Shahid Afridi is trying to whip the team back in to shape
After being trashed and slashed by local and international media any team would have been in low spirits.
I don’t know about PCB and its support to our match winning bowlers like Mohammad Aamir. I cannot predict whether or not the ICC will lift the ban from our star players before the World Cup. But it seems now that after a short – unbearable – break, our players are gaining back their confidence.
May team Pakistan win this ODI series versus a strong and full of confidence competitor, South Africa. Only our support will motivate and encourage these players. I have always supported team Pakistan and will not comment on why ICC will sustain the ban on players accused of spot-fixing.
Our players have enormous potential. If only all of them could perform at the same time will they be able to realize what excellent professional cricketers they are – then let the experts critique them for their performance.
It is amazing how the crowd reacts when Shahid Afridi comes out in the field to bat. No matter how he handles his bat or throws a shot the his fans never get tired of cheering for him. No doubt he has worked hard but his confidence speaks of the support he gets from his homeland.
I hope our team gets back on track asap! I pray that they bring home the big cup!

We do, what we do best!
Yeah, first we discussed “oh did you see how the two dacoits got beaten to death in Sialkot?” But later it turned to “OH MY GOD!! Did you see how they killed two brothers blaming them to be robbers?”
Yeah, we are always in a hurry. We have this annoying habit of passing on what we hear from others without even thinking if that is true or not. Some ‘gora’ reporter set up our players, made a news report and wow we believed all of it without even thinking for once about the people who play for Pakistan, for you and for me! Oh wait, but we saw the videos, didn’t we? I have never seen this in any Hollywood or even Bollywood movie how they temper photos and videos. I know that the video never showed any player taking the money by hand, but I will still blame them. Oh yes, I saw the jacket! The jacket in which first the cash was put in and later the ‘gora’ gave it to Asif. I could not think may be the gora went to Asif and said that he was a fan and want to give the jacket as a present and later the reporter videoed the guy inside a car, putting in the cash. I have no idea what editing a video means!
No, Aamir took the cash and then bowled out 4 English batsmen for 0 in the third test. Yes he took the money for not performing and that is worst performance of all time. Oh, I have never seen fast bowlers placing no-balls. Never happens. Check the records! And I have no idea what Photoshop is used for?
I am just a dumb Pakistani who doesn’t know the difference between a trick and magic. I am a dumb Pakistani who will judge from some media report what the truth is. I have stopped thinking. I am a pessimist. And I will keep on doing what I do best!
