Spot Fixing Scandal Thread: The Legend Continues

[Chetan0304]

Big point here is that the bans need to come from ICC, not the PCB. In fact the PCB needs to be banned

I second this ^


I couldn't stop praising the little 18 year fella Aamer last night, he has immense talent, at such a young age i already see his bright future in all forms of the game.. and now comes this scandal..just hope, his bowling abilities aren't suppressed.

well this is very sad news, it just looked like Pakistan were done with controversies and were looking forward but this i believe will be it for PCB and the Pakistan Team. ICC needs to take a tough decision and i say delist Pakistan as an ICC member. And then i believe if Pakistan are to play any cricket again the board will have to be scrapped and all the dealings of the board will have to be done by the ICC, at least for a few years because the Pakistan Cricket Board is completely useless. Very sad day for cricket

Let's shy away from obviously sensationalist publications

Case in point for News of the World:

The ICC needs to take out the ban hammer. They can't let Pakistan get away with this. Sure, you can say it's a few players but 4/11 is a lot of the side. Especially when the captain, 2 opening bowlers and a wicket keeper is in on it. Between them they have full control of the fielding portion of the innings.

Plus list the incidents Pakistan's been involved with the last decade:
-The Oval Test
-The Sydney Test and Lords Test
-The Ball Biting incident
-Players being caught with drugs > Asif, Akhtar etc.
-Teams can't tour their country because of bomb blasts. The Sri Lankan side getting shot, NZ team having to bail from a tour from hotel bombings.
-Bob Woolmer dieing - probably not their fault but who knows.

They're just a mess and they need to be relegated to sort their ████ out. The PCB can't have good controls in place.

But the ICC will be soft. A few players will get year bans and it'll keep happening.

Asif for starters should be life banned. He's a drug cheat and now a match fixer also. Get rid of him. It would be a shame if Amir was banned for life, but he needs a term ban as well as Salman. Kamran Akmal is a nil keeper and nil batsman and if not banned, the PCB should ban him themselves.

I really feel for Aamer. What a career he could have had. He got influenced by the wrong crowd. I'm guessing he will get a life ban.

Well done to NOTW for doing this. This can only help Pakistan Cricket in the future. Still shocked by all this. I'm not surprised the Akmals are involved, but Aamer!

Pakistan Cricket Board Should Be Handled By ICC

 

[sjdigitall]

PCB and Pakistan cricket should be delisted and should only be considered for playing against test nations or anything ICC sanctioned for at least 5 years. If i were the Pakistan Sports Minister i would just completely abolish the PCB and get people from the ICC to run it .

If he was part of this, HE SHOULD BE BANNED FROM CRICKET BY THE ICC!! Dont care how good a bowler he is.

 

[WubbaLubbaDubDub]

Salman Is The Ring Leade is what that bookie said, He said that Salman also consulted him then involved Kamran,Amir,Asif


BAN THEM NOW

ICC have to act soon and say 'We pick the guys who will run Pakistan cricket, or PAKISTAN CRICKET WILL NOT RUN!'

Yep and all players involved banned for life. Simple as that. Its a shame because Amir, Asif, Butt are talented players.

 

[WubbaLubbaDubDub]

It was shame that Captain put's this as an example.

I will not be surprised if Pakistan in World Cricket League someday

Umar Amin & Wahab Riaz?? That is ridiculous

Can't believe they are just going to continue the match regardless. in some ways it is good. Imagine the sledging! But I have gone right off this game. Of course you are innocent until proven guilty but in this case I am looking for people to prove their innocence rather than for others to prove their guilt. If any of the facts are true the ICC needs to come down hard, really hard....but they won't. Too much money involved for them as well.....

 

[ali_ed2001]

I request anyone going to the match tomorrow to pelt these guys with bottles and tomatoes, and insult them in any way possible. ICC needs to set an example here, so that nothing like this happens in future. I'm all for life bans.
