    Fast bowling as Ehtalam.
    Edit: could you at least check the episode for a few minutes before you upload it? Latest one has got a constant echo. If you grew up as a cricket obsessive in Pakistan or were a big fan across the Wagah? Do you answer, ‘the dying gods of test cricket’ when asked of your faith? Then this podcast will give another life to your memories of watching Waqar (and his left arm god partner). Do you still ache in your soul for the Asif wickets that never materialised? Does the poetry of Neruda, Lorca, and Larkin sink into the melancholy of these memories? Well, except for the last one this is the communal Ehtalam for you. Or podcasts, if you will. Messrs Samiuddin & Naqvi will take you on a ride that will remind you what it was like watching a menacing Waqar race in. Or Asif indulging in yo-yo trickery with the ball. Or remind you why you should just forgive left arm god for his left arm fix. One minor request: More technical chat and more test cricket spells would be appreciated.

    Awesome, entertaining, full of information, excellent story telling!
    Both Osman and Ahmer discuss the subjects like fans and experts at the same time. The small details and the story behind the story are very entertaining and informative. Big fan of both of them!
