After the victory against West Indies, Indian skipper Dhoni said, “Now we have proved that we have an all-round batting line up. There was a lot of talk about us collapsing every time Sachin scores a 100. Now, we have proved that our batting line-up is capable of squandering the initiative no matter who scores a hundred.”
Meanwhile, on Saturday, a spat broke-out between Ricky Ponting and Kamran Akmal. After the match, an angry Akmal told Ponting, “People have been creating a lot of fuss about all the catches I’ve been dropping. Finally, I manage to cling on to one and you don’t walk even when you’ve smashed the leather out of the ball. Ricky, show some spirit and support struggling fellow cricketers.”
A visibly-irritated Ricky Ponting came out with an immediate response. He told Akmal, “Mate! You can drop another 100 catches and you will still be the wicket-keeper in this Pakistan side. But another couple of failures, and I will be booted out of the team by our blood-thirsty selectors. So now who is the struggling cricketer?”
It has been learned that even after 2 days of heated discussions, neither player was able to prove that he is the worst cricketer in this World cup so far. Talk about healthy competition!!
