Mysteryman and rest of indian fans, congratulations! I never meant to undermine the indian batting. Historically if you look between the two sides, its always been the battle between the bowling (pakistan) and batting (india). It is good that now you have another batsman or two to rely on besides T. :) Now coming back to the fear factor, Afridi by no means is a world class batsman. His hit or miss approach can undo him at anytime. But its this very mercurial temperament that he gets away often with india is so exciting keeping the bowlers guessing that they'll get him the next ball :P. Four sixes in a row..try hitting one bro! Everyone is entitled to their opinion..good luck to you :) would have been better if we got to see the matches. However, for those of you who are bringing the element of religion in sports for the sake of an argument. SHAME ON YOU!
