterwards he made some adjustments but still he was quicker than Pathan. And believe me, his balls after hitting the pitch moved like bullets. I mean he might not be that fast in the air but was able to generate great pace from the pitch.

And balls mean cricket balls, nothing else

Come on don't take it as offense dear, i did'nt really mean it. I know that u know a lot about cricket. And don't think myself superior than anybody, rather i think actually i am not, coz there are so many wise people around here from whom i learn a lot. So never mind and cheers.

And u urself now say my sentence RIGHT. U mean i write my sentence in a way which was right. Right?

And believe me, there is a button called Edit, located just below your signatures, and if you wanna use that, nobody would question your abilities, rather JP would quite happy about it, as he says "He who makes no mistakes, does nothing, Use edit button."

i think pathan is a great young bowler but is still young, in time i think he will be one of the greatest all rounders to play the game

why is it that the indian players are compared with all time greats, bhaje vs Murali, Pathan vs Wasim , sehwag vs Inzimam, yuvraj vs Ponting .........!

they have just started to play and have a long way to go, there is no comparison of such kind and such stupid threads should just be ignored..........

hawkeye its not the indians who r starting this thread its the pakistani supporters. so first just check who has started this thread and then comment on anything.

if they r to be ignored then why r u giving your valuable comments in this type of forums

i also want this type of threads to be deleted but i can't do anything
