Beware of Pak : Srinath




The veteran Indian pace bowler, sounded a warning to all about the dangerous Paki side.They have a tendency to implode, but then they can explode at any time ! As far as reverse swing is concerned, Pakis are the masters. They had perfected this art.

Today they move against Kenya. Even though they are under immense pressure, they can overcome that at any moment.

Pressure on Pak, as three of their main players are banned. Amir and Asif are incredible talent, says Imran. ( Imran also said they deserved their punishment).

If unpredictability is the hallmark of the Paki side, even this match becomes crucial. Remember yesterday's match, when the Netherlands, inspired by Tendo, almost beat England.

Meanwhile, Ireland feels that the new ICC decision for a 10 nation format, will hurt Ireland's chances. She had recently applied for Test status.

According to Srinath, Pak is one of the contenders of the Cup. Fast bowling is their forte. Umar Gul is the leader of their attack. Gul and others give priority to reverse swing. This is the best method of bowling on the subcontinental tracks. There is no other team who can reverse swing the ball like the Pakis.

A powerful batting line up, with Misbah and Y Khan and a good lower order with Afridi, Razzak and Umar Akmal etc can create good scores and with their fast bowling, they can be a threat to any opposition ! The very fact that they are playing on Sri Lankan pitches only strengthens them ! Afridi, Gul and Razzak are game changers !
