Shakib banned for failure to disclose approaches

[GIMH]

***** should be banned from CW for this

 

[harsh.ag]

Ugghhh

 

[vcs]

***** should be banned from CW for this

Heard he was illegally approached and invited to post on PakPassion, which he didn't report to the mods

***** can't catch a break

Hong Kong might qualify for the T20 World Cup tomorrow so I've still got some hope.

 

[mr_mister]

Well well well

 

[mr_mister]

Hope there's no hypocrisy and he's treated with the same disdain Amir was by CW

well he didn't commit the same offence so

 

[mr_mister]

And Amir didn't commit the same offence as Hansie but I remember zero sympathy being shown in a thread here. Shakib broke a rule out of what - laziness to report it?

Anyway I genuinely realise this must be a tough time for you since he's your favourite player so I'll leave it for now

 

[cnerd123]

I showed plenty of sympathy for Amir ftr

 

[mr_mister]

Ah okay, kinda thought the whole site universally hated Hansie, Azhar and Amir. My mistake.

People know my stance on fixers not being monsters, hopefully this happening to a really popular loved player changes people's attitudes

 

[Tom Flint]

The messages he was being sent are pretty damming. He was obviously replying and wasn't a guy he had known previously. I think he was probably more guilty than he has been charged with and this is why he has accepted it so easily and released such a casual statement.

A 6-month vacation in the US. Going around the country giving speeches for a hefty fee would be set for him.

Indian bookies really love their country. They would never target players from their own country

Who did in Azhar, Mongia and Jadeja?

In that case, we have to encourage him to post there.

I am talking about current players. Even in Al Jazeera documentary. Most of the fixes according to them were taking place in India matches yet the target was always opposition

 

[sledger]

Good. There is no place for cheats in the game. Absolutely the right decision to ban him.

Has anyone suggested it was not the right decision to ban him?

Strange that you would emphasize that bit.

 

[sledger]

It's not strange at all. I always come in here to call people cheats when they have cheated. This is literally the most unstrange thing I could have posted!
