The national cricket team of Pakistan is represented by the Pakistani Cricket Team. This team is administrated by the Pakistan Cricket Board. Pakistan is a complete member of the International Cricket Council with Test and one-day international status. Here is a list of the Pakistan team players along with their individual profiles.

Pakistan team's 'never say die' attitude and its boundless pool of talents from where it seems to fish out match winners every year are two out of the many reasons for its formidable reputation in the world. The rest of the reasons descend on the opposing teams along with a hollow experience of defeat.

Pakistan is a team where new players evolve from nowhere. Pakistan team experienced its moment of glory in the World Cup when it beat England in the final of World Cup 1992. This was Pakistan's first triumph in the World Cup and its only one so far. Pakistan team has played a total 53 matches in the World Cup so far, with 29 wins and 22 losses.The 2007 Cricket World Cup was one of the biggest upsets in World Cup history when Pakistan was knocked out of the competition in a shock defeat to Ireland, who were playing in their first competition.





Pakistan has many potential match-winners, each one capable of taking the attack to the opponents.Unpredictable and chaotic.Shahid Afridi ,the captain and Abdul Razzaq offer experience and 19 -year-old batsman Ahamed Shehzad the raw talent. The fastest bowler in the world, Shoaib Akhtar can make merry under the favorable conditions of the Caribbean- provided .




Pakistan left for a tour of England in June 2007 following a solid performance in the tour of Sri Lanka, where it claimed victory in both test series and one-day internationals. In England, the controversial test series may have ended in England's favor, but the Pakistanis were impressive in the ODIs.Last time they went out at the group stage after dwfeats by West Indies. The ball tampering controversy, which no doubt caused lot of anguish to the Pakistanis, might work in their favor since the incident has pricked their pride and the World Cup 2011 may work as an ideal salve.

Pakistan will enter the 2011 World Cup as one of the strongest competitors. It is one team that Australians are quite confessedly wary of. Pakistan's youngsters are learning the ropes of international cricket quickly and they know that things cannot get bigger than the World Cup. This team should bring surprises in 2011 world cup.
