Inzi’s hearing is coming up soon. I know it is a topic where most of us favor him regardless of how or what happened etc. etc. and then there are some who probably don’t for their own justifiable reasons. Anyhow it is a topic that raises our BPs quite a bit.
What should we realistically expect as the outcome of the hearings? I am not asking us to guess and try to foretell the future, rather just trying to understand based on pure “FACTS” and past history what is expected.
I am not going to speculate myself as I personally am too unsure of ICC and this Speed guy.
There are 2 charges. One for ball tampering and the second one for bringing disrepute to the game.
Your comments?
No one is scared of talking about the hearing!!! its only so much you can talk about it.
I think we all have an idea what will happen in the hearing; Hair will get a slap on the wrist and Inzi will be the liability (will be penalized for some test matches and ODi's) Thinking ahead of time is the key for PCB, and I think they have got the ball rolling by telling the Lords of ICC that they dion't want Hair to adjudicate any Pakistan team match in the coming ICC Champions Trophy. The only thing we can do is wait and see
Inshallah there will be no evidence of ball tampering and therefore ICC should order an investigation at the hearing against Darell Hair and furthermore should not allow him to officiate any matches till the completetion of investigation.
I personally think that everything has already been negotiated/decided. Inzi will face a ban of 2-3 test matches or 5-6 ODI's for bringing the game into disrepute.
The timing of hearing was delayed mainly to allow inzi to play ICC champions trophy. Pakistan will appeal against the decision and therefore Inzi will play the chamions trophy matches. After that once the appeal will be denied, Inzi will happily sit either for test matches during the homes series against Windies or the ODI series. The series will consist of 3 test and 5 ODI's.
