Ok the guys look like Wimps too (no offense).. Atleast if they had some biceps and forearms to show for it, we'd say.. "this is tragic for pakistan, but man those guys have awesome arms" :P

Pakistans two top bowlers, one the fastest bowler in the world. Make no mistake, they're fit, and Shoab has been injured and just came back.

Yes they don't realise what a big deal in the cricket world this is.
Pakistans world cup bid just got shat on from a great height.

I watched the end, poor performance from England, India has nothing to chase, but they must have bowled really well.

Munaf patel and irfan bowled a real good spell at the top and were supported by the spinners powar and harbhajan, but it was the nature of the wicket, uneven bounce and pace, was really a tough task to get your head down and get a few runs patiently.
And India too dint do too good while chasing, should have won by 7 wickets but they lost a couple of quick and unnecessary ones towards the end. but well always good to open your account with a win
Ian Australia play England on the same ground :)

in a week where gibbs has admitted not playing by the rules , on the behest of Indian bookmakers. It is very all high and migthy to say look Pakistan are cheating the reality is that everyone is cheating or was in the 80's and 90's (that takes care of the ball tampering stuff).
As foer the present day the Inzi incident and this are seperate so let's not let the demons of anti-pakistan blur our thought.
lets wait for the B sample
Jeevan
Whatever :) NZ beat southafrica and todays match is gonna be fun Pakistan VS Srilanka any guesses whos gonna win?

Pakistan are totally demoralised, but a good win here could give them the momentum they need. Don't rule them out, but the smart mo' is on Sri Lanka.

The report isnt shocking,
For first, to me Akthar 's always looked to b on drugs.. whether performance increasing or not, dunno.. but his eyes always made him look like a junky. no offense meant. a bit of personal thing as well, last time when they had a game at Jaipur.
and secondly, i dont think icc is gonna ban anyone.. coz its a small game, and if icc was to ban someone, how many incidents, Aussie's list of molestation charges, Pak- how many chucking allegations, cases where freaked out players hitting people on the stands,match fixing allegations,
etc
But unlike football, cricket needs to b nurtured and spread so to my understanding, unless the national cricket board of each country makes a deecision, ICC cant do a big deal to a player. thats what i think.

Molestation charges? What is this you speak of?
As for the ICC banning people, you may remember Shane Warne was banned for 12 months for a masking agent, even though he supposedly took it by accident.
If the ICC don't ban these too (providing the B-sample comes back positive) then it truly shows they are bending to the Asian influence over the game.

Sri Lanka are reaming Pakistan.

They came back hard but I think Sri Lanka did not take advantage of the weakened bowling attack as they should have.

Good win from the Windies.
Australia's ICC trophy woes continue. World Champions for the last 11 years, but can we win this damn cup? No.

It's a good job I am not a gambler, I would have lost serious money Windies v's Aus, well done the Windies though, good game.

man that was something, good game overall, but i guess taylor sealed it towards the end.
