Afridi Bites Back

Shahid Afridi is a master tactician. Afridi has been coveting the captaincy ever since Azhar Mahmood was lifted over the midwicket boundary for six by Trent Johnston. Ironically, Afridi wasn't playing on that ill fated day against the Irish because he was banned after an altercation against a fan in South Africa. The less said about his most recent transgression the better. I've never seen someone bite a cricket ball with so much anger, or was it passion. It's interesting, Mohammad Yousuf cared so little about winning that he embellished the performance of our cornered tigers by saying "Australia are the world's best, what did you expect.. I think we are playing good cricket." On the other hand Shahid Bhai was so desperate to win a game of cricket that he was willing to put his fangs into a cricket ball. Would you rather have a captain who bows down to Lord Ponting or a captain so desperate to win that he's willing to look like a hungry Lycan?
