The Land of Pure Stupidity
Just recently Pakistan was thrashed by the Australian cricket team: 3-0. A writer for Cricinfo provides scathing commentary on the matter:
This series, in the eyes of evolution, has been man grappling ape, mobile phones battling message-carrying pigeons. Australia, even this lessened, beatable Australia, has been at least a civilization ahead of Pakistan. There is not a cricket-playing country in the world as backward and as resistant to not just modernity but simple, natural progression as Pakistan.
Ouch. The rest is blistering as well.

Comments
This is fourth straight series whitewash.
3-0 in 1999
3-0 in 2002
3-0 in 2004
3-0 in 2010
That makes 12 defeats in a row, the longest losing streak in the history of test cricket.
