What a difference it is, to see a young, cheerful, smiling face at the helm of Pakistani cricket. In an interview, Shoaib Malik spoke of his desire to emulate Wasim Akram as a cricket captain, and follow his aggressive approach to cricket.Shoaib could do far worse than follow Wasim, who had a 60% winning percentage in ODIs, and won more test matches than he lost or drew. It probably speaks to Shoaib's appreciation of Wasim's cricketing skills that Mr. Grand Poobah himself, Nasim Ashraf if you didn't know, has asked Wasim Akram to help out the Pakistani fast bowling ranks with a few coaching sessions. Here is to hoping that Wasim gets treated better than Waqar. And for all of those upset with Wasim for helping out the Indian bowlers before he helped out the Pakistani bowlers, well all you had to do was ask.
