Re: Woolmer’s death:embarrassment for Pak?
Read previous post again with open mind.
Just a further explanation, it’s neither about conspiracy theory nor about taking responsibility of job. It’s more about an individual’s character and virtues as a human and sensitivitiy towards family, friends.
Only Inzi knows best why he announced this within hours of his Coach’s death. Neither you nor me.
Imagine a scenario ---- Suppose a person is only earning member of his family and has a decent job.
God forbid, a family member of him expires and simultaneously he has been fired/resigned from his job on the same day.
Will he not allow his family members and himself atleast 1 or 2 days time to overcome the the grief due to loss of a person…or will he mourn his lost job along with thsi?
*Again both are possible depending upon individual’s character. It’s simply a human nature which gets exposed during these rare occasions. *
No doubt Inzi is a human before he is a cricketer!!
Come back to this case…Just assume Inzi scored a century against Zim and after Pakistan defeats Zim, he dedicates his century and match to his coach and then announces retirement still taking entire responsibility of Pakistan’s early world-cup exit as you said above. This will make much more sense, but for sure, his retirement like this will not create sensation of such a high level as it created after Woolmers death.
This made a situtaion like anti-climax or climax after climax.
So called “he was eager to take responibility as soon as possible” is just an interpretation.
On a seperate note…I won’t be surprised, after a few months, if Inzi announces that he has decided to reverse his earlier decision!!
I guess, some Pakistani players have done that before!
