Kaif bhai plz do well in this years IPL,4 the seek of ur fans,,,,,,,plz plz plkz plz plz,i will watch IPL just 4 u...........

— mdsadiqm
Assalamualaikum,
I have been a big fan of urs from the time when you were man of the match for nat west final 2002. I know you are a busy cricketer on field but the situation has now changed because of t20 format. every body wants to see hard hitting sixes from you but that is not all.I just want you to score or maintain a strike rate of 150 for every match and please not score any thing less than 30(20 balls) for each innings which is perfect in t20 format. I know you have the ability to take it from there to make is a big one. I just want you to aim for 30 and the moment you reach your aim then go for the kill. I know all those words sounds funny but this is all what i can say.
Kind Regards.
Sadiq

hamane talaash jahaan me,
magar koee yahaa

samajhataa nahee hai,
aaj hee to baazaar me
saudaa huaa mere zameer kaa
aur log kahate hai ki
kuCh bikataa nahee hai.
Do well

— irshad ali
Jab bhi aak kaas dost ke bare mein sochta huin, mere aankhon ke samney rehti ho tum,
Muskhurahat ke baateiy keh kar mere hont pe Muskhurahat lati ho tum
Dur mein rehti ho tum, lakeen mere ghum ko dur karti ho tum
Sachey dil se dosti karti ho tum, ki teri har yaadein mere pass chod kar gayi ho tum
Sochta huin aise dost bachpaan mein mile kyu nahi
Ye wada karta huin is duniye me kuch bhi chodney ke liye tayar hai lakeen aapko nahi
Welcome

hi kaif
i love ur fielding the work done by u on the field for india. but u did not come up to mark for rajastan royals last season. we (punjab) lack of indian players so we took u. u should u r work for the team standing by the side of yuvi.
i expect u to fulfill the punjab team. your the best fielder for india after yuvi, dont think the otherway i support him as i am a big fan of him.expecting u to do alot of work for india on the field with ur hands for kxip.
Kaif was the great Player.
— shah11
