OMG!The ball just bounced from the good length and smacked his face.On a typical subcontinent wicket the ball would not even threaten to hit the batsman's groin.Inevitably WACA has lost its glory and viewers have to contend with the bland era of cricket these days.

As a Muslim 4rm Pakistan I will say with ease that Shoaib Akhtar is no where near the fastest bowler in the world ever.

@atheisticsoul Kerry Packer implemented the white ball/colour clothing during the 70s for his World Series revolution. It didn't feature in a World Cup until it was played in Australia/New Zealand in 1992.

The Windies gave Australia back what they received from Lillie & Thomson in 1975. The only difference was that the Windies did in quadruple!!

Now thats seriously quick!!
Was cricket played with white ball before 1983 world cup? If it was played then why was the white ball not used in 1983 world cup?

@atheisticsoul Only day night matches used white balls back then. and only Australia had lights so white balls were only used in Australia.

@ravishingravi If only Shaun Tait showed the same courage, I just read he retired from One Day Cricket today, that is weak. Im a bit pissed off now. All our good bowlers dont play test cricket!

@robelinda2 I don't think Tat is a good bowler. I am not sure when he releases it, he knows where it is going. I would say Bollinger and Harris have been more impressive than him or Johnson.
