Bent PAK allegations rear their head again,unbelievable ! No not really it was always a matter when


The worst part for me is that an outstanding talent like Amir is potentially involved, bent at 18 unreal.

Three times on this tour PAK have been bowled out for record low scores, breaking it again today, I'd like to see the betting patterns for that likelehood.

They're cheating *****. How they have the gall to stand there and claim that the last win was for the people in their country when they're on the take. Ban them all for life.

It's shame that these allegations against Pakistan have been made but i would also add that have been some outstanding English bowling.Swann has been unplayable at time's and Anderson must be the most improved bowler over the past 18 months.

Thumbs up Pietersen dropped from limited overs side.

Serves him right for not putting the effort in. Sounds like he's been throwing the toys out of his baby's pram about it too...

Well he's now "on loan" to Surrey. On loan from who? He left Hampshire.

There are 2 ways of looking at this, either he's a prima dona and throwing his toys out the pram OR he's passionate enough to be fighting for his place in the squad.

He thought he could be clubless and just ***** himself out to the highest bidders in T20 whilst still playing for England, needs to sort his head out.

That last sentence should have ended as follows

Sorry but this is the same old same old from PAK, lying is just a way of life for the PCB.

To suggest the video was made after the event is utter bollox. No professional steps 2 foot over the line, 2 inches maybe.

In any case if found guilty they'll ban them for life only to reinstate them 3 months later, how many times was Shoaib "banned" for life ? 3 that I can recall, plus as least 3 others I can remember in recent history receiving bans only to be reinstated because they needed them.

Time for the ICC to take control of the situation, I just dont see the point of the ICC existing if they allow the PCB to ban players only to continually reinstate them, what are they there for? just a money making organisation with no power imo.

Cash found in the team hotel and the locker room at Lords. Apparently the same cash the new of the world gave them..... they must have counted the serial numbers or something.

I see a former Essex player has been charged with match fixing while another (and Pakistan member) has been let off....

I think it's disgraceful the way that we are continuing with the series just to keep the sponsors happy. It's motivated by the cash pure and simple.

I blame Bell.

Well maybe there's some truth in it? It seems that some England stars will do anything to earn a few bob:
