Random Pakistan Cricket Fact #10

In the 2003 World Cup, Shoaib Akhtar had the highest batting average of all Pakistani players (72.00), while Saeed Anwar had the highest bowling average (15.00).

Yep, it's true - just another piece of evidence for Pakistan's disastrous performance. Shoaib Akhtar's average was boosted by his short, explosive innings against England, and a few not-outs. Saeed Anwar bagged one wicket when he was asked to bowl a few overs inconsequential against Netherlands (same match in which Wasim Akram got his 500th wicket).

Here's a link to the stats.
