Will ICC look into Capetown pitch?

Australia are just past the lowest Test score ever of 26 and are in tatters at 9 down for 30 odd. This has been a spectacular test match in terms of runs scored and wickets fallen. 21 wickets on day 2 for 190 odd runs. Its still a possibility that the lead of 220 odd is a matchwinning one and Australia might still go and win this test. 

But the bigger and relevant question here is will ICC look into the pitch and call for investigation of  Capetown pitch and ban it? They have already banned Kotla, had a look in Galle and Green Park when this 2 nations were involved in a result. 

And its again SA and Aus, so are they going to take some action over this?

Jadeja, Spot fixing verdict and the Butts

Ravinder Jadeja has scored a triple century in the Ranji opener against Orrisa at a Sehwagasque strike rate of 83. And that has thrown rumor mills rife at the fact that he would be taken along to  Australia as # 6 batsman and also a part time spinner.  I doubt the wisdom and brains of cricketing selectors in India that they might be tempted to think that Jadeja has now turned completely into an allrounder mode and can contribute in Tests too. Times Of India shamelessly rooted for this chap to be included in tests. The only opening for now in the tests slot seems to be for # 6 with 3 contenders in the team for it and 4th one actually getting fitter.  Jadeja, in selectors' view can become the 5th one.

 

He also took 10 wickets in the recently concluded England ODi series and now has 15 wickets in 8 games since his return. I wonder if he would be still considered to play when the likes of Yuvraj, Sehwag return to the ODI team. 

 

The 3 tainted jailed stani cricketers are now asking for mercy or even considering to file for an appeal against the guilt and sentence. Its been reported in English media that they were even left to tears on hearing the sentences handed out to them. Strange. For 15 months on, from executing the no-balls, they dint show any remorse or accept the guilt. They continued to claim they are framed and are innocent, but now when they are in jail, suddenly they are now religious and their families are talking about GOD n all. Its weird to see that in Pakistan, the evil doers dont hesitate to commit the crime, but when it comes to receive the punishment for it, they suddenly start talking GOD. 

 

The conviction of 3 cricketers has just been a start and this process must go on to find all the crooks and eradicate them. Across all countries including safe havens like middle east which are now home grounds to the Pakistanis.

 

Thats just the tip of the iceberg and whats concerning is the statement from Mazhar Mazeed "65000 pounds paid to Asif to keep him loyal and prevent him from wanderring to the "rival fixing factions in the Pakistan team" ". What does it mean? Are there more cheats and crooks involved from Pakistan?  There are rumors about involvement of Akamals, Riaz and Farhat. Are they true? None of this players are now playing for Pakistan, so are they dropped cos PCB knows in positive about their involvement and have been proactive to drop them or is it just a coincidence that now Wahab Riaz is not even part of touring team to middle east for Lanka ODIs?

 

Who is gonna bring the clown farts sitting in PCB and ICC to justice?  What was ACSU, the "toothless paper tiger" doing all this while since its inception to eradicate the corruption from the game ?

 

What happens to Sir Shri Ijaz Butt? Would he be a party to the crime of spot fixing ? Would he be let off?

 

And with this note, there is to say that Arm Ball is back.

Removal of Butt, DRS flip flop and Spot Fixing

There have been some interesting happenings in world cricket in past few days visibly:

1. Ijaz Butt being replaced as a PCB chief by some banker.

2. Spot fixing trial being on in England and as it happens during any trial, some random names are being taken up and this time its been Indian and Australian players being named.

3. ICC goes flip flop in usage of DRS in a bilateral series.

Ijaz Butt has been one attrocious chief for PCB and his shenangians as PCB chief have been very well documented. Double digit captaincy changes, rollbacks on bans, punishments, multiple retirements, rollback, selection chiefs resigning, changes in coaches and stuff like that plus loose canon statements in 3 years, Lahore attack in 2009 and world cup drama have been the highlights of his tenure. Not to mention the spot fixing saga, fleeing of a wicketkeeper on the pre-text of threats from bookies, disastrous English and Australian tours, handling of players like Yusuf, Younis Khan, Afridi, Kaneria and Malik, relations with BCCI over IPL and bilateral series, tussle with ICC which led to an ultimatum to fix its internal governance or run the risk of expulsion from ICC. All of this issues have been mishandled by the great chief in general of PCB.

There is a distressing thought that he might have agreed to step down from the post in lieu of assurance that PCB and BCB would put him as ICC vice presidency candidate. If true, then it would take more than necessary efforts for the other boards than what were done to block John Howard from Australia, to block out Ijaz Butt from stepping into world cricket governance. One can only hope that Pakistan cricket shall progress in terms of every aspect under new chief and the ridicule it has invited over the years would yield to some respect in coming months and years.

Spot fixing trial has commenced in England and the 3 players in addition to the player agent in question have been cross examined and what has come out of it is a wide detail account of how the spot fixing was setup in England last year and what else was in the offing, but was prevented from execution owing to the bust up from the now defunct NOTW. Some Indian and Australian players were named as the ones whom that agent had an easy access to. No wonder, those allegations were promptly denied by CA and BCCI and the players themselves.

As the hearing is going on, more details are tumbling out of the closet of the spot fixing and thats just making the lives of those 3 tainted players more difficult and their return to international cricket being more unlikely even after serving the amount of sentence handed over by ICC. What was also distressing out of the details that emerged was the ease with which Pakistan players agree to lose / throw a match to disown their captain or bring the captain under the hood for some egoistical / weird reason. It's been the age old story of their country and their cricket ever since their inception since 1947.

ICC also has gone back on the mandatory usage of DRS (Dravid Removal System) in bilateral series. BCCI had been vocal in the criticism of DRS and though it diluted its stand in England tour, the happenings in England were good enough to indicate BCCI that DRS in current form has no future unless those acrimonious issues over Hot Spot usage and ball tracking technology have been addressed. India has suffered out of the DRS usage in whatever series it has accepted, be it SL 2008, or world cup 2011 or England tour of 2011. The BCCI has been adamant in its opposition to the DRS, thought they havent taken the pain to go ahead and explain the reasons for their opposition. That has never been BCCI's strong forte to offer detailed explanation for its views and stand over issues.

What is further baffling is the time ICC took to understand that DRS in current form is not good enough to be imposed as mandatory in all bilateral series. Instead of resolving the open issues that are meeting eyeballs, the ICC has chosen to keep the issue under the carpet and sit over it. Take a stance, revert back. Thats been ICC theme for 2011. Be it usage of DRS or the World cup 2015 format banning out the associate nations and then rolling back. What is Sharad Pawar doing ?

ICC has also been harping on the primacy of Test cricket and when its coming to the implementation of plans of test championship, it is developing cold feet. Its now saying that the proposed Test championship might be delayed until 2017 cos the broadcaster wants to lay stress on profit earning ventures like a T20 WC every 2 years and an increasingly obsolete 50 overs Champions Trophy, not to forget the T20 tamasha of Champions League T20.

This is also a start of the time period in world cricket when all 10 teams are going to be busy in cricket.

Mr and Mrs ten percent

ICC has sent notice to Kamran Akamal indicating he is under scanner for his suspicious activities all this year for Australian tour, England tour and Asia Cup activities.  TOI reports that he had been notified before the Lord's test too and he had replied to the notice. But the notice reply were found to be ridiculous and so he was charged once again.

This time the PCB was ignored. The notice was sent directly to the rogue keeper.

PCB chief returned to his homeland and received jeers. Still unfazed he declared he wont have any investigation as ICC and Scotland Yard investigation are already on. Actually he meant this

We are incompetent, impotent and idiots. If we launch any investigations then all we are going to do is say "Where is the proof" ? If proofs are unearthed we would ban and fine the players. And then have them submit the appeals and finally revoke the bans and fines. We would turn a blind eye to what the players do while on the tour, whom they meet, how much cash they make, whether they play cricket or do anything beyond that. We are incompetent, impotent."

So in the end its back to the square one. Laughing stock. Amazingly, still nothing would happen. Butt, the bil of Pak defence minister shall continue to be  the pCB chief and continue to say "Where is the proof" and "Innocent until proved guilty". He would be "impotent until proved potent".

If Akamal is charged then why is he playing ?

A search for Ijaz Butt on twitter yields some hillarious tweets even from his own countrymen like "trading off Ijaz Butt" and stuff like that.

Irony is that who is going to kick him out ? The patron ? Mr 10 % :D. Who knows he might be getting some slice of the spot fixing payment from the bookies !! And Ijaz Butt would be getting his share too. Probably that explains the reason why this two buffoons are still in place.

ICC suspends Pakistan captain, premier fast bowler and Veena Malik's ex bf

Start of the day : PCB withdraws  the 3 players on grounds of mental torture from media, bloggers, ex-cricketers and fans. Pakistan envoy to Britain confirms this proving that he is cousin of Ijaz Butt in terms of mental health and wisdom.

Later in the day : ICC suspends 3 players on grounds of corruption under ACSU.

Welcome step.  Some action had to be taken and ICC was the only one who could have taken this action given how impotent and inept PCB is.

What happens to Kamran  Akamal ? He was implicated too right ? Did Shahid Afridi save his ass as Akamal constantly rants Shahid Bhai Shahid Bhai ?

By the way collage below (courtesy : ndtv.com and mid-day.com) should be good enough to nail Salman Butt and Kamran Akamal.  A fitting reply to those who are asking for proofs. Nothing can get bigger than this pictures and the video footage shown by NOTW.

PCB wont take any action on Cheaters

ECB has said its players are reluctant to take on a team which has spot fixer tainted players in the ODIs and T20s.

Mr Sharad Pawar has said ICC wont step in till the investigations are done. That is, the 4 players would continue playing T20s and ODIs leading to more fixing.

The Buffoon at PCB has said

"This is only an allegation. There is still no charge or proof on that account. So at this stage there will be no action taken"

As expected Buffoon turns his eye off on the erring players. There are reports in ToI which suggest that the PCB has a nexus with the bookies responsible for the spot fixing. So its obvious the head of PCB wont act on the beneficiaries of the booking gate.

ICC now signalling that it may suspend 4 players (CNN-IBN).

As of now the fact is the 4 suspended players would continue playing and none of ICC, PCB would act on the players.

Another indication that the spot fixing stuff would be rubbed under carpet.

Spot Fixing would be buried under carpet

The Pak squad has left for Taunton amidst the slogan of thieves. And Majeed Mazhar has been released on bail too. ICC is dysfunctional, PCB is hopeless.

It gives a feeling that this episode is also going to be pushed inside carpet and the named culprits are going to continue in the way previous ones have done over decade and half.

Worst thing is that this episode has come right around the world cup and ideally the ICC should act stern to fix the problem of fixing for good.

Thats a realm of speculation and very unlikely it would happen. The worst thing is the 4 cheats would still be playing the T20s and the ODIs. Best thing could have been suspend the 4 players at least till the allegations are proved / invalidated. 

Pakistan cricket needs to be isolated !!

For the first 2 or 3 days of Lord's Test it seemed that Pakistan are back to being a decent Test team until Broad and Trott had the record shattering 332 run partnership for 8th wicket.

And then the hell broke loose.

Spot fixing allegations came out in open after News of the World broke the story how Mazhar  Majeed paid the talents of Pakistan cricket to ball no-balls during the ongoing Lord's Test.

Since then the world of cricket has just been flooded with the shock and awe.

Its nothing new on the Pakistan's part to be coping up with this allegations. They have had a history of such misdeeds and the current cricketers have illustrious seniors to look up for spot fixing and stuff like ball tampering, match fixing. Many of them are coaches now, have gone on to become highest ODI wicket takers and what not.

Salman Butt, Aamer, Drug Peddler Asif and ugly slut Kamran Akamal are the players indicated in this spot fixing stuff.

The English media is overboard with how Test cricket was killed at the home of cricket, the Pakistani media is yet to come to the terms with the reality. Poor they, they have had to cover a lot of such stuff in last 3 years. Mush, 10 %, Buttology, MoYos, Younises, Afridis, Butt again, Akamal muck,  spot fixing, T-e-Ts, floods, war against homegrown terror and what not.

PakPassion.net had glorified the Mazeed brothers having a dedicated section on the website named as "Agents Corner". The Pakistani bloggers are quiet in the shock. Feel for them. Why do they even follow Pakistani cricket ?

As long as Pakistan is going to play cricket, this dirt and muck is going to be around. No matter how strong we have units like ICC ACU, Qayyums and stuff, the crooks of Pakistan all round the world are going to lure the poor Pakistani players who when debut do not even have manners (accent) or money to be correct on foreign tours. So its easy for them to be lured to petty temptations and sell their integrity for some pounds or dollars or Pakistani rupees.

When the country itself is deep in immorality of terror, home grown insurgency, floods and anti-world mindset its futile to expect this young cricketers to have any kind of integrity and morality.  And when the Ijaz Butts rule the PCB and act in a weird way to ban, appeal and overturn, its futile or better to not expect the PCB or Mr 10 % to act on the latest dirt from Pakistani cricket closet.

Best way would be to ban Pakistan from playing all forms of cricket till their administration comes clean on the laundering,  cheating and fixing. Worse even do not invite the cheats from Pakistan to play anywhere in the world for they would bring a lot of unwanted publicity and attention where they go. Let their team play within their own country.

Cricket wont die due to a misgiving from a rogue country. T20s wont die, Tests and ODIs wont die. Normal business shall resume. When its a normal of a Pakistani cricket to be corrupt then why pretend to be shocked and write obituaries for cricket when its in a good state though bruised a little bit. Just a bit.

The ODI series and the T20s to follow in England now become irrelevant and we should get our popcorn and coke to watch out the theaterical drama unfold in Pakistani cricket circles with Ijaz Butt being the old hero in centerstage. Just hoping that ICC would act strong this time to kill the virus of fixing forever and come too hard on the erring players, administrators and bookies.

Lights camera Action!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Power and Howards

Sharad Pawar is now ICC president after accumulating experience of 3 years as BCCI chief and 2 years as ICC vice president. And that qualifies him to be the ICC president. If that means an able candidate is not a sure shot conclusion.

That’s the grounds on which BCCI shot down John Howard’s candidature for ICC vice president post.  Addition to India, 5 other boards shot down Howard’s candidature. SL had its own reasons (just cos Howard had termed Murali a chuck, which is true) to block him and so did Zimbabwe (he refused to send Aussie team to Zim and as a result no Aussie team has travelled to Zim for a test series since 1999 and Zim team to Aus since 2003).

Sharad Pawar’s credibility is well known to everybody in India.  Failing crops, farmers suicide in his native state, mismanaged food economy and higher inflation rates for food items besides alleged stakes in failed Pune IPL bid and other IPL entities are some of the blots on his CV.

So Sharad Pawar being an ICC president is not a very enthusiastic piece of news for India, albeit a shameful one.

Malcolm Speed has following insights to offer on how Pawar attended ICC meetings:

“The man who is to be the next ICC president, Sharad Pawar, is the Minister for Agriculture in the Indian government - a serious full-time job, feeding 1.2 billion people. He is a good and fair man but he will be working part-time as ICC president and, take it from me, he knows little about cricket administration. I was present at several ICC board meetings he attended. ICC meetings generally last two days. Pawar attended for one hour and was then replaced by one of the Board of Control for Cricket in India apparatchiks. They were concerned that he was too busy and would be too reasonable.”

Not sure if that’s true or out of malice. But the flip flop of Pawar  clan over the IPL stake issues have put him in a very bad light.  He is confused so as which job to approach full time and part time. Whether serving as federal minister or going as ICC president or serving his own and his family’s vested interests in ventures like IPL.  He is a man chosen to do the job just out of vote bank politics and John Howard was rejected just cos BCCI did not want to upset Zimbabwe and Sri Lanka for its future vote bank politics.  Nobody cares about Pakistan and if the man is quizzed why he opposed Howard, the man would make up a lame issue and then do a u-turn over it.

So if Howard was rejected for ICC post for some reasons, then same reasons and additional ones apply for rejecting Sharad Pawar as ICC president, but that wont happen. For next 2 years the ICC members would need to engage translators and language therapists to understand what Pawar is mumbling in the meetings.

Who knows even his daughter Supriya Sule could attend ICC meetings as his proxy!!!

ICC Awards.

ICC awards.

Whoa man.

Indian idiots all the way.

Dhoni as the captain of ODI and Test teams.....

And we called for firing him....

No T20 team so no Younis Khan. Just an award for lone sane Lankan Dilly for his Dilscoop ice cream shot.

Gambhir as Test player.

Dhoni as ODI player. Criticism awaited. Gill babu, get started. I am awaiting for your comment on some XXXk trundler and flat track bullies.

Lol. He is stuck at that point. Get ahead, go further.

Thats the apt recognition for the Delhi kid who has set the world on fire with his explosive batting, with his patience not his natural virtue (NZ) and of course barging the shoulders to the DuckMan Watso....

ODI player MS who led his team to all bilateral wins all over and scored runs @ 61 at an impressive SR of 86, well 10 below his initial one. Criticism awaited and invited. Get started.

Test team :

Strauss and Gambhir as openers with AB as # 3 ??????? Tendulkar at 4. Thilan Samarweera at 5. Wtf. Flat track king in the Test team of year. What substanced innings did he play ?

Clarke and Dhoni at 6 and 7. Apt.

Shakib Al Hasan at 8. Mitch at 9, Broad and Steyn as rest. Debatable.

Why Samarweera. No Mahela thank god. Oodi baba. Character not heard.

ODI team :

Sehwag and Gayle as openers. Gayle ? Not quite. Gambhir would be in. KP and Dilshan. Dilshan in ODI team ? Somebody tell the selectors ODI is 50 overs, not 20. Yuvraj, Dhoni and Freddie apt. Umar Gul fine.

Mendis and Kulasekhra ? Why ? Besides 6 for 13 what did Mendis do ? He was well negated by Indians and former Indians. Still!!!

All in all a very good selection and good awards. Yes one reason cos Indians rule the roost. Unfortunately no Sri Lankan. A lesson : play on lively pitches and win abroad not only BD.

Indians in ICC awards contention pisses off Pakistan fans

They dont have a single nomination in the ICC awards that matter. They had a media men in the jury that selected the nominations. Perhaps Ijaz Butt was kicked out off his butt when he tried to sneak in to the jury. Or for that matter Rashid Latif or Javed Miandad would cry foul that the jury is biased and pro-India. Pro - India means automatically anti-Pakistan. Thats what they have lived with all 62 years of their existence.

As a result our glorious neigbhours are pissing off in their pants to see so many Indians in the nominations.

Sehwag and Gambhir along with MS in ODIs. MS and GG in Tests. Fair call. Not cos they are bloody Hindustanis, but they excelled in all conditions.

Our glorious padosis never stepped in whites entire 2008 for a very crap reason "security". Go ask the Zardaris, Butts and Gilanis who is responsible for the security in their country. Is it ICC or is it MMS ? Ask Fazalullah and others to back out a bit.

Hop across every blog and you find this stani army character ranting about how drugs should be allowed in the game and how Indians are "fixed" to win awards.

No surprise this comes from a supporter of a team which has all above characterstics : drug peddlers, fixers, selfish players, fighters and what not. All this combine to play with sole honest person Younis Khan and they are called Pakistan national cricket team.

Drug abused : Asif

Drug peddler : Asif

Fighter : Asif and Akhtar. Afridi and Malik.

Selfish : Misbah and Yousuf. One of them changed religion to grab the captaincy of the team, alas he never succeeded.

When you dont set out in whites to play a 5 day game how do you expect to be in the nomination even if you send 100 talibani fighters to the ICC headquarters in Dubai to hold gun point over the jury and ask Pakistani players to be nominated ?

India are now official bloody # 1.

Yo Baby.

We are # 1. Yup. Cant believe it. 34 wins out of 56 ODIs since 2007 debacle sees bloody Blue BCCI owned Indians go on top.

In the money power, in the financial clout, in the bullying, in muscle twist and now in game too. India are # 1 in ODIs.

Fair judgement. ICC rankings are still crap.

yeah I know people would have critical approach on ODIs, but who cares. When your team goes on top and whoop goes my heart.

Irrespective of dancing baby falling quickly or Dravid falling short of expectations. Yuvraj failing and Sach 4 short of 8x;s fifty, the Indians roasted Kiwis today and tomorrow would gulp Sri Lankans without even bothering about who the fuck Sanga, Blabba, Thilana or Malinga or whoever it is / are.

Bullying ? Yes.

Younis Khan and Umar Gul for sure would ejaculate out of the high they would get if they beat their own bitter and no 1 arch rivals, the b.b. BCCI owned Indians. And imagine if SL beats India tomorrow, how high the Sangas and Blabbas would fly.

Move aside SA, Australia long gone. Kiwis fried, Pakistan is nobody. Its India all the way. #1. Orgasmic. Nice, real and surreal as Hugh Grant says to Julia Roberts in Notting Drill (Hill).

Test Player 09

goes to Gautam Gambhir...............

Baat khatam, paisa Hajam.

End of the game babeh.

ICC settles Pak WC dispute

Butt gets his pie.

Sue ICC.

Blackmail them. Cry foul. Evoke sympathies.

Dont touch the core of the problem. Beat around the bush. Go rounds in circles.

Settle for an out of court agreement.

Retain host fees, get additional payment.

Fill up the empty coffers, arm twist the ICC.

Drop legal case. Everybody happy.

Cricket back in Pakistan ? Long way no. Butt back to smiling ways and with even stronger verbal diaorrhea (Spelt wrong).

Jeete Raho Butt Mia.

Test rankings

…are real crap. As per the annual update the Lankans are # 3 and Indians are # 4. How come that happened ?

A look at their record suggests they played 2 against Australia and lost. Drew in WI, won 2-0 against BD, that’s their default scoreline. Who bothers and then 2-1 win against India, thanks to the disgusting referral decisions (26 – 3 in favor of SL). They beat Pakistan 2-0 but then Pakistan weren’t at the top of the table.

Amazing man.

India won against England 1-0 twice, 2-0 against Australia, 1-0 against Pakistan, drew 1-1 against SA and lost 1-2 against Australia (should have won 2-1) and Sri Lanka. Beating strong teams doesn’t count? Winning 2-0 against top team doesn’t count and losing 0-2 against them counts. Wow man. And yes 1-0 in NZ too.

I believe the ICC doesn’t look into the quality of the opposition. It just sees the rankings how and which team beat when and what numbered. Bizzare. Rankings are biased towards Sri Lankans. Out of nowhere Kulasekra becomes # 1 in ODIs, Sangakara leaps to # 1 out of nowhere. MoYo returns and becomes # 1. Guys like Gambhir who have been in platinum form are briefly numbered 1. Chandu forever remains in top 10. Tendulkar despite being in tremendous form in 2008 – 09 never jumps to top 10. Sehwag lingers on 20s and Laxman never reaches top 15. Dravid who was in peak form from 2002 – 2006 hardly became # 1.

Who said India rules the cricket world ? There is no other Test team other than India and South Africa who have got better results anywhere. Look at the performance of this 2 teams in Australia. India won in Perth, something which no one was able to do besides fading Windies of 1991. India did in 2008, SA repeated in 2009. If there was no Bucknor, India would have won Sydney in 2004 and then again in 2008. England lost 0-5 in 2006 in Australia. SL lost 0-2 in 2008 when Murali got only 4 wkts. Pakistan lost 0-3 in 2004-05.

Look at India’s performance in Tests. They have been the best of teams in the pure real cricket over last 2 years. And they drop to # 4. And then contrast that with SL who play boring draws everywhere and win only in their own home conditions and Bangladesh. There is no comparison even. Yet they go up to # 3. A 2-0 or 3-0 win later this year would be apt result for India and set this crap stuff right.

Justice...

.........done to the performance of Indian ODI team finally when the annual update in the ODI ICC rankings sees India go to the #2 spot with just 1 point behind leaders South Africa. This is just apt and deserving for the country which has now won 5 ODI series in a row and beaten every team in every conditions in ODIs.

And now with victory of Emerging Indian players in the tourney down under with valiant contributions from Virat Kohli, Abhishek Nayar and Sudeep Tyagi, its just the upward path for the ODi team in the future. Not to mention that the patchy forms of few young men of the team wont deter the team's chances to march ahead in the journey to recapture ODI world cup in Mumbai in 2011.

An Indian is # 1 in Test rankings

Finally the man from Delhi gets rewarded for his golden consistency. Gautam Gambhir becomes # 1 Test batsman in the world. Still ICC rankings are crap. He became # 1 cos MoYo slipped. I must say ICC rankings are still crap but its great to ssee an Indian # 1 in Tests.....Praising an Indian doesnt mean I m scathing towards neigbhors. Yet I would be said that. Lets see how long Gambhir would remain # 1.....b4 MoYo hits another selfish century and pops up again.

How can Mohd Yousuf be # 1 ?

How disgusting. Cheap and biased. MoYo is # 1 batsman in Tests. Holy crow. How come ? He didnt play a Test for 19 months and he makes a 100 and goes on the top.

And bloody hell, players like Gautam Gambhir score everywhere in every conditions. He doesnt even reach the top. Tendulkar scores 3 hundreds in 6 home tests and he is not even in top 10.

Fucking shit. Who says ICC is biased towards India ? They are for sure towards this pervert!! Out of nowhere he comes back and mocks players who play for their team with utmost sincerity and commitment. yousuf is a joke. Big joke.

Mohd Yusuf disgusts and to see him on top of rankings is even disgusting. If you term this hate, yes it is. A selfish batsman cannot be # 1 in ranking. A man who puts money and selfish interests over country and team cannot be # 1.

Anybody knows how ICC players ranking work? I see no sense here.

Time for PCB to clean the house

Pic : Is he a new Vodafone ZooZoo? Oldest of them all ?

One more zoozoo act from Ijaz Butt when he sent a legal notice to ICC for stripping Pakistan of its world cup host. Worse, he feels India is behind this step. Yeah right. All ills in world cricket arise out of the BCCI's hut. Isnt it?

Given following facts

1) There are series of bomb blasts and attacks on Pakistan security setup from the millitants ensuring a civil war is on. So how security is going to be arranged for the touring cricketers ?

2) With the terrible events @ Liberty Chowk, where cricket lost its liberty from terrorism, will any country tour Pakistan in the future? And given the fact that no team would travel to Pakistan how would PCB stage the world cup?

3) Whats the final security level going to be delivered to the touring team ? Forget the promises of president level and all that.

4) Will PCB finally take one right step rather than going to the wrong directions?

5) Will any player feel safe to travel to the ground from hotel and back amidst the terror threat?

what all options of cricket in Pakistan are possible?

Nothing unless the PCB administration is dumped. What have they done since the SL team attack?

1) Tried to get Chris Broad banned as he made a eye witness account for the attack.

2) tried to blame India for the srilankan team attacks.

3) Pakistan players were banned from IPL.

4) When the world cup was stripped again India was blamed. The security situation in India was put to question by Miandad and Butt. IPL was blamed.

Not a single step out of this seems to be towards fusing the problem and finding a solution . Cynical steps, looking at India for all its problems and then hoping for support, blaming ICC for its ills and ignoring the problems plaguing its own setup and security setup in Pakistan has all thats being done by PCB.

I am not even saying Butt and Miandad are the biggest enemies for Pakistan cricket. Saying that gives me flak and ire. calling names? Me calling them names is irrelevant. But something relevant is to do a look-in into their own setup and set things right.

Until then Pakistan should forget expecting international cricket returning to its folds. Grow up guys.

Ass on fire : Miandad and Ijaz Butt

http://cricket.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/articleshow/4470701.cms?TOI_Cricket_mostread

Middle finger to you Miandad fuckin asshole. He just sucks. He says that India is not safe to host ICC World Cup 2011. Fuck you Miandad, son of a monkey. Remember 1992 World Cup when he mocked Kiran More.

Lets not count the threat to the state of Pakistan by its own bred Taliban and stuff. Shut your mouth asshole, else we will need to set your ass on fire. Not to forget Ijaz Butt. Burn your butt Butt.
