Melbourne Bitters 06/07 Team Thread

its about time an umpire called it how it is without thinking of the implications, havent seen one in ages

 

[Simbazz]

Darrel Hair is indeed right to be suspicious, and if he feels there is a change in the ball, along with Doctrove(Who would have also needed to agree for a ball change to take place) then they are right to offer KP and Bell the decision of a new ball, i dont get why pakistan are moaning about being punished by just 5 runs, its nothing major is it

Wasn't it Collingwood and Pieterson.

Indeed it was.

I have gained a lot of respect for Hair after what he did; He had every right to it, and Pakistan reacted like babies IMO.

 

[rickyp]

correct, inzimam is an idiot for what he does and i cant see how anyone can justify it.

 

[evertonfan]

It's good to see that some people share my views, in thye 'Pakistan in England' thread everyone has a go at me for disagreeing with them. So thanks Aussies!

Quote of the decade if Vaughan or Flintoff say so!

Well they're all stupid then, you can't justify what he did, he had every right to have the game taken away from him. He doesn't deserve to have a win if he does things like that.

 

[rickyp]

hes gonna get suspended too so they are all gonna sook their ways back to pakistan

 

[smssia0112]

And then they'll say Darrell Hair should be banned from umpriring because we think we're so important because we're from Asia and we are better than everyone else because it's a big sport here.... We should hold the World Cup every second time because we are Pakistan and India and we are better than everyone else.

i wouldnt go that far, but seriously, pakistan are on their high horse thinking that just because something isnt going there way it has to be someone elses fault.

Everything was going their way, all that happened was that England got 5 free runs, and a new ball, and they chose to take this as a personal insult and did the stupid thing and refused to play. If they don't want to forfeit then they can play, but Inzi should've been smart enough to know what would happen.

And as for Imran "I'm a cheating idiot who doesn't take ruthless murdering dictators seriously" Khan, calling Darrell Hair a "mini-hitler" is absolutely the most insensitive, stupidest thing I have heard in my life. To compare a ruthless dictator who kill millions of people to an umpire who follows the rules without caring what the selfish teams may think, I hate Pakistan more than any other country now.

Right, let me know if this is too political because I'm far from done.

 

[rickyp]

as far as im concerned, the only racist thing to happen is kahn calling hair a mini-hitler, they should know that racism goes both ways

Exactly, I'm glad to know people agree with me. What Pakistan complain about is their "honour", but Hair has his honour too and he is capable of being upset just like Inzamam Ul-Haq and just like everyone else in the world. He could've portested after the match, but chose to hold up fans, players, umpires and sponsors by having a schoolgirl fit.

 

[evertonfan]

I really hope Pakistan get a heavy punishment for this; They are practiclally saying to the ICC, "If you ban Inzamam we boycott the ODI series". They deserve to be kicked out of the ICC if Pakistan continue to hold them to ransom.

And why are the PCB trying to punish England by pulling out of the series? We've done nothing wrong!
