Shoaib Akhtar's been a naughty boy.

Why bother against Zimbabwe? Has there ever been a match between this two countries where the ugly spectre of cheating hasn't raised it's head?

Unfortunately any game which features Pakistan is open to controversy

Where's the incentive not to cheat in all this?

Shaoib is caught ball tampering he takes 7 for 118 in the match & his side win & he gets no real punishment.

He was 'severely reprimanded'-in my day we used to call it a slap on the wrist.:mad:


He should at the very last be abnned for a couple of Tests, but something should have been doen during this game, like banning him from batting & bowling anymore after it was discovered.

Why bother cheating against Zimbabwe. That would be like Glen McGrath ball tampering against Bangladesh!
