Another bad day in the office for Kamran Akmal dropping a sitter of a catch and a sitter of stumping. What do you say he is the worst of the keepers in business? Even average keepers like Prior don't miss such sitters!! Cheers! Ram

Yeah he is the worst keeper that Pakistan has ever produced. Moin Khan was best keeper which Pakistan had before Kamran Akmal came. I think he should speak up with some experts, because Naseer Hussain pointed out lot of mistakes in Akmal Technic when he was commenting in Star cricket channel, showing the visuals about his standing up behind the wicket,etc. He should see the visuals of his keeping and correct his mistakes, if not he will lose his place in team.

I think he should be rested for some time and asked to perfect his keeping skills. I am not sure whether there is so much shortage in Pakistan for wicket keepers that they continue to play Kamran Akmal!! Cheers! Ram

ya he not good every time. but he plays with bat in some important time. so cant rate him out of team. he should be given more training or coaching.

Yes, you can live with one batsmen short, but not with one keeper short :) Cheers! Ram

I would love to answer you mate but I don't understand. What is a sitter of a catch? And a sitter of stumping?

It is a chance that someone should be able to take with eyes closed. Very easy chances. Cheers! Ram

I wonder why the Pakistanis are still persisting with Kamran Akmal. He is undoubtadely the worst wicket keeper in the business today.Maybe, there is something other than cricket in this thing.

Exactly my thoughts. They are wasting such a fantastic bowling unit due to the lousy wicket keeper!! Cheers! Ram

It is very difficult to stand behind the stumps especially in the test matches, thats why a keeper like Kumar sangakkara is also not keeping in the test matches. I think Kamran akmal is practicing a lot on his batting rather than keeping. Missing out on a opportunity like stumping is just a sloppy cricket........

And this is not the first time he has done. Remember the test match in Australia when he grassed 6 chances!! Cheers! Ram

It does happen...so times you are too good and sometimes bad. Life is like a goalkeeper...all will speak of the goal you left but not the ones that you saved. So is it with kamran. His mind must be pre occupied with something to do such grave errors.

Yes, but this year he has been consistent in this. When Pak visited Australia in a single match he grassed 6 catches!! Cheers! Ram
