Pakistan has long been a moderately strong team, occasionally verging on brilliance. Amongst many cricket followers, however, the team has a reputation for inconsistent performance, being unbeatable one day and looking decidedly poor the next. Pakistan has produced many excellent bowlers such as Imran Khan, Wasim Akram, Waqar Younis, and Shoaib Akhtar, but fewer top class batsmen. Pakistan's bowlers are known for developing and perfecting the art of reverse swing bowling to a high degree of proficiency.
