You may say they are being philosophical but that is just a latest trend. The Pakistan team is rapidly embracing Islam.

Even the youngsters in the team are talking highly of this change. Taufeeq Umar, Imran Farhat, Mohammad Sami and Umar Gul all take turns to lead namaaz prayers. And they are enjoying it.
"You can''t imagine what impact it has had on Inzy. Being at peace with himself, he can now take some captaincy decisions well," says Anwar.
