Rameez Raja is a lucky guy, he has an excellent job and there is no doubt of the fact that he really isnt qualified for it.

Guess it helps to have a powerful dad and family to get by with minimal talent in any walk of life in Pakistan.................

Salam...is there a Pakistani summariser on TMS? If not...surely that's a first? All touring teams have at least one. Even Bangla from what I recall!
 
Rameez getting his stats wrong
15 captains in the last 5 years?
Afridi's first century in ten years?
What is this guy on?

Yep, he looks great in the whites. A proud day for Afridi, captain of the test team at Lords, the home of cricket.

Surely he will bowl first?
 
Cheap Ten sports isn't showing the toss. They're showing the highlights of the first T20 against Aus instead
 
You'd think in these conditions the toss would be crucial. Afridi has just pulled on his blazer and, about 15 times, run his hands through his hair. He looks the part. Here's something from Andrew Miller. "Both teams are in huddles with applause ringing out, so I suspect we can expect debuts on both sides." Could be Umar Amin and Azhar Ali for Pakistan, if they are stuck in in these conditions it would be quite an introduction to Test cricket.
 
haha,

"Just one spinner for you Shahid? Danish?"

Afridi: "What do you think? I'm not one?"
 
Your Playing with one spinner
Afridi: What you think im not
Lol hahahahahah
 
Azhar Ali & Umar Amin come in for their debuts

2 debutants for Aus
 
The interviewer asks afridi ' you're going in with only 1 spinner' and lala respond 'what do you think i'm not a spinner' :))

True. Lets forfeit the match, bring back memories of time immemorial :inzi

This is going to be fun. Mohammad Asif running in under overcast conditions with that new Duke cherry.
 
Afridi's Test captaincy has started ideally. Pakistan have won the toss and will bowl. Umar Amin and Azhar Ali do indeed come into the side for the first time, while Australia have, as expected, given debuts for Tim Paine and Steve Smith.
So the teams look like this:
Pakistan 1 Imran Farhat, 2 Salman Butt, 3 Azhar Ali, 4 Umar Amin, 5 Umar Akmal, 6 Shahid Afridi, 7 Kamran Akmal (wk), 8 Mohammad Aamer, 9 Umar Gul, 10 Danish Kaneria, 11 Mohammad Asif.
Australia 1 Shane Watson, 2 Simon Katich, 3 Ricky Ponting (capt), 4 Michael Clarke, 5 Michael Hussey, 6 Marcus North, 7 Tim Paine (wk), 8 Steven Smith, 9 Mitchell Johnson, 10 Ben Hilfenhaus, 11 Doug Bollinger.
 
Umar Amin and Azhar Ali do indeed come into the side for the first time, while Australia have, as expected, given debuts for Tim Paine and Steve Smith.

we can't even win after bowling them out at 127 :moyo :akmal
 
good decision to bowl first in my view...putting debutants like umar amin and azhar ali in conditions like tht wudnt do great for their confidence...
