I was surfing youtube when I came across this video. ‘Lahoo ko garma dia is video ne’. A collection of Pakistan’s legendary fast bowling duo, Wasim Akram and Waqar Younis. The real video starts around time stamp of 35s, so don’t give up without watching the whole thing. If you want to share other other Wasim-Waqar clips, feel free to do so in the comments section below.
Dear Readers,
While All Things Pakistan has remained alive and online, it has been dormant since June 11, 2011 - when, on the blog's 5th anniversary, we decided that it was time to move on. We have been heartened by your messages and the fact that a steady traffic has continued to enjoy the archived content on ATP. While the blog itself will remain dormant, we are now beginning to add occasional (but infrequent) new material by the original authors of the blog, mostly to archive what they may now publish elsewhere. We will also be updating older posts to make sure that new readers who stumble onto this site still find it useful.
We hope you will continue to find ATP a useful venue to reflect upon and express your Pakistaniat. - Editors

I am the biggest fan of their bowling , more so of Waqar’s.
There was never and probably will never be another bowling attack like the great Wasim and Waqar!
Wasim and Waqar were the best bowling combination the world has seen. I will rate Wasim slightly better because he was more consistent and could bowl his deadly yorkers at will. He was my favorite bowler even though I am an Indian (of course, I used to always pray for an Indian victory!) and boy it was a delight to see him bowl. More than that, he is a wonderful human being as well. He will remain a huge inspiration to all cricket loving young kids around the world!
Wasim was a better bowler than Waqar but the peak once Waqar had nobody in including Wasim could come closer to him.
Thanks for sharing this Owais. This is absolutely the best bowling the world of cricket has ever produced. I grew up in the time of the two W’s where it was pretty much guaranteed that Pakistan will win any match where we batted first and were able to put 150+ runs on the scoreboard.
Good old days!!!
