Every single Pakistani and Australian journalist and blogger have written on why in the world would Afridi do such a stupidity.. calling him  a plain idiot to asking what the hell if at all he was thinking. It is indeed mind boggling and would remain in memory as such till the day he plays cricket. Here are our top ten real reasons of why Shahid Afridi started biting the ball (read eating) as the match got closer to finish…

10 ) Apples are good for health.

9 ) Was checking to see if the Australians had bitten it.

10 ) Sender- Ponting; Thank you, mate!

9 ) Sender- Younis; I told you so… now go figure this

8 ) Sender- Hussey; $3,000 AU in Akmal’s account, do I need to sms him or would you let him know.

7 ) Sender – Misbah; Don’t believe whatever they tell you, I swear I can see the ball.

6 ) Sender-Kamran Akmal; this is my third message in last 6 days. Please investigate someone drilled holes in my gloves again’.

5 ) Sender – Waqar Younis; Idiot, I suggested that “spread the players” drill for the fielding and catching practice session before the game, not in the game L

4 ) Sender- Zaheer Abbas; Thanks for replacing my name from the list of ‘worst captains to ever lead Pakistan’.

Honestly…. I am sure none of you actually believed with any level of confidence at any point through the last six days that this Pakistani “herd” is good for anything. I am sorry but I can’t use the word “Team” as it is reserved and defined by multiple dictionaries for a group of people working towards a common goal. A good team is said to be one where the whole of the team is greater than the sum of its parts. Need I say more? This is as close as any time the Aussies allow opponents to come close to beating them at their home grounds … those who dare, plan and have finesse… do it…

Yousuf’s captaincy not lacking anything because there wasn’t anything to begin with to lack. Yousuf needed to show some anger (from Imran Khan’s book of captaincy) and bully the boys to do the jobs they have been hired by the rest of the nation (they are all on central contracts and yes there paid from mine and your tax money) to do.

I am very upset. And, the reason quite simple – Younis Khan’s resignation. I mean what it is with PCB? Are they insane?

I mean how can they blame him – just merely on Indian media’s assumptions?

After all, isn’t he our national hero? For the past few months I have witnessed a remarkable uplift in our cricket team’s morale and of course, their performance, and much of this is due to tireless efforts of the man himself – Younis Khan.

It isn’t fair that to blame the man, just because the media on the other side of the border is basing their assumptions on heresy.  And, all this, I believe, is that since their own national team performed so badly against our heroes that they have dropped down to such depths as to promote negative news about our team.

10) Sender- Gary Kirsten;  I only said no fielders between third-man and deep point in the first 5 overs but after that?

9)  Sender- Umar Gul;  Dhoni bhai I tried to help but I only had few overs, I am sure you would understand.

8 ) Sender- Raina;  Did we not take care of both umpires before the game?

7) Sender- Tendulkar; Did I get out too soon? you haven’t talked to me for last three days.

6) Sender-Father ;  some people are here they say they are your fans and say they will stay till you arrive.

5) Sender -Shoaib Malik; you don’t think I batted too long did you? I was just enjoying your company at the crease.
