ALL commendations to the ‘Blitz Krieg’ bowling of Junaid Khan which broke the back of the Indian innings and laid the foundations of Pakistan’s fabulous win at Chennai on Dec 30.

I think Hollywood should take notice of Junaid who, apart from being as tall as Gregory Peck, looks like the great actor in his younger days —  Gregory went in all guns blazing in his epic movie — ‘The Guns of Navarone’ as did Junaid — ‘all guns blazing’ in Chennai.
