I missed this part of "solid answers".

Who's asking questions here? What questions are those?

Is he still in retribution mode. After a loss. Living in self-denial.

Saqlain Mushtaq speaking during an interview on a TV show:

“If we keep political things aside, their players are outstanding and they have been playing good cricket."

“If you are a good team, I think let’s play 10 Tests, 10 ODIs and 10 T20Is against Pakistan, then everything would become clear."

“If we get our preparation right and sort out things in the right direction, then we will be in a situation where we can give solid answers to the world and India as well,"

I think he is justifying why India has not granted VISA to him.
 
So Saqlain the last bit of pride we have - H2H in ODIs / Tests should also finish.

If we play 10 tests vs India we will lose all 10.

If we play 10 ODIs vs India we will lose 9.

We have become that pathetic!

What a senseless suggestion by Saqlain! He really has gone senile.

These 2 teams are hard pressed to play 1-2 games in years and this guy is asking them to play 30 games!
 
Anyone close to Saqi bhai better check on him bro. Is he alright?

Bhai we love you still.

GOAT ODI spinner bro
 
Hard to speak against my fav childhood spinner but hopefully he becomes a better coach than analyst.
 
Mr. Saqlain says, "If you're a good team, I think let's play 10 Tests, 10 ODIs, and 10 T20Is against Pakistan, and then everything would become clear." While the Tests and T20s might be a bit up for debate, here’s a comparison of the last 10 ODIs between Pakistan and India, just in case we’re looking for some clarity:
  • CT 2013: India won by 8 wickets.
  • Asia Cup 2014: India won by just 1 wicket in the last over.
  • 2015 WC (Adelaide): India won by 76 runs.
  • 2017 CT (League Game): India won by 124 runs.
  • 2017 CT (Final): India lost by 180 runs
  • 2018 Asia Cup (Dubai): India won by 8 wickets (in the 40th over).
  • 2018 Asia Cup (Dubai): India won by 9 wickets (in the 40th over).
  • 2019 WC (Manchester): India won by 89 runs (the result was practically decided by the 25th over).
  • 2023 Asia Cup (SL): No result due to rain.
  • 2023 Asia Cup (SL): India won by 228 runs (Pakistan scored 128).
  • 2023 WC: India won by 7 wickets in 31 overs (Pakistan scored 192).
  • CT 2025: India won by 6 wickets in the 43rd over, chasing 241.

Based on this little collection of results, one might say the pattern seems pretty clear already on how a 10 match ODI series will go

Yograj Singh speaking in reply to Saqlain Mushtaq's comments, during an interview:

"I read Saqlain's comment. What are you trying to get into? They don't know how to appreciate it. They just speak. So, a lot of mouths were shut. They haven't learned in 78 years. What can I teach them? People who keep berating their players, what can you teach them?”

"They should learn how to run a country from India and its government. It feels like India is playing a local team. They should try to play against our 'B' team."

There is no debate with T20 as well. Despite the format being a lottery, Pakistan has only managed to win 3 out of 13 T20I games against India. So if we managed to play 10 games, India should win 7-8 games. The only format untested is Tests. India is on a rebuilding phase in the format which makes it little closer. I would still back India to win 6-7 out of 10 Tests.

It's happens brother because inzaman & saqlain used to win a lot of matches against us during their playing time as they were the superior side, but time has changed now pakistan is the joke of international cricket, India keeps on winning tournaments, the gulf is getting bigger between us now, the trophy count has reached - 7-3, India in the ascending pakistan in descending, they may compete in t20s but in test & odis they will struggle for years, these things may have disturbed them, at the end of the day they are humans too.

We need to concentrate just on winning matches only and forget about playing immature childish and petty vendetta filled revenge games vs India!!

With Abhishek Sharma, Tilak Varma, Jaiswal, Rinku, Riyan Parag, Nitish Reddy, Dubey, Pandya, SKY, Varun, Kuldeep, Bumrah in team for next T20 encounter in Asia cup, I guess India have a chance to extend that margin

Nope he doesn't.... even Wasim , Waqar and the host Fakr-e-Alam agreed with Sunny in the DP World program where he made that statement.

Inzi is just unable to come to terms with the harsh reality that Pakistan will get owned by even 2nd or 3rd choice Indian players and therefore resorting to bile and fake bravado because past history has nothing to do with current situation where Pakistan has lost vast majority of the big matches vs India in recent past. You guys can do whatever gymnastics to hide that but that is the reality.

So what Inzi is resorting to Is called "Impotent rage" after realizing that his team is firing blanks lol

This is the most horrible argument. Are you guys even aware that WI still has a 71-63 record against Pakistan in ODIs? Can we say that WI is a better team than Pakistan based on the historic record? The question is how the teams are faring currently and not how they used to play. Pakistan are still maintaining that lead is because of 2 reasons, first India were so poor in 80's and 90's and second both teams don't play bi-laterals anymore.

Because WI also have more ICC trophies than Pak, yes. Here you have a few more ICC trophies/Asia Cups than us but we have an overwhelmingly dominant H2h record of 73-58 in ODIs and 88-77 all formats. Nice excuse but last bilateral series we went to India and beat them as they could only manage a dead rubber win.

Come on Inzy and Saqi. That was a joke. 🤦🏻

Inzy took offense to Wasim as well in the past for joking about his run outs.

Too serious bro

I blame the media persons who are sitting there and probably understand sarcasm and jokes better than these cricketers, it’s their job to tell them that it’s not a big deal rather than giving air to fire and driving them crazy like that. If Harsha was sitting there he wouldn’t have let this got so serious.

They never won any world cup or CT match against India, what are you talking about? Which is same as current team, the current team doesn't have bilaterals.
 
Both ( Inzy and Saqlain) the ex player were crying about india during the whole champion Trophy .every day they find new conspiracy theories to discuss instead talking about matches. Pathetic mentality

Inzi beat India in the 2004 CT. During the 90s I am not sure if CT matches were played between Pak and India.
The only WC that mattered during the 90s was the QF 96 which India won. The other 2 meaning 92 and 99 did not have any impact on Pak. 92 WC was won and 99 WC Pak reached finals. Losing those 2 games didn't mean much. On the other hand India was terrible in both WCs 92/99

Point is Pak was a much better team compared to India during the 90s. Even winning 2 TEST matches on the same trip.

They cannot fathom how non-muslims can win so consistently. Inzi even criticised Shami for drinking water during Roza team.

He did because there is much more to inzi's "runouts". Somethings for inzi are better not talked about.

Check out justice qayuum's conviction on inzi's side hustle. On pakistan's expense.

I am not criticising any Pakistan player for his religion. But ex-Pakistan cricketers like Inzi have a chip on there shoulder for this reason especially against Indians.
 
Pakistan needs to understand that India doesn't consider them as rivals in cricket anymore, defeating them is like a stroll in a park for us.

Saqlain needs to help Pakistan win something, atleast an Asia cup, so that big teams pay some attention to them.

Please stop this. So you are accepting that you are an inferior team to WI due to your historic head to head? It does not work that way. India would have bridged the gap and may have even equaled if we were playing regular bi-laterals with Pakistan. The only record which matters is Pakistan is yet to win a ODI against India since 2017. They have lost 6-7 in a row to India. The record of 73-58 does not matter and it will take decades for India to overtake as we only play one ODI in 2 years or so. West Indies still maintain a positive W/L against India but they haven't beaten India in a series for 23 years. So shall we say they are a better Test team than India? It does not matter that Pakistan hold a head to head advantage. They still have that because the teams don't play too often. Does not mean anything and it both the teams play now 9 times out of 10 India will beat Pakistan comfortably.

Not just comfortably but quite brutally .... ludicrous that there are still posters who think otherwise ( although that number has drastically reduced now lol ) .... I mean just the other day a completely washed up 36 year old Kohli made a easy hundred against the 1st choice Pak bowling !!

Imagine would would have happened if they played Bilateral cricket in the last 12 yrs they would have had to deal with a peak Rohit, Kohli, Dhawan, Bumrah, Kuldeep, Ash, Jadeja, Hardik etc etc ...

Pak posters should actually be grateful to their military masters for adopting a hostile stance against the Dushman mulk which has resulted in the stoppage of cricket otherwise the story would have been utterly humiliating as witnessed as recently as 3 weeks ago.

Are you dense? We are not cherry picking years here. In totality since inception Pak lead head to head vs India. Whether you place more importance to that or trophies is up to you. I will.be fair and say India have pulled a lot of ground back with their additional WC win and the recent 2 ICC trophies. That doesn't mean Pakistan don't still have the edge in h2h.

What does that mean from your own Cricketing assessment ? Are you going to claim Pak > India since 1947 in Cricket ?
 
SA vs Aus H2H in ODI reads: SA (56) vs Aus (51). However, That doesn't hv any sort of significance in 2025. Aus hv 10 ICC titles under the belt while SA hv just 1. Similar comparison between Ind and Pak on H2H in ODI sounds quite dumb/illogical. Having said that, if it makes someone feel good/satisfied, so be it.

Despite a better H2H no will claim SA is better than Aus. Tournament performance is all that matters. Very well said 👏🏻
 
Pak were on top and performing well when there were no strict international rules on ball tampering, performance enhancing drugs..etc..Pakistan players are known offenders whose bowlers constantly tampered the balls in order to get swing..And they used drugs and steroids to generate speed..Once the international rules became strict, Pak is not able to produce a single genuine fast bowlers and ultimately started to decline..it's a fraud team and its legends are overrated

Pakistani bowling just hasn't been the same since cameras now catch every movement. In the 80s and 90s every random Pakistani bowler used to look threatening. No tampering and no chucking has left them vulnerable.

Everyone cheated and still cheats. Including injians, wesinjians, white boyz et al. This is a dirty sport. Like all others.

Main differences for pakistan bowlers then vs. now are in physique and flair. Back then we had taller, well-built, good-lookin, sharabi-womanizers. With enough dugs in their veins they did wonders on and off the field.

These days they do sajdas/blow kisses at 35-0-250-5.

Yes, because PCT is the only team in history to be caught/punished for ball tampering and other offences. All other teams playing Int cricket never have been caught or fined, right?
