Shoaib Akhtar- A waste?
Dr. Abdul Ruff ___________
Pakistani cricketer Shoaib Akhtar is undoubtedly a super fast bowler, but is totally spent bowler who has not mad any attempts to reinvigorate the sport method with new techniques and all his old techniques are too familiar to the opponent batboys. Akhtar is clearly over spent and is now unfit to play in today’s cricket when the teams are expected to restrict runs. He not only refuses restricts runs, but also, on the contrary, offers enough runs to every batboys so that Pakistan does not win the match easily. Does also, like his president Zardari does it on people, takes revenge on the selectors for keeping him out of international cricket for too long? Akhtar maybe a good runner, but is a costly bowler.He refuses to make at least one maiden over. Maybe skipper Afridi, who plays a sort of game without any order these days for whatever reasons, has instructed him to do so.
All old cricketers n every country needs to b replaced by new faces so that new cricket emerges. The fear that only the senior cricketers alone can get runs or wickets by using their “links” should go, and if they play well every player can enjoy the sport, by building rapport with foreign players, as usual at the night parties. All efforts by Indian cricket mafia and media fanatics to make Sachuin Tendulkar the only living Indian worth mentioning have failed miserably and Tendulkar get 15 to 17 runs which is his real caliber. However, Indian media nuts especially the TV channels are diehard fanatics and are still hope the mafias and industrialists would go any distance to get Tendulkhar even a Nobel prize for his London wax achievement on payment basis.
Of course there is something basically wrong with the team mindset because after wining the toss they chose to field even when bating first has the added advantage.
In fact there is not cricketers who can score 100 plus without a helping handoff fellow batboys and opponent bowlers and fielders. Legends are created for some purposes but in sports there is an extra reason.
