Re: Do all cricketers…
wasim started his tirade against the ICC precisely on the day shabbir ahmed was reported for chucking once again.
if we all keep this central point in mind, maybe one can respect akrams views a little more. now, shabbir has been reported before and cleared too by the ICC after he ws sent to australia for the biomechanics tests.
now they suddenly report him once again. this is what has infuriated wasim akram and nothin else,IMO
wasim being a fast bowler can understand what shabbir might’ve gone through with this latest accusation on his action. THAT is why akram has probably gotten a little emotional and went slightly over the line with the RACE comment. however, the point is not entirely baseless, the ICC has surprisingly been catching hold of asian crciekters MUCH more than the “goras”.
is anyone here trying to tell me that only asians have a gentically predispositioned throwing arm and the gora are all clean as water??
if yes, then you probably haven seen a certain gentleman named “kyle mills” from new zealand bowl.
remember, it was dalmiya who intervened and cleared shoaib akhtar at a time when he was called up again and was on the verge of being banned for a period of time. we need more such characters like dalmiya in the ICC esp. from asian region. people like mani certainly dont mmake the cut cos of lack of heart and will. i got nothing against ehsanm mani, but he seems a little blind towards the woes of the subcontinent
listen umair, akram is a proud paki standup sorta guy, dont make such silly baseless comments man. i encourage people like akram who are passionate about the game to speak up more often
