The mayhem of an India-Pakistan game

On the day of every match, for countrymen on either side, along with the cricketers, history, culture, war, and geopolitics also walk out to the middle. It is a completely unfair notion but has stoked a six-decade rivalry

Battle of two inconsistent batting line-ups

The batting line-ups of both teams have been inconsistent, but Pakistan's better bowling attack gives them the edge

22-Mar-2011•Madhusudhan Ramakrishnan

Pakistan's bowling variety allows extra batsman

With the kind of choice he has, each bowling change Shahid Afridi makes has ensured that batsmen are unable to fall into the kind of rhythm they thrive on. On the pitches of the subcontinent, that is often a winning ploy

22-Mar-2011•Osman Samiuddin in Mirpur

A game to savour and forget

All Pakistan's bowlers played their role, the fielding was as good as it has been in a long time, and two young batsmen played maturely; yet by the next game, their win against Australia could mean nothing

'People get tired of me, but I have to keep going'

A year into his job as Pakistan coach, Waqar Younis is still standing. He has applied himself to the task of keeping one of cricket's historically most fractious teams going and has done better than most would give him credit for
