Sorry for the language, and for posting pics in this forum.
Re: 4th Test - Eng vs Pak - Oval, 17th-21st Aug.
NO BACKING DOWN - PCB / TEAM MANAGEMENT SHOULD TAKE A FIRM STANCE AGAINST THIS FAT CLOWN HAIR EVEN IT MEANS NOT PLAYING THE ODI'S.
Re: 4th Test - Eng vs Pak - Oval, 17th-21st Aug.
Have they found the evidence and named the guilty player yet? Ofcourse not!
Pakistan should not come out to play tomorrow. ICC needs to take action against Hair which I doubt they will.
Protesting for a 'few minutes' and resuming the match after tea was a stupid idea. Diplomatic solutions are not reached without ICC's involvement. Pakistany board kay saray baboN nay ghaas khai howi hai. No need to resume play tomorrow unless they get an official apology from Hair or see the evidence of ball doctring.
Re: 4th Test - Eng vs Pak - Oval, 17th-21st Aug.
Yes make the fat clown kneel down to them and get a an apology if no evidence is found before thematch restarts.
Re: 4th Test - Eng vs Pak - Oval, 17th-21st Aug.
I fully support Pakistan team and the management, so should we all. They need to stand up for themselves against all these accusations. ICC doesn't listen to anyone unles something like this happens. So if this is the only way to get ICC involved, so be it.

Reason?
We hate Hair!

Re: 4th Test - Eng vs Pak - Oval, 17th-21st Aug.
what an ********. pakistan were well on their way to win this series... but now it's either going to be drawn or lost because of his idiocy.
for once, even the english commentators were baffled by his move and had no way of backing him up.
darrel hair is in deep **** right now, and i would hope that pakistan, as a proud nation and team, would object to playing any more cricket with him as the umpire.

I believe you meant the MATCH and not the SERIES :)

We were never on our way to win the series. But I agree with the rest of your post though.
Re: 4th Test - Eng vs Pak - Oval, 17th-21st Aug.
lol, yes i did.
thanks for that-
Re: 4th Test - Eng vs Pak - Oval, 17th-21st Aug.
overall, this whole series was very POORLY umpired. I have never witnessed so many appeals being turned down. Although they were mostly from the Pakistani end, there were quite a few English appeals that were turned down as well (mainly Monty Panesar), which would obviously suggest racial undertones.
i hate to use racism as an excuse for incompetency, but the evidence does not seem to point in any other direction. darrel hair obviously has issues with south asian cricketers.
he was the one that accused murali of chucking... he took kaneria off (during the winter series) without any warning of walking the pitch... and then now in this series with about two or three controversial calls per day.
what baffles me the most is how the icc delibrately put him in this series, refusing to listen to the pcb's demands to not have him there. it's about time the pcb man up and make a stand for themselves.
we can't let these bigots dictate us.
Re: 4th Test - Eng vs Pak - Oval, 17th-21st Aug.
also want to add-- let’s use our powerful words and reasoning and use it productively.
file a complaint directly to the icc:

this may not necessarily mean much, but the more complaints there are, the more pressure the icc will have to actually do something about it. you never know =)
Re: 4th Test - Eng vs Pak - Oval, 17th-21st Aug.
I think he is done after this incident. His umpiring career (atleast in international cricket) is finished.
Re: 4th Test - Eng vs Pak - Oval, 17th-21st Aug.
His image is now tarnised for good. He screwed up totally and now is having to face answering for removing the bails. How he can come back and take charge of a Pakistan game without prejudice after this incident is beyond me.
Hopefully this is Hair that is gone for good.
Re: 4th Test - Eng vs Pak - Oval, 17th-21st Aug.
I hope the play doesn't continue, Pakistan chances r done almost, and it would make more of a statement if the test match is ended.
Re: 4th Test - Eng vs Pak - Oval, 17th-21st Aug.
I say we should give the finger to the Umpires and take the next PIA flight back home.
Re: 4th Test - Eng vs Pak - Oval, 17th-21st Aug.
^Yeah, I agree, I wudn't mind if Pakistan went home after this incident, but pretty sure Hair won't be umpiring in ODI's after these events so i dont think Pakistan will pull out.
Re: 4th Test - Eng vs Pak - Oval, 17th-21st Aug.
Steady on, with Afridi and Actor set to resume normal services we still have a score to settle with England in the ODIs.
Re: 4th Test - Eng vs Pak - Oval, 17th-21st Aug.
Pakistan taking the next PIA home would add unncessery friction between England and Pakistan. This is between PCB and ICC, not PCB and ECB. Pakistan should put in writing to ICC that enough is enough. Either replace this guy or we're going home.
Re: 4th Test - Eng vs Pak - Oval, 17th-21st Aug.
Quite honestly, I think this whole “few minutes protest” is a concealment of the facts. I personally think in what Rameez said about Inzi getting bulldozed by the authorities to come back on the field and he shouldn’t have…
What Shehryar Khan had to say in his interview was simply an explanation to appease the ICC.
