Haha, Asif ripping it apart and unlikely to lose the drug thing for quite a while. Might've been better for him to have serve out the ban. :p

Will people ever forget?

Asif is different class, four wickets and you be out odds of trying to figure out excuses of batsman error, Amla, Kallis, Smith and AB all got deliveries which they had to play. Played Hashim but South Africa are really in trouble here, Gibbs against Asif, only one winner, me thinks.
Kallis and Amla both played at wide deliveries

Yes, we get it. He should have been banned. You keep saying it on the boards like its going to make a difference to the PCB.

And WADA is challenging the overturn, so its likely he will be banned soon anyway.

I don't know about people but I will never forget and hope before every single ball he bowls he gets for a six.

Well you obviously have moral superiority and aren't afraid to use it, but I think you can spare us. We know what you think.

We can but hope, but knowing my luck he'll get MOS here, and someone at WADA will say "What's this Cricket-aWicket game?"

Other Pakistani bowlers need to start pulling their weight here. This is ridiculous. Kaneria the only one looking dangerous right now, but even he is bowling just average.

Gah! Another no-ball.:mad:

Asif's run up seems to be a bit slower, almost like he is just slowly ambling to the crease. That might have something to do with his pace.

133k seems about right for Asif's fastest delivery. He might be able to bowl faster ones occasionally, but he's a medium pacer not an express quickie.

I distinctly remember him bowling spells in the mid to high 130's earlier, unless I'm imagining things.

A ball shaping away from off stump is a wide?
Not a "wide" but too wide to play at

Kallis' shot was possibly the most lame dismissal I've seen him succumb to in test cricket - short, wide, medium paced nothing ball

That's why Jackman declared that he wouldnt want to see that replay
