Where in the world is Zulqarnain Haider?

[smash84]

Didn't a prominent Pakistani ex-politician who had sought asylum get assassinated a couple of months ago in London? Doesn't sound like the poor guy had/has any good choices.

You are correct. Let's hope Zulqi is safe.

His tongue is a wild thing, needs to be caged.

That scorecard is ridiculous!

Salman Butt - 92* off 25 balls with 14 fours and four sixes at a strike rate of 368 . His other opening partner Nasir Jamshed scored 26* off 12 balls as they chased down 123 runs in 6.1 overs at a run rate of 19.94 an over

Brutal

 

[Xuhaib]

Aamer,Wahab,Kamran,Salman all played the game itstl.

 

[M0rphin3]

Christ, that match has match fixing written all over it. Won't be surprised if PCB is part of all this tbh.

 

[Themer]

There is no way in the world that the PCB can claim that there was nothing untoward in that match. Its a ridiculous scoreline.

 

[four_or_six]

The PCB has suspended Haider.

It's taken what, 48 hours to suspend Haider, and it took days to suspend Asif, Amir and Butt. What a farce that is.

 

[Shri]

Lol, he has retired anyway. A big **** you to the PCB.

 

[Themer]

Yeah that'll show him PCB. Now you've banned another retired player you've really shown who's boss. The whole structure needs pulling down as as things stand they're nothing more than a farce.

 

[TumTum]

Match fixing happens in Pakistani cricket like a daily ritual and they still get away with it.

Correction (I think), the BBC ticker says they've suspended his contract. Not sure that's quite the same thing.

 

[Themer]

"He didn't have confidence in the national team management or Pakistan Cricket Board. If he is such a weak and scared person he should not have played cricket in the first place, particularly not for the national team. " From the Pakistan minister for Sport.

What a ****. Sorry for the coarse language but he is.

I wouldn't be too hard on the lad. Seems to me he had valid reasons to act as he did.

haha

 

[Howe_zat]

I'm not sure it's much news that his contract is suspended. He broke it, that sounds to me like a technicality.

As for calling him weak...

****ers.

 

[Shri]

They have also called the Aussies weak in the past for not touring their country, so its safe to assume the word 'weak' means sanity, intelligence etc in Pakistan.

 

[silentstriker]

How can these people make BCCI look like the model of professionalism and proficiency? The fact that they do makes me hate them so much.

Hey our 24 year old keeper just gave up his life as a professional sports star and retired because he is afraid for his life and the lives of his family. I know, let's call him weak and suspend his contract. That'll show 'em how much we've improved!
