Moin was,is a great player. And I think that Kamran Akmal is following his footsteps. He appeals a lot and yells like Moin and even hurrys the players. Now for Dhoni he is very quiet. I dont know why and even when its time to appeal he appeals, but very quetily. Well lets see how the series goes and the player that has the best series wins this thered. When I say series average and catches by both players and ovrall performance..

Can you really base it upon catches taken?...would be better to do it upon the % of catches taken as this would be more fairer? E.g. Akmal takes 1/1 catch...100% catch rate.... Dhoni takes 3/5...this is only a 60% rate... However 3 catches to Dhoni rather than Akmal's 1 would make Dhoni look like the better keeper although Dhoni dropped some.

Akmal > Dhoni!

Both of these players are more or less equal but I'd say Akmal has a slight edge over Dhoni, thanks to the formers varied experience. Dhoni hasnt really played outside Asia yet. And when the name of Moin has come up, I'd like to know whom do you think was the better Keeper- Moin Khan or Rashid Latif? Moin surely was the better batsman...

Thumbs up Nice point Doink

Nice point Doink. Lets see how Dhoni handles teams outside of Asia. Like the upcoming tour of England. I think it will be hard for Dhoni because of the weather and all that. Its a very new enviorment for Dhoni. Now Akmal has experince. He has oppend against AUSTRALIA wow. And has made a century against West Indies in Australia. Lets see how Dhoni will play aganst Englnd it will be a good series.
