9. 20th Anniversary of 1992 World Cup victory.



The 25th of March 2012 should be marked as a special occasion to rejoice the 20th anniversary of the Pakistan cricket team’ 1992 World Cup triumph, the first ever any international world cricket title in history. However, it is pity neither in any print or electronic media nor in the PCB the anniversary is being remembered. Yes, on some social media pages it is twitted, that’s a good sign and shows the sincerity of sports fans.

To say something about the triumph and event is useless as already so much written and memorized. But on this special occasion, I try to select the best ever Pakistan cricket eleven for the One day cricket, to mark the celebrations. The list of players definitely needs your comments to offer some food for thought to the PCB.

Here is my team;

1.      Majid Khan,                   perhaps the best opener to play fast bowling
2.      Saeed Anwer,                 no comparison, offer left-right hand pairing
3.      Muhammad Yousuf,      a touch of class & elegance for 1-down slot
4.      Javed Miandad,             best ever Pakistan batsman, automatic choice
5.      Inzamam ul Haq,            a blend of power and style, a batting maestro    
6.      Imran Khan,                   universal choice and need no introduction
7.      Shahid Afridi,                  a crowd puller and game-changer
8.      Moin Khan,                     has edge of batting over Rashid and Bari
9.      Wasim Akram,                the best left-arm fast bowler of world
10.  Waqar Younus,               pace & lethal, suitable for 1st bowling change
11.  Saqlain Mushtaq,           the inventor of “doosra” don’t give 2nd thought
