good to see somebody in the know with the procedures of the english cricket authoritys.:worthy:

Do your best to explain and I may think about giving an answer. And what evidence do you have that umpires are visually impaired?

I was refering to my evidence about you, which of course under the laws of cricket I do not have to share with you.

I thought that everyone in the whole world knew by now, that it is a prerequisite that all umpires,referees,etc should be at best partially sighted so that correct decisions cannot be given,thereby raising the tension at sporting occasions and causing many sports to be brought into disrepute.

Re: PAKISTAN Cricket team shame on them!

a caller to 5 live last nite made a good point - he goes that unless the english batsmen made a few hundred runs in quick succession, that pakistan bowled real real bad and somehow luck was on the english side it was a match that pakistan cud not have lost.

so hence - y cheat? u've already lost the series, ur winning a face saving last test, and y only 5 runs? 5 runs means the cheating must've happened in the previous few overs

Re: PAKISTAN Cricket team shame on them!

Fair point Mani.I have to disagree[not for the first time] with Ossyclogger:,taking a lighthearted and sarcastic view is not always appreciated. Cricket is a serious sport to those of us who follow it and I object to all umpires being branded as useless.Maybe Mr Clogger would like to mention that to my Dad next time they meet as he held the Lancs League Umpire prize for a number of years.The fact of the matter is that we have seen no evidence of ball tampering,we have to rely on the umpires judgement;and their judgement should be final.
I can see that there maybe doubt over the ball tampering issue but the fact that Inzy refused to take the field may leave him open to the disrepute charge.But this has now become a politically sensitive issue and I very much doubt if we will get a clear cut decision.

Chances are we will never get the full hog over this even after the meeting on Friday.

Re: PAKISTAN Cricket team shame on them!

Ranjan. Madugualle. has has personal problems! I call it an absolute coup
for British diplomacy, not only do they get a "homer" to sit in judgment
he is somehow unable to be available at the eleventh hour.
Now Pakistan has no reason to throw the towel in, the ball is squarely in
thier camp. pardon me for grabbing the "sick bag Alice". chin chin.

-Are you implying that his punishment has all ready been decided without a hearing. :eek:
That wouldnt do that would they??? :confused::rolleyes:

Too many of these old boys networks insport so its about time it was an independent setup. A career is at stake here as well as team integraty.

Re: PAKISTAN Cricket team shame on them!

"The Old Boys" invented these wonderfull games, that's why the rules are so
severlely imposed. I think your right about Inzamann's career, he should try umpireing next he tried to be both lastweek.

It's a cheap way of letting Pakistan off the hook, an umpire of Hair's
calibre can expect to be well paid. Hair was trying to be diplomatic by keeping things quiet. Wonder who dug the dirt out of his emails? :engsmil:

mani	27-08-2006 16:03

Re: PAKISTAN Cricket team shame on them!

the icc let them out themselves - it wasnt leaked out or anything

the email wasnt marked confidential etc and they felt it was in the public interest and the interest of this investigation that they release the email
