It was a disastrous tour of Australia for Pakistan, who did not win a single match. It was somebody's fault and PCB were ready to punish that person. But the lightening took several heads.
It was said that Shoib Malik and Rana Naved-Ul-Hasan will be banned for some time and Shahid Afridi & Akmal Bros. will be fined and put on probation. But the surprise came when two players were banned for life. They are none other than Mohd. Yousuf and Younus Khan.
Malik and Rana have been banned for 1 year, Afridi and Akmal Bros. have been fined Rs. 2-3 million and placed under 6 months probation. Yousuf and Younus have been banned for life.
With so much experience and talent gone and/or under pressure, will Pakistan cricket go down like the West Indies have?
Both teams have many similarities. Both teams have match winners, who can go through any opposition. Both teams have their On-Off relationship with the respective boards. Both teams have been beaten by Australia.
