The second day of the First Test Match between South Africa and Australia was a day when wickets went down like prices of Petrol increase in Pakistan. What made the Aussies turn this day into one of the most spectacular one? Get the sarcastic side of one of the most amazing batting collapses in recent times...

The recent Test match between South Africa and Australia at Newlands was mind-boggling. The second day started with the first innings continuing and ended with the fourth innings. A whopping 23 wickets fell on the second day of one of the most bizarre batting collapses by the two teams. 23 WICKETS! That’s almost two and a half innings of test cricket! I wasn’t watching the test match, I was watching Japanese anime and no one dares to disturb me when I’m watching anime. But my dad came and told me, “Ustad, tumhari South Africa to Pakistan ki tarah khel rahi hai”. I thought maybe they’re having a collapse but sooner or later someone would come and get them out of it. When the anime ended, I started another episode, but I decided to have a look on the scorecard. I was shocked to see South Africa bowled out for a mere 96. “Well, that’s another Test in Australia’s pocket!”, I thought and resumed watching the anime. I was tired of Australia winning everything they put their hands on.

Tell us about yourself?

Tabrez Ali Janjua - I am an avid West Ham United fan who still thinks that one day he will be playing for them. I love sport and physical fitness and play football regularly myself every week, and also cricket when the weather permits.

What are the sports that you follow and which one is your real passion?

I follow Football and Cricket mainly, yet do like to watch tennis when Roger Federer is playing, and snooker when Ronnie O’Sullivan is playing. There’s something about witnessing a genius doing what they love and putting what God has blessed them with on show. That’s what attracts me to the likes of Federer and O’Sullivan.

It may come as a surprise, but my real passion is football, both playing and watching. I’m crazy about my local team West Ham United. I do love cricket too but it comes a close second behind football. Both sports test different aspects and are a true pleasure to watch and play.

Pakistan is a nation that produces talents day and night, here are a selected few that will in my opinion go on to break into the full side. here is Pakistan cricket's future. Which include names like Babar Azam, Zain Abbas, Sherjeel Khan, Awais Zia, Usman Salahuddin, Jamal Anwar, Hammad Azam, Mohammad Rameez, Sadaf Hussain & Raza Hussain.

Please give it a read.

Can the lackluster Sri Lankan batsmen step up and put on a better and decent show?

Can Lasith Malinga find his groove and get his deadly yorkers right?

Can Dilshan and company turn the tables around and square the series?

All these questions will be leading up into the 2nd One day International between Sri Lanka and Pakistan to be played in Dubai tomorrow.

After his move from Inter Milan to the Catalan Giants in 2009, Zlatan Ibrahimovic has proved himself the most controversial player of recent times who played for Barcelona. After leaving Barcelona in 2010, he reveals another controversy through his Autobiography, which was published recently.

AC Milan striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic has directed an expletive-ridden outburst at Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola and the Barcelona Boss in his autobiography (JAG AR ZLATAN IBRAHIMOVIC).

Staying on the true side and accepting his bad-boy image in the book, Ibrahimovic also describes a series of controversies with other players and coaches during his career.

A glorious era in cricket journalism comes to an end. A man so dauntless, so perceptive, so full of knowledge and wisdom is no more;,the acclaimed cricket writer Peter Roebuck,55, has been found dead at a hotel in Cape Town, South Africa.

According to one report, Roebuck appeared to be in a disturbed state last night. He was spoken to by police in his room on the sixth floor of the Southern Sun Hotel, Newlands, in Cape Town about 10pm.

 
It is believed police removed personal items from his room. His body was taken to the mortuary in the early hours of the morning.

Roebuck,who scored more than 17,000 first class runs, was instrumental in the departure of West Indians Viv Richards and Joel Garner, as well as England captain Ian Botham, from Somerset during his tempestuous reign as captain in the late 1980s.

It has emerged today that the Pakistan Cricket Boards Chairman, Mr Zaka Ashraf has written to his BCCI counterpart, Mr N Srinivasan and asked to look at a tour in the near future.

Its been reported that he has said it is time the neighbouring nations re-start their cricketing ties.

Mr Ashraf has said Pakistan is willing to tour India and the Indian board and Government should give it a good thought and consideration.

If the request is accepted it will hopefully be the first of many ties between the greatest rivals in the cricketing world.

The true surreal nature of the contest was summed up by Alan Border in commentary remarking that he had batted in an innings longer than this Test had indeed lasted. A game so full of the bizarre and freakish, ended with sanity being restored with South Africa brushing the rust off their 1st innings all round performance. To truly victimise an inept Australia.


If you look at the game honestly, the competitive stages in the game for Australia were propelled by the freakish coupled with the relative rust of a South African Team that hasn't played in near on a year in Test Cricket.


Let us look at the flaws and merits of both.
