you dodos, he didn't mean injure him by hitting him with the ball or anything like that.
he meant that they should try to throw at the end that Tendya is going for and make him run hard. and since he was struggling with his leg, he would eventually have to retire hurt.
now, what is wrong with this strategy? it is perfectly legal. plus is it obligatory for the bowling team to let a batsman take easy runs just 'cause he's injured?
noo he said in a jolly mood.. we all were watchin the game too… the way he said was just in mazaaq… becausee he was kept scoring without a break so he said it just for fun.. and you indians.. dun even knwo what joke means 
and i think it was Amir Sohail not ramiz raja..
sambraline i agree.. par wo bhi mazaaq main kaha tha…
did u guys noticed that saeed anwar looks really tired after scoring his century...
i guess wo waquai boorhay horahya hian :(
Oh yeah !! When Raja says the meanest thing , he was being funny. Fact is that there wasn’t any fun in the commentary box either (Just go and watch mushtaq and Farokh Engineer Live Fight on Sky sports). Raja was damn serious while making his pathetic statement.
Those who talk about obligations to injured players should go and see the recordings of Saeed’s 194 in chennai. Sachin Ran hard for every run he scored.
Here is a Reality Check article :-
Hatred inflamed by ill-informed commentators
Report by Ariel Jackson
3 March, 2003
“If you cannot get him out, get him injured,” Rameez Raja’s impassive tone advised the Pakistanis during Saturday’s India-Pakistan match at Centurion. The reference is to you-know-whom. Later, in his column on one of the websites, the “father” of Pakistan cricket Imran Khan berates the Pakistanis for poor bowling. He summarises Sachin Tendulkar’s innings into one cliché-infested sentence.
So much for the spirit of the game! Especially between the two countries. A few months ago Wasim Akram taunted the Indian Board saying that India did not want to play Pakistan for fear of being thrashed! Words come back to haunt you, Wasim! The very same Imran Khan asked for a congratulatory message on Sachin’s 100th test did not forget to inject some venom of envy into it adding that he considered Inzamam ul Haq a better batsman than Sachin. Not that this one innings would change the “great” Imran’s prejudice and essentially unreasonable envy. But one would expect the decency to admit that Sachin’s 98 in Saturday’s match would rank up there with Vivian Richards’ 181. Except Imran, Even Waqar Younis showed the sportsman spirit to admit that they were outclassed by one great knock, stopping short of emulating Steve Waugh whose famous line in 1998 was, “It’s not a shame to lose to the greatest player in the world,” after the Sharjah Coca Cola final.
Coming to Rameez Raja and his comments about getting “him” injured. That shows what kind of a person he is. Rameez Raja parades his pedestrian, cliché ridden English on television channels during cricket matches and exposes his abysmal impoverishment in both; the language as well as the game. He can probably say that his words are taken out of context and misinterpreted. It may not hold much water, anyway. All those who watched that match on television heard these words, and they had only one meaning. Your guess is as good as anyone’s.
Contrast this to Ravi Shastri and Sanjay Manjrekar who play second fiddle to the Pakistanis in the commentary box. There was certainly a little doubt about the height in the lbw decision against Ganguly. Neither Shastri nor Manjrekar mentions it in their wise words. When there was an appeal against Yuvraj Singh and it was turned down, you could sense the anger of Aamir Sohail when he said the umpire had got it wrong. Sohail was fuming in the commentator’s seat.
Commentary may be biased, certainly. Look at Tony Greig. Born in South Africa, played for England, settled in Australia, supports Sri Lanka (when Australia is not playing). He is a much liked and respected commentator regardless of his biases because he is an articulate person. The same applies to Harsha Bhogle, Michael Holding, to mention a couple. Inarticulate people like Shastri, Manjrekar and Rameez Raja do not belong to commentators’ box. They must look for other jobs instead of fanning flames of hatred from the commentary box. There are very many people who take commentators and other media personnel really seriously.
Save us from these pretenders, God!

You are just an idiot Asif. Rameez raja and Imran are respected everywhere outside of India. Taking things out of context won't win you any points except amongst the ill-informed.
to be honest, when i heard Ramiz Raja's words....they DID sounds a bit awkward to say the least.....

Xtreme, It just shows your frustration and also proves that what a pathetic loser you are that now you have resorted to calling names. Only a fool and ignorant like you who has no knowledge of cricket can talk about Imran Khan and Ramiz Raja in Same breath. As a cricketer Imran Khan is well respected all over the world and wouldn't even sit in the same commentary room with the likes of Ramiz Raja.
Most of the people who heard Raja saying that agree that it was an stupid statement. If you think or believe otherwise, then it just indicates your mental state right now. If it makes you feel any better then let me tell you Ramiz Raja along with Amir Suhail, Manjrekar and Shastri is the worst and most bigoted team of commnetators we will ever hear.
A century in a time when the whole team and especially batting is out of form and would've been happy if they had scored 173 but he helped em achieve that tough total.....yeh inzi got run out its part of the game plus he started in style by hitting a four but i don't think he would've done anythn as he scored 3 or so against zimbabwe today n saeed was not out on 43 or so.....a great player....yeh its right he signed off in style...
I don’t know what did Ramiz Raja said that sub Indians ki phut gayee! 
Anyways, it was just a joke on behalf of Ramiz, but these paranoid indians take everything so seriously.
Saeed Anwar is truly a great batsman. I feel bad, that he worked so hard to get the century and in the end the team let him down :(.
It is very bad for commentators to say or make such jokes. It shows lack of ethics as well as lack of professionalism. A commentator who dosn't have the bigness of vision to recognize a world beating innings unfold right in front of their eye and give in to petty emotion is unfit to be in that job. In this case as one of the posted articles point out Rameez Raja seems to be neither a commentator nor a decent articulate person. I have head Ravi Shastri and like his cricket talents, his commentary skills are very mediocre too.
Kiski phutee woh to sabne dekhi - Poor Ramiz , I never saw him so frustrated. How many paki players didn’t take the field during Indian batting or Can anyone tell me why was Taufeeq keeping wickets when there was a specialist WK in the team 
Only a retard can think of it as a Joke or Did Raja personally called you from SA that it was a joke on his part ??
What about your guru shastri making fun of Saeeds beard? I am sure you laughed your cheap ass off that…
