Former Paceman Imran Khan says that Pakistan's pace bowlers hold the key to victory in the forthcoming series against India. Imran claimed: "It's pace which can earn Pakistan a win in India, not spin,".
According to him, The world's best spinner, Shane Warne has been a failure in India. Indian batsman are very strong against spin, so we must depend on fast bowlers.
And he concluded: "I would like to see Shoaib Akhtar and Mohammad Sami firing on all cylinders and hitting the deck right through their target." The problem is, Pakistan's first-choice new-ball pairing are both sidelined at the moment. Shoaib returned home early from the tour of Australia to have a leg injury checked out - and also faced questions about his attitude - while Sami also suffered a foot injury in Australia.
Imran, has been critical of the current Pakistan captain Inzamam-ul-Haq, who missed the end of the Australian series with injuries of his own. Imran said: "I criticised Inzamam for not playing the two Tests in Australia, because for me it was strange for a batsman to sit out, and now he needs to inspire the team from the front."
Let us see will Pakistani pacers achieve win against their Arch Rivals in India?
