Pie-eater (Inzy) calls it a day (In ODI's)

[Browney2006]

You're right, he didn't forfeit a Test match. Hair did. As for Headingley, if it's the one I'm thinking of - he was not out.

How the hell was he not out?

Monty must have got him 3-4 times in that Series!

Erm, noone forced Inzy to go off the pitch, a civil man would have sorted it OUT afdter the game after giving England a beating,

That's not a forefeit. Hair forfeited the match.

and the Headingly dismissal was most certainly out, falling onto his stumps after trying to sweep monty and then there is the charge down the pitch, missed by a mile and was stumped. england win the series, Thanks very much.

That wasn't the controversial dismissal. What's the problem with that?

Actually under the laws of cricket it is a forfeit when you do not show up on the ground to play the game

As for controversy, you might be getting confused with the Pakistan series in 2005 which was certainly out

 

[Greg Miller= Messiah]

Yep, we are getting into match-fixing again.

No team in the world is as unpredictable as Pakistan has been for god knows how long.

As you say, match-fixing is eay for any team, even easier for Pakistan considering their unpredictable nature and dirty and sordid recent history.

Like I said in another post though (Irelands Test status) , I hope I'm wrong.

West Indies come close how often has this team lost to teams they should beat comfortably, they almost went down to zimbabwe last night where's the claims they are match fixing NZ also has there fair share of dodgy losses too ooo that Stephen Fleming looks crooked to me

Fine, feel free to make love to the Pakistani Cricket team then.

Windies have been a shambles, no doubt but not on the same scale as the Pakistani side. Look at the turmoil, infighting and Captain and Coach turnovers rin the last 5 or so years.

NZ??? You are kidding aren't you?? Steven Fleming is quite possibly the best Captain in world cricket and with injuries to their star players over the last year or 2 its hardly surprising their up and down. Styris, Oram and Bond have all had time away from the game due to injuries so that is a really silly argument.

 

[DOG GOD]

the problem with pakistan is that they have such inconsistant players. Other than younis, yousef and inzy, the rest of the team have severe high and lows.

On any given day razzaq and afridi can win a game against ANYONE, but they only do it 2/10 times.

Since the days of anwar and sohail pakistans biggest hurdle has been their opening pair. Too many combinations, and not giving a fair go to players like Salman Butt (who shouldve been in the world cup).

Bowling is inconsistant with shoaib constantly missing, and injuries to gul and the issue with asif hasnt helped their cause.

Ok pakis lost to ireland and shoulnt have...

if carlton had beaten west coast in perth last year where they SHOULDVE would posters be thinking westcoast threw the match? a similar argument.

I'm sure it is. But Hair forfeited the match. Inzi did nothing of the sort.

And while Inzi chose the wrong path, his stance was vindicated when Hair was shown to be the corrupt, racist party to the affair that he was.

No, on a worse scale.

Captain after captain?

Players walking out after sponsorship disputes?

Players with criminal records for violent assault?

Losing far more than Pakistan ever did, at home as well?

Infighting to a worse scale than Pakistan? Hell, their best captain Carl Hooper quit the game and went to live in Australia because he despised Lara.

Out of context, my words were in relation to Pakistan's sporadic performances, not team harmony/indiscretions

 

[cold toaster]

The Windies performances have been a lot worse and even more sporadic.

He was? When? Or was it proven because all the Asian teams ganged up on him because unlike everyone else in the ICC he stood up to them

 

[Browney2006]

You still seem to be dodgying the fact that Inzi was out as well, or have you got that wrong as well?

No evidence of ball-tampering.

Asian conspiracy calls do you no credit.

Are you always this confrontational?

Please explain how Inzy was not out as well? I am waiting for this beauty.

 

[Mr P@H]

There was no evidence there wasn't ball tampering, I'm personally sure i saw Druggie 2 do *Something* with the ball and this is probably what Hair saw and was suspicous...

On that line of argument, there is no evidence that you're not an al-Qaeda terrorist who has brutally *******ed David Hicks, is there?

Are you gunna answer the Inzi question or not. I dont understand how you cant give that out....

 

[Mr P@H]

It's a fair cop Guv...

So yeah hopefully Younis gets the gig as i like him, at least he makes an effort to speak English, Hopefully Mushy takes over as coach too so won't be terrorising County Batsmen anymore

Asian Conspiracy discredits him?

The fact that Hair was considered the second best Umpire in the World, and was basically voted out by the Asian Bloc of Cricket doesn't suggest collusion?

Whether there was no evidence of ball tampering or not (which I don't believe, especially considering a few of the Pakistanis came out after and said it should be legal), dropping your bundle and taking your team from the field isn't the correct response - you get on with it and address the issue after.

Hair said they did it, no evidence.

Both are idiots.
