Mohammad Yousuf and Younus Khan international careers terminated, others punished

[Iridium]

Its hard to concentrate on playing better cricket when half of the team is doing their best to disrupt the team. No team can play and perform when they arent playing as one. Not even Australia or the West Indies in their glory years could do it if 3-4 members of the team are disturbing team unity from within. These guys are the problem according to this committee and the problem has to be fixed.

Ahh that's a good point. I didn't look at it from that point of view. But to deal with that, what the PCB want is close to an upheaval of the entire team. I dunno. Pakistan cricket is an enigma....

 

[rahuldravidfan]

This is really stupid. All this is a bloody hogwash. They give sentences only to see the player knock on the doors of a government minister who would ask the PCB to take back the ban or "face consequences", after which the PCB Chief would quit stating external pressure and the new PCB would give the player another "chance" to mend his ways. Or we could have a court case in which the player's ban would get a stay order and the case will go on for years while he continues playing.

Pakistani cricket fans must be really sick of all this flip-flop nonsense.

Its really sad that for the Pakistani cricketers, cricket is a personal game to earn brownies and secure their spot and not a team game. They need an aggressive captain who gets the respect of all the player and doesn't take all this crap lying down

Shoaib Malik is a selfish bastard. Even since he was deprived of captaincy, he has been trying to incite fighting in the team. He is a group maker and a threat of unity to the team. He should be banned.
Kamran Akmal may be dropped due to his apparently doubtful behavior in Sydney test. Any body who has seen Watson run out attempt in second innings should know what I mean.
Umer Akmal may be a good player but he should be punished severely for faking injury to protest the ouster of his brother.
I do not know what Rana did wrong but it might have something to do with match fixing report from ICC.

 

[pcfan123]

So much for the match fixing incidents being "15 years old"

Never trust a word that comes out of a PCB officials mouth. They all are liars and lets just hope Waqar Younis does not turn into one of them.

 

[Varun]

Whoa !!! Pakistan Cricket is in deep trouble... really deep.

 

[sami ullah khan]

I do not believe for a second that the match fixing report is fifteen years old. Ejaz Butt-hole is nothing BUTT a liar.

^ Yes. Bring Nasim Ashraf back. He was good.

 

[drainpipe32]

What is going on back there?

 

[sami ullah khan]

^ Nothing just the usual

sami ullah khan added 1 Minutes and 29 Seconds later...

^ Yes. Bring Nasim Ashraf back. He was good.

We need someone like an Imran Khan to run affairs of cricket here in Pak. Rameez Raja is also a good choice IMHO. He understands the game and is respected well in cricketing fraternity. Since Imran can't be convinced I think Rameez must be given this job.

 

[rahuldravidfan]

^ Imran blames everything in the country on the government. He is the wrong choice unless he is the Prime Minister or President of Pakistan, which is quite improbable. Rameez is an eloquent commentator but his proficiency at handling a national board, which is as frivolous as the PCB, is something I doubt.

Sami, don't you feel sick of all this nonsense happening in your country? Coz I can't believe you guys are persisting with all this rubbish year after year.

Feeling sick my friend is understating what we Pak fans go through. Its atrocious to see the sport we love so much being reduced to this level. We still have the talent but nepotism rules the roost here . If merit had been the priority of administrators, we could have been the world beaters.
Ours is a country in turmoil. Cricket had to suffer like every other facet of our wretched society .

 

[radhe]

Do u think match fixing charges against pakistan cricket players will demolish PCB?

I think yes because pakistani players play cricket for themselves only not for the their country..

 

[Varun]

They are already demolished...

 

[drainpipe32]

There are already threads for this.....

 

[rahuldravidfan]

I think self-destruction is PCB's favourite pastime
