Pakistan v India, Reflect on the series

Firstly, I am glad that pakistan and india are playing cricket rather than threatening eachother with NUKES and I am very happy the ways the players and fans have handled themselves. Secondly, Pakistan made lot of mistakes with their selction ever since the world cup as they should have asked WASIM AKRAM to captian for just one year and prepare the young all rouder like abul razzaq as captain and shaid afridi as vice captain and I did present my plan of attack to PCB but it seems they are too busy fighting eachother or favouring their friends instead picking the true talent like IMRAN KHAN’S era. However, we cannot turn teh clock backwords but I think they should have abdul razzaq as captain and shahid afridi as a vice captain with experienced inzimam ul haq, moin khan, younis khan, yousaf youhana, saqlain mustaq, shoaib akhtar and waqar younis with some young blood like yasir hameed, shoib malik, mohd sami, danish kuneria, shabir ahmed. Pakistan really need to forget about farhat or taufeeeq or gul or hafiz…… I think pakistan and india should play against eachother every two years just like the ashes against england and australia. Furthermore, I think Pakistan and India should sign a political treaty that let kasmir have their independence and than sign a five nation (pakistan, india, bangaldesh, sri lanka and kashmir) treaty. The treaty should include that they will never fight eachother and one attack should be considered an attack on another and let the west fight some other suckers to fight eachother.

The cricket match series was a great thriller in these past 2 months... Well, it does not matter who wins, but I am sure this series is going to promote feelings of affections and good relations between the two countries, which is really needed at this point of time... Well done both teams !

The series has been brilliant to watch! The supporters in Pakistan need to be congratulated for ensuring that the series went without a problem and making the India team feel so welcome. Hearts were definately won in this series. Congratultaions to India of course! They deserved to win. Can't wait till the next India/Pakistan series! Jai Hind

Dev, Holland

Suresh, USA
What a great series and team effort for India. Three 600+ innings in four test matches going back to Australia! With such depth in batting, and young bowlers like Pathan, Nehra and Balaji coming of age, I can't wait for the Australia series later this year in India.

hats off to india for their wonderful performance. But this series has shown that india pakistan matches have lost their nail biting tentions because indian team is ar more better than pakistan

Kishor Choudhari, India/UK
This series confrims that the Indian team has evolved greatly over last two years, has learnt to be together. Although Pakistan has lost in cricket, Pakistani crowd has won the hearts with their hospitality, appreciation of good cricket and most of all their patience when their beloved team was in great troubles. Also, although inexperience of the Pakistani batting side is exposed, individually they have shown to be very talented players, and will hopefully flourish further in years to come.

Gautam, London
The fact that there was such a poor crowd attendence during the test matches indicated that Pakistan has lost the series well before it was expected.

"You must be insane to believe that England and India are both on par with each other at the moment and that they are strong contenders for number 2 position along with South Africa. England is clearly ahead of the other 2 teams." - Richard Tuvor
