Why are Inzamam-ul Haq and Shoaib Akhtar at loggerheads all the time?
I would not say that. Shoaib has a few problems. He is a match-winning bowler, but there are times when he goes off the field saying he is injured. He did so in Australia. Inzamam is a fine player, with great temperament. He has been able to handle Shoaib Akhtar very well, both on and off the field. Shoaib allows his injuries to be seen as more important than what they are. Team spirit demands that he (Shoaib) should stay on the field even if he is not bowling. Then he should field. He has superstar qualities but he would be missing in the one-day matches in India. But all great bowlers and batsmen are arrogant. I do not think this is true. We have the fine example of Colin Cowdrey, who, despite being one of the most successful batsmen, did not have an iota of arrogance. We had the great Garfield Sobers. There are many others. Inzy has shown his worth, but the man is very modest. It is a question of your own attitude. Also Read Woolmer calls on Shaharyar Khan PCB chief censures Shoaib
