Umar Akmal R.I.P English After Devastating Defeat From India!

Come on!!
English is not his 1st language.

I do remember a joke. Pakistani ex test cricketer Azhar Mehmood when on peak of his short career started learning English to avoid any sort of communication barrier whenever declared Man of the match. Once he found his fluency, he got himself outa nick in such a pathetic way...that selectors never considered him to be the part of the national team again...!! :lol: At the end his hard work paid off when he got his British Nationality...!!
 
Nothing comes close to this , specially RR reaction at 1.15


however there are some really exceptional english commentators from pakistan like rameez raja & wasim akram
 
Well,nor his fault as English isn't his first language.It would have been fine as well if he stuck to Urdu.
 
If you don't know English, no problemo, but why even try to speak it in front of international audience? :D
Impression jamane ke liye,most people believe even speaking a few words in English will establish them as something better.It's another matter that the opposite usually happens due to their lack of proficiency.:D
 
Let the journalist hire a translator

Japanese / Chinese / Spanish / Italian / Russians all speak their native languages and don't try to speak English

We need to forget about English specially for sportsmen

Not sure why Pakistani board not enforce , necessary translators to company Pakistani cricketers so they can express their ideas freely in Urdu language
 
Let the journalist hire a translator
The translator was already there helping Umar Akmal "understand" the question. Funny part, he actually tried to answer a question in English which he couldn't understand in the same language without interpreter's intervention :D
