Another Pak fast bowler hitting 150,and 18 years to boot.Watson reckons that Pakistan has been producing more fast bowlers than most of the test playing countries.Why in a country where the pitches are not conducive to fast bowling,they keep producing.Mohammed Hasnain is one who is stinging batsmen with his pace.

Mikey was probably joking but Pak culture within their Central Asians peoples, as opposed to Pakistan's South Asian peoples, are warrior type- the Pathans, The Tajiks etc- fast aggressive bowling is a natural outcome and is seen as an honorable and sacred thing.


If you notice, none of Pakistan's great fast bowlers were of South Asian decent- they were and are all more Central Aisan decent. Waqar is probably the only mixed South Asian bowler, all others from Imran, Safraz Namaz, Shoaib were all Central Asian decent.
