One match does not qualify you to cast aspersions on any individual, do you judge yourself so harshly? if yes, and you set very high standards for yourself in life, then i take back whatever i said in the previous post! Otherwise, never expect others to be or do what you can't be or are incapable of. This applies to every individual in this forum and not just to you! It is unlikely that all people in this forum are top of the line in whatever they do, yet they expect only the very best from our cricketers all the time! don't you think it is a bit unfair? Coming back to Pathan, remember that the WC has a preliminary round in addition to warmup matches. Rest assured that Pathan is conserving himself for the big ones! Also, with Pathan in the team, we would be able to go with two spinners in the team. Zaheer, Agarkar/Munaf, Pathan, Harbhajan and Kumble, this bowling lineup wqould be required if you want to stuff the aussies or the SA guys!! Without Pathan, you cannot go with two spinners which then takes out the advantage we may enjoy over Aus or SA who are weak against quality spin bowling. With two spinners in the team, we will be favourites to beat England, NZ, SA and aus in the super 8. Forget what i said in the previous post!
