I still remember that first time Sachin Tendulkar was bowled by Shoaib Akhtar. I believe it was the first time Sachin Tendulkar was facing Shoaib Akhtar. Honestly, when Sachin Tendulkar walked out in the field it felt like he did not have any respect for the pace of Shoaib Akhtar. But the ball was swinging and Shoaib Akhtar got a really sharp yorker in on the first ball and got the wicket of Sachin Tendulkar.

At that time the lineup of Shoaib Akhtar, Imran Khan, and Wasim Akram was the most effective bowling lineup cricket has ever produced, in my opinion. And Pakistan was heavily dependent on these players. In my memories, Pakistan always liked to bowl second because they could defend almost anything.

There is no doubt Pakistan cricket history if full of few legendary fast bowlers, those still remembered as they were few decades back just because of their bowling patience and accuracy and having great wins for their country. But sadly they are also having many issues on and off the field which bring too many controversies and other aspects as well with the arrival of Shaheen Afridi, Harris Rauf and Mohammad Hasnain we are feeling this golden era is coming back.

@posi Can you give me any test match detail where you have Shoaib Akhtar, Wasim Akram and Imran Khan because I never have these players in test match with Imran Khan retired from test cricket in 1992 and Shoaib Akhter was having test cap in 1997.

Shaheen Afridi is good but he is not a match of Imran Khan.
Imran Khan is a genius - if you happen to see how he is fighting for the rights of Pakistani people and there is a regime change tournament going on in Pakistan for last three months. The longest match of the history!

Why are you mixing politics with cricket here ? Not many know or are interested to know about the internal political issues in Pakistan. If you need to discuss about this regime change thing, either open up a thread in Politics & Society section or you can discuss the same in local Pakistan thread.

Coming to the match Srilanka 51-2 , Are we going to see another twist in this match?
