Cheats XI

[Smudge]

Well, yes.

Considering there's also a thread about it on OT.

 

[SJS]

Did anyone mention WG?

 

[Goughy]

Did anyone mention WG?

He got an honorable mention when I named my XI

 

[FRAZ]

Voltman - Read carefully, I didn't actually say it, Waqar Said it. I was just being the wise messenger spreading the words of wisdom.

Exactly !!!!!!!! Thats what I wanted to explain ...

[howardj]

Greg Chappell would be a definite.

 

[FRAZ]

A Simple Yes/No would have been suffice but you bringing up Sachin/Dravid either to justify it or to somehow prove it if they are guilty, then yes he is as well. To answer that yes Sachin/Dravid are guilty of Ball Tampering and hence they cheated. Whole world knows that Waqar/Wasim/Imran/Shoaib tampered with the ball and we dont really need a Chris Pringle to say that.

When did he actually "cheat" ?

 

[steds]

More "unsportsmanlike" than cheating...

You mean, Trev Chappell.

Telling someone to do something isn't cheating...

Strictly speaking it wasn't cheating to bowl underarm anyway, just not particularly sporting.

I agree. I liken it to bodyline.

 

[BoyBrumby]

I agree. I liken it to bodyline.

Doubt Trev cracked many skulls with that kinda bowling....

Nearly got his own cracked by McKechnie's bat, IIRC.

Can't see the earlier argument that Greg wasn't as guilty as Trev as he "only" gave the instructions: surely he's more guilty than his kid brother, no?

Think Chappelli said more or less the same thing, didn't he?

If I tell you to go murder BoyBrumby (Which i'm not saying dont do...) am I guilty of murder?

There's just a *slight* difference between that and your captain on a cricket pitch telling you how to bowl.

Actually, thinking about it, the answer to your question is probably yes, anyway. But that is an entirely separate matter.

Yes he did. May have been in the commentary box at the time.
