Shoaib Akhtar

His 18 month ban has been over turned and will only be fined.
Just thought you might like to know that.
Or maybe not.

Good. It was a ridiculous ban. It's taken the PCB god knows how long to do what they should have done straight away - give him a fine and a telling off.

Glad as I am that he's got off, I wonder why they even bother with a ban.

Aye ... seems they like cogitating for lengthy spells - having missed a trick at the Oval 2 years ago in getting the match declared a draw
rather than pussying around insisting that an umpire be declared a racist.

Hard to keep track, there's been so many.

Wasn't this for the ginormous dummy spit in the press?

I don't know, criticising the PCB (and let's face it, they aren't really doodh ka dhula), doesn't strike me as having grounds for punishment, let alone a 5 year ban.

The PCB can now have some real fun, because with B-Grade eligible for selection, they don't actually have to pick him...

Pass. Have to wait for one of the Pakistani experts to tear themselves away from the incredibly important Asia Cup. They might know.
