***Official*** Pakistan in England

Was Razzaq dropped?

Here comes Rana now, to prove you wrong. And of course Sajid should be playing cricket for a living - it's better than stocking grocery shelves, as he was before.

Unfortunately it didn't go to plan Clown.

I wonder what he said.
"Well yes. The video did show the ball didn't carry, but the camera puts on 10 pounds, therefore the ball looked almost three times bigger than it actually is and the ball hitting the floor, assuming that the resizing kept the same centre of the ball's progress, was just an optical allusion. So it did carry straight to me. So it has to be out! Change your decision! Change it! You saw what I did to Darrell Hair. If you don't give him out, I'll claim you called me a '**** *******' and the same will happen to you. I'm warning you, I have a different skin pigment and religion and I'm not afraid to use them! Oh, just give him out, ffs."

Funny how people that chastise others for playing the "race card" have no problem doing the same thing themselves. Because obviously if a non-white player is arguing with an umpire, he MUST be using race as a crutch to win the argument. Because they certainly have no other legitimate arguments right? I mean how dare these people show ANY dissent at all? Don't they know their place?

Was Razzaq dropped?

Yep, he was on 6 at the time:

33.5 Yardy to Abdul Razzaq, 1 run, edged and just wide of Strauss at first slip; he got his right hand to it with a low dive. A chance

Yep, your right boss. Apologises.

Well a lot of Pakistan supporters on here seem to think that they are serverly mis treated because they are a different race.

Not at all, its just an argument against an umpire previously which has been blown up by others into a race card. Hence the satire was amusing.

We won a game, which wasn’t a dead rubber or against Ireland, thank ****. Now to level the series on Sunday, or is that too much to ask?

Actually, he did get the same swing that Lewis got. The Poms just played it.

And a good effort it was too. Razzaq's ballistics could easily have knocked the stuffing out of them, but they coasted home. Is it my imagination, or is Strauss on the way to being a decent opener in this form of the game? That's 2 decent knocks in 2 games, against one of the better new ball attacks.

 

[open365]

Well done England, we finaly manage to win a game despite Mahmood's best efforts.

Should Darrel Hair's supporters adopt the logic of the Pakistani media, today's performance by Cheatzi clearly vindicates Hair from any wrong-doing at The Oval.

Belly, Man of the Match (unrightly so - Razzaq deserved it more, but was on the wrong end), has the voice of a 16-year-old.

His also got ginger hair (which he tries his best to hide) and looks like a ferret. But he played well which is the most important thing (I guess).

Grow up. Are you referring to Inzi as a cheat because he thought he claimed a fair catch? And comparing that to what Hair did? How absurd. The comments posted from some people here show how close minded they are at best, and how hateful at worst. Go ahead and defend that beacon of truth, liberty, and justice that is Darryl Hair for all I care. At least don't grasp at straws when making your weak arguments though. To anyone neutral, you come out looking childish and foolish.

No it doesn't. Many sports fans believe that the word of whatever ajudicators there are on the pitch at the time is absolute.

It doesn't matter if its utterly wrong, if players are allowed to wander off if they feel it may be a bit of a wrong decision, then all professional sport may as well be ended now.

Its pathetic, and still no-ones proved Hair AND Doctroves decision was wrong. Even if it was it doesn't matter, it should be argued after the event.

You have to admit that Inzi behaved like a spoilt child today when it all went off?

He isn't the first and he certainly won't be the last or worst but today, he spat it. And was still going on to the umpires about it at least 15 mins after it happened. I honestly thought he was going to go off again when the commentators started talking about Inzi's honour and other such things.

Inzy thought it was a fair catch, evidence says inconclusive.

Darrel Hair thought Pakistan ball tampered, evidence most probably inconclusive.

Stop the difference.

Are they on tonight? I can't see it unless my guide is out of date!

Scratch that, Neil says they're on so must be a rubbish guide.
